If you'd like it back and it is yours i'd happily sell it back to its rightful home. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justy 46 Posted October 23, 2020 Share Posted October 23, 2020 (edited) The cab roof on the UH seems to look too big for the cab itself compared to the Marge and the rear rims are also too big considering they came from the 7810..but then the bonnet and decals look better on the UH and so does the front axle vs the orginal Marge axle with mudguards(not the one above ) both have their ups and downs, but I would be favouring the Marge in my view overall.

justy 46 Posted October 26, 2020 Share Posted October 26, 2020 Like that Paul. The old Britains 6600 is one off my personal favourites and you certainly smartened up that one. Looks good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul Palmer Posted November 8, 2020 Author Share Posted November 8, 2020 (edited) paint hardened off,so tyres and hubs put back on,i have turned the front wheels around,as on Phils 7726S,also shortened the front hubs as they are way to long,i have drilled out the holes on the rear wheels so if i ever want to pop the rear wheel weights back on i can,thats it,all done Edited November 8, 2020 by Paul Palmer 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phil phoenix Posted November 8, 2020 Share Posted November 8, 2020 Its turned out well Paul, and a nice touch with the removable wheel weights...................my problem with the entire Univrsal Hobbies MF7600-7700 UH models is the middle cab post looks too wide! This is because UH in their wisdom decided to detail black etching all around the edge of the cabs glass, spoiled the look of the model for me. However the S style bonnet is very nice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CX820Joe Posted November 8, 2020 Share Posted November 8, 2020 The Massey looks great Paul, I had one too but I didn't like the wheel weights - i tried to remove them but was worried about damaging the rims. I gave up in the end and sold it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Palmer Posted November 8, 2020 Author Share Posted November 8, 2020 thanks Joe,the rear wheel weights come off very easily,but leave a bit of glue residue on the rims,but i sanded that off 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
