allis8550 Posted June 27, 2006 Share Posted June 27, 2006 Just finished this one , a conversion of ERTL's AC8550 to a 7580, shortened and narrowed the bonnet, shortened the chassis, added grab handles , lights , a Siku linkage, a few details in the cab , new glazing and dual wheels.

ihatepoundland Posted June 27, 2006 Share Posted June 27, 2006 Can't say I'm at all familiar with Allis to really appreciate what you have done but she looks tidy, any chance of comparative pictures to the real thing? (i'm too lazy to look for them ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ihatepoundland Posted June 27, 2006 Share Posted June 27, 2006 Thanks for the pictures, I had a look for the big one to compare Yeah, looks great, noticed you went for the larger style decal, was there a reason for Allis changing this?
