Cheshire Farm Models Posted October 1, 2020 Share Posted October 1, 2020 One I did a while back, I dont know if it got on here or not. One of a few ones I wanted to keep hold of in my cabinet. Not done many Fords, I'm a green man on the whole. But this was enjoyable. I'd like to do another one. Probably be a bigger 6600 though for me. Getting hard to find though these days the base models... shame as they have allot of potential and strip down nicely. Back wheels can be a little tight but that's it.

Cheshire Farm Models Posted October 1, 2020 Author Share Posted October 1, 2020 Martin's your Ford man. I'll hold my hands up I can fix them... but I would be hard pushed to tell you anything technical about them unless its green or red ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes you are correct, I got it the wrong way round, it is a 3600 engine in a 4600 rear end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mb86 Posted October 2, 2020 Share Posted October 2, 2020 I think it was the whole front end of the 3 6, not just the engine. I might have a brochure hiding away somewhere or it will probably have info on it in the ford bible. I’ll have to dig it out and check. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 4100 is a 3.0 litre 52 HP ..The 3600 is a 2.8 47 HP. The 4600 a 3.3 L 62 Hp as is the 4000. That's the power difference .. 4100 on a 4600 rear end .. no tombstone up the front ether. The 4110 uses the 4600 3.3L derated to 58 HP.. 4610 same 3.3 upped to 64Hp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks mate, it certainly is nice to see a smaller tractor in general. I seem to always be doing big 6 cylinder power houses and these get over looked.

justy 46 Posted October 2, 2020 Share Posted October 2, 2020 I done a 4600 and 4000 also myself a while back. Your right in saying the Ford 3 pots are very overlooked in both 1/16 & espeacily 1/32 scale.The 4000 was probably Ford's best seller. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
