IAINH1973 Posted November 12, 2018 Share Posted November 12, 2018 Good looking model. It was a shame we never got the FTF model from Britains all those years ago! Maybe you could make a 100 or so and distribute to all those that put a deposit down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stehos Posted November 14, 2018 Share Posted November 14, 2018 The 944 turned out really well Ian. Thinks it is getting time to get in contact with you again very soon! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you, I've often thought of doing limited runs of 100 or so models, so that could happen at some point. I'm unaware of the FTF Britains model, was that the Ford 5000 highway tractor?

IAINH1973 Posted November 15, 2018 Share Posted November 15, 2018 No , before that one Britain’s we’re going to do a county 944 based on the new 5000 skid for the forum. It eventually fell through and everyone who ordered got their deposit back. The whole thing dragged on a couple of years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cheshire Farm Models Posted November 15, 2018 Share Posted November 15, 2018 Surely we can sort something out Ian ? I’d love to get In on part of the build if I could. 1 hour ago, tabmodels said: Thank you, I've often thought of doing limited runs of 100 or so models, so that could happen at some point.

Here is the same machine in possibly a later photo with a grill guard fitted. I would like to see the plough in more detail, would make for an interesting model.

I’ll speak to Andy see if we can come up with a plan I think building 100 of anything would turn us loopy. Although I am prepared to do it. Would require months of work no doubt. Id love to do another Sanderson a more refined attempt. Especially with the help of brochures now that I didn’t have from the start last time. Maybe I could do that and incorporate the ftf theme into the build somewhere. Worth looking into. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
