Cheshire Farm Models Posted February 1, 2020 Share Posted February 1, 2020 Another that slipped the forum from last year! After my first attempt at a claas jaguar 75 I was keen to make this one better. A friend of mine and fellow collector was keen to get his hands on a 75E so I agreed to build it him. Completely underestimated the labour as this is 100% handmade. His budget didnt allow it to be as detailed as I wanted it but still crammed allot in looking back, and it all actually moved the drawbar and spout etc. Anyway here it is... I will definitely make another as there was parts I wasnt 100% happy with. But then again I am very critical of my own work if I'm being honest, overall it looks good and I was fairly pleased so I cant complain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You should see the 85E if you think this is a fair chopper. That baby has a perkins v8 on her back. Youd soon be up the field with her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Few things that arent 100% as I say budget was fairly tight at £150. To get everything right as I wanted it you could easily double that number and some.

Christoph1972 Posted February 1, 2020 Share Posted February 1, 2020 Wow, excellent work! Very good painted and a lot of details! Do you have pictures from the original machine? I couldn’t find pictures of a “self” propelled Jaguar 75E. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have used a 60e about 2 years ago, there genuine claas machines I believe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 85e is far more impressive but I could literally find about 3 pictures of one and they wasnt great angles to even consider building one.

Cheers alf, would love to make the 85e to go with it. In fact a full line up of engine driven ones would be great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
