John Deere 6930

[Cheshire Farm Models]

I cant count how many of these models I've done over lockdown for customers, must be around 15 or 20 and I forgot to drop the odd one on here. And i have thoroughly enjoyed each one surprisingly. 

I've been buying the orange wiking 6930's John Deeres fully respraying them and rebuilding them. Hoping to get a few more done after I finish up a few trailer builds. 

I mainly turned them into 7530s and 7430s as if your being correct the bonnets are incorrect to be badged as a 6930. 

I did a few for a chap in Ireland with the correct bonnets on from Aaron Moore, and before the obvious is pointed out I appreciate they still arent strictly correct. The cab wants dropping a touch and the wheel base shortening. But the customer was more than happy just swapping the bonnet. And to be honest with just a bonnet change and smaller wheels it does look correct. 

And more importantly compared to a Wiking 7530 it does appear to be smaller which is what I was trying to achieve. 

Anyway out of the two I made this was my favourite and the most trick one of the two.

This looks great, really impressive build.

I seem to recognise the wheels, what are they from?

Sorry for the slow reply mate. Thanks for the kind words. The wheels for this build was off a Universal Hobbies Fendt the white limited edition one was cheapest. Cant remember the number. Just a tad smaller gives it that appearance that it is a smaller tractor the the 7430/7530.

Thank you mate. My most favourite out them all. I really need to do myself one. I have a few orange ones sat in my cupboard off Gary Thompson I am going to do for myself before Christmas. Gotta make a few more to sell first though to warrant keeping 2 or 3 !
