JanMF Posted January 20, 2018 Share Posted January 20, 2018 After long time I finally finished this model. The chassis is of the UH MF1080, combined with the body of the MF590. The rear tires and a part of the rim are from the MF2640. The headlights are also of the 2640. Jan Lodewijks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheshire Farm Models Posted January 23, 2018 Share Posted January 23, 2018 1 hour ago, Fenside MF said: Dad has a photo of the 590 4wd he drove with that same colour chassis. It was a turbo one too, they had a 595 and due to the rear end issues sent it back and had a 590 instead and to compensate for some of the power loss they had the opico turbo version. The estate farm he worked on from 1979 to 1985 Or something like that. They had 11 Masseys mainly 500 series. Me and dad are both 500 series enthusiasts but don’t have much knowledge on these coloured chassis versions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
