tabmodels Posted March 23, 2018 Author Share Posted March 23, 2018 I've decided to build two at the same time, one will be a commissioned model with floatation tyres and rear mounted slurry tanker. The other will be the agricultural version with standard rims and rear linkage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mb86 Posted March 23, 2018 Share Posted March 23, 2018 Looking fantastic Ian, those flotation tyres look just right, they will keep her above ground with a full tank. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Martin, I have to say I really like those tyres, I think that wheel and tyre combination always suited the forward control. The rims have been remoulded with Countys eight stud pattern instead of the ten Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
