I think there would surely be a demand for classic Claes/Clayson/NH combines from the M103 right up to the TX series. I'd love to see an 8100 and a 7400 in 1:32, but both were niche models in their day, so not sure how much demand there would be for them in model form. It seemed like every other combine was a NH in the 80s so I'm certain there would be demand. I was thinking 81/82 from replicagri as they were aimed at the French market just like the 7400 and 7910 (which is also like them to produce!)

Even in France & Beligum .. I remember 2 Fritzmeir cabbed 74s around localy years ago.. One contractor had one on a NH 717 Chopper backed up by a few 76s & 66s carting.. If Replicagre were to do Fords .. could see them early 6cyl Fords being done alright.. A 7910 & 8210 are much the same & both could be done on the same tooling...But the 81 is the one I would crave for the most & I reckon the classic NH combines will eventually surface from ether UH, ROS or Replicagri..

I didn't realise there were any 74s this side of the channel. Do you know if those were imported by the owners? A 79 is just a non turbo 82 isn't it?

I remember the ad in the Farmers Journal when I were a lad. I've never seen a Fritz 7400. Truly the forerunner to the 7810. The 7910 and 8210 are both derated TW5s mated to 7710 back ends. The same tractor with a different tweak to the fuel pump. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought 79 and 82's preceded the tw 5's which were brought in with the force II range and also had the non load bearing block and used chassis rails like the rest I the t dubs unlike the 82 and 79's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The same tractor with a different tweak to the fuel pump. To be honest ... I think half the Fords in Ireland back then were imported from Beligum . Fritz 7A Fords were as common as Q crabbed ones.. Probably depended on the dealer.. I know of lots of secondhand Fords also imported from the UK by Ford dealers. Our own 4000 came from a large estate in England secondhand threw Coleman's in Millstreet . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also think the 7400 and 8100 used a truck engine, whereas the 7810, 7910 and 8210 used the TW engine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lexion580 Posted August 13, 2016 Share Posted August 13, 2016 Has anyone purchased the 1640 Axial Flow? What are your thoughts on the quality? Some of the photos I've seen shows the reel is poorly made?, also can the header be put on the optional header trailer that they sell? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Super quality, header fits on the trailer, almost perfect, corn header should have bin 6 row and top of the grainbin should not have a lid on imo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
