tabmodels Posted February 19, 2017 Share Posted February 19, 2017 Commissioned Ford 8210 converted from a Britains TW-15. Steering knuckles got the chop to make a narrower fixed axle using Britains front wheels with the TW-15 centres refitted. Axle was moved forward slightly and front weights were added. Britains 7600 rear wheels added and chopped the rear linkage to make it look more realistic. Moffett control levers mounted inside the cab and rear window 'opened'. Decals drawn up along with registration plate and a beacon fitted to the roof. Scratch built Moffett Bushmaster hedge cutter with fully movable arm.

tabmodels Posted February 20, 2017 Author Share Posted February 20, 2017 Thanks for the kind comments everyone, especially MadMark . Udimore, Ciaran's work is amazing, I saw his Moffetts at a local show and was blown away by the detail. He inspired me to have a go at the Moffett and this is my first attempt. I make mine from ABS styrene instead of brass though brass would be the ticket Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
