FNHIR Posted December 21, 2006 Share Posted December 21, 2006 a Ford 4630/5030? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FNHIR Posted December 22, 2006 Author Share Posted December 22, 2006 I've been considering attempting one in the near future, but I fear it would be too much of a challenge for a novice like moi. I'm thinking a TL chassis with a modded 5610 bonnet and grill, TL cab with modded roof might look ok Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tractorman810 Posted December 23, 2006 Share Posted December 23, 2006 can do a bit later on mate, just of out ,but i have a spare opu cab from a project i am doing, bought 2 in just incase, so with a small bit of work it might be possible,also got a idea for a uh cab that might do it to again with work, but got to buy one of the chassis first Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IH885XLMAN Posted December 23, 2006 Share Posted December 23, 2006 I would say more explorer type from sekura OPU would be too square i think Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJB1 Posted December 26, 2006 Share Posted December 26, 2006 considering the shallow depth of the bottom half of the cab , i think a decent cab to work from would be the little britains ford /new holland ,can't remember the number offhand but it's the same sort of size as the mf 362 , just need to shorted the bottom half of the doors Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IH885XLMAN Posted December 26, 2006 Share Posted December 26, 2006 I know where you can wait a minuete ,Can you remember that grey cab I got off ebay from that frank martin guy i have still got it the only way i could describe it would be like a marshall explorer cab with the vents above the front windscreen would that do for the ford \ :'( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJB1 Posted December 27, 2006 Share Posted December 27, 2006 matter of fact just had a look at the siku 5635 & that cab looks about right , just need to change the roof Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IH885XLMAN Posted December 27, 2006 Share Posted December 27, 2006 im sure this was for a marshall tractor i have the floor-pan for it aswell wouldent this do for the 4630 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SPN Posted December 27, 2006 Share Posted December 27, 2006 I'd suggest a TN75D chassis (particularly the rear wheels), JQ4020 front wheels, narrowed & shortened "5610" bonnet & grille, and modified 5635 cab (or poss 6635 cab). Alternatively, chop one of your 4 cylinder 10 series! (Only kidding!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ihatepoundland Posted December 27, 2006 Share Posted December 27, 2006 im sure this was for a marshall tractor i have the floor-pan for it aswell wouldent this do for the 4630 If you have a marshall cab, please build a marshall! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IH885XLMAN Posted December 28, 2006 Share Posted December 28, 2006 If you have a marshall cab, please build a marshall! If I use the cab it will be on a marshall but im thinking of ways to marry it up to a scaledown leyland maybe a 702 or 804 dunno yet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ihatepoundland Posted December 28, 2006 Share Posted December 28, 2006 The world needs a decent Marshall 100! Look at the bonnet, so easy! http://www.farmtoysforum.com/forum/index.php?topic=8997.0 I bought the same cab from the same guy with this plan in mind, but mine never turned up and ebay refunded me so I've no idea what went on there.
