Popular Post 844john Posted July 12, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted July 12, 2019 (edited) Sort of a natural progression from my 74 inters, I've now started on the subsequent 84 and 85 series. First up is a start on a 784, making full use of the Sekura cabs that I've started building Edited July 13, 2019 by 844john 23 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Gavin, working at Donny on the 85's makes you the closest thing to royalty that I know! I always intended to visit the factory years ago, but like a lot of things i never got round to it until it was too late.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

844john Posted July 14, 2019 Author Share Posted July 14, 2019 Thanks Dominik, there's no such thing as "only" a 674. That's a fairly early one, pre Q cab, but it's a very straight, original looking tractor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post 844john Posted July 14, 2019 Author Popular Post Share Posted July 14, 2019 Managed to steal an hour today and started on the cab interior and dash console of the 784, I hate doing dashboards as they're always a tricky shape, but we got there in the end 13 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
