BenJamison7740 Posted January 29, 2018 Share Posted January 29, 2018 Hi all I am about to tackle my first conversion, a Ford TW 15 super q. I am starting with a Britains tw 15 q cab. Where would i get a super q cab for this? Also what others changes do i need to make?. I also want to respray the model with real ford paint. If this all goes to plan ( unlikely), i would like to add a realistic rear linkage, similar to a Wiking one. Many thanks, Ben Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mb86 Posted January 30, 2018 Share Posted January 30, 2018 Look forward to seeing this Ben, I made one using a marge TW so it already had the SQ cab and realistic linkage. I think there was a similar conversion to what you are planning on here a while ago, he used a SQ cab roof off the old britains 5610/tw/30 series from the 1980's/90's you will need new decals a change of colour on the mudguards and grille and the interior changing from blue to black. Basically, from a model point of view, except the roof and mudguards, the force II were the same tractor as the previous q cabbed t-dubs. For a realistic linkage there are kits available from artisan32 but these aren't accurate but nicely detailed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
