JCB BLOKE Posted January 12, 2014 Author Share Posted January 12, 2014 One short wheel based, one long wheel based. Wheels and tyres custom made to get a good 900 x 16 wheel and tyre. HIAB found at a truck show and modified to suit, and a lot of time and patience! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stabliofarmer Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 Stunner of a model yet again weathering is top notch and the custom wheels finish her off great. 101 forward control next hey? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JCB BLOKE Posted January 12, 2014 Author Share Posted January 12, 2014 Thanks for all the comments everybody. The 101 would be a good model to do James, but I have a strict cut off point of 1980 for my diorama......the 'story' behind this Fwd Control is its a 1964 motor that had gone into the D & H Plant Hire workshop, been rebuilt to its current form and put back out to work. The actual vehicle it's modelled from is about half a mile up the road, and works everyday in the surrounding area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tractorman810 Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 that's a tidy number indeed mate, seen a few of those around in the past, but not in a long time now, still see a few of the flatter fronted newer ex military ones about mind, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
