sparrow legs Posted August 11, 2006 Share Posted August 11, 2006 do the wheels steer? im on with making one, the 6920s is stripped but waiting for the 3350 to arrive, not sure if it will stand too tall if axle steers. thinking of putting the brown interior into the silver 6520 and placing the 3350 axle onto a jd 4020? and placing the 2wd axle off that onto a mf 6180 \ (as 4c would say too much time on my hands) i wish got to use all the bits up and sell them as ive spent hundreds on models in the past 3 months, collection looks good but bank balance is low Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PDC Posted August 12, 2006 Share Posted August 12, 2006 be interesting to see what they'd make on e-bay mark yeah i want one as well what are the wheels originally from then ? ,& could this be done on the later style ertl JD 6000series ? If you look at the 6910 model I built Marcus,I used Siku 6920 wheels,I built one for a guy who didn't want to go to the expence of two tractors joined together, so he just had a 6410 on the wheels and front axle like OLD FORD has done with the 3350 ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sparrow legs Posted August 12, 2006 Share Posted August 12, 2006 the 4055 series would be great marcus, we have a local farmer come with a 4255 and do our ploughing with a 6 furrow dowdswell and press, its a lovely beast (still love my 3040 thoe ) i dont know how you would beef the bonnet up, needs a row of lights made into the nose cone for a start. love the mud guards old ford, how do you make the lights on the front of them?
