A couple of reds!


Recommended Posts

Hi all,

 

Started the 5150 a while back and the 1056xl quite recently. The 5150 is one of Ian Leathers that I bought of Ebay with odd mirrors and needed some tlc! So I removed the old mirrors and carefully sanded the cab back. I then put mirrors and arms of a UH McCormick mx115 as these are very similar to the mirrors on the earlier models. I then touched up the paint work and made a few modifications to the cab so it fitted as well as I could get it to! I also added a new exhaust and a beacon. All I need to do now is sort out the right hand side steps.

My second Case conversion is a 1056xl. Based on the Britains model I added wheels and tires off an UH McCormick MXU175, a modified Repliagri front linkage.

Both together

Now that is a conversion, looks spot on.

 

Am I the only one that can't figure out why Three Oaks great looking trailers don't have rams on the back door? It sort of spoils them a bit for me

I see what you mean, surely for £85 they can find the money to add a bit of tube to make a ram and just finish of a nice model
