Thanks to the rest of you for your comments as well,do you folks think the red wheel centres look OK ?

sorry but i don't agree with the rest for red wheel centers , the only 135's about now with the red wheels are concours tractors , the mainstay workers on farms today have the gray wheels , every where you look in magazines & tractor shows are red wheel 135's . tooooooo much of that nonsense  :(

steve you know what you like as do we all , but for me your tractors look great with the plain silver , they look great with the red as well  :) :) :)

personal preference for me says silver  :)

VERY true Mr B... Very true..

It was only the very first versions that had the red centres... Like you say... it's done to death out on the vintage circuit..

Personally... I do like this one in red though...

So Steve... One for Marcus in Silver.... One for marky in red please  ;D

Customers hey.. who'd ave em  ::)

Well here's my two penneth.........and you all know I am dumb when it comes to the tractor front.  :D :D :D

I prefer the silver myself, as I thought that is what they were supposed to look like. However I am undecided on the silver front wheels, but they look okay in the red.  I wonder if this is because I am familiar with the Britains version and the front wheels were smaller. ???  :-\

Personal preference for the red wheels. Something a bit different.

Would this not make a 130 as well as a 135

Guess it would... but it would need a different bonnet on it...

I also had a play with one of the left-over fergie bonnets and tried to make it more 35x - ish ! ;):-[

Its difficult making it but this is what I have done so far.

It will look better with some decals fitted.

Thanks chaps for the kind words and yes Marky you can have one of each ,no probs.I think I can get the bonnet a bit better on the 35x though,I will keep trying because I seem to have te bonnets all over the place.

Thanks Steve... I reckon I can produce the front badge for you if you wan't it... I have now scanned a Massey logo which will scan down to something really small... experimenting for Sean at the moment.... but I can send you some files you can print yourself on the correct paper if that helps Steve  :-\

That would be a massive help Marky ,thanks very much .

I was going to use corgi 65 decals and modify them but your idea is loads better. :)

Just mailed you a file Steve... check your inbox and let me know what you think mate  ;)

looking good steve , (still not keen on the red wheel centers ) is that 135 bonnet an original or a repo , as the sides look a bit deep , ideal for a 165 ?  185 ? :) :)

Not far away now Marky,I won't keep you waiting too much longer. ;)

;D:P :P :P

I think you have to enter both the Maseys at Spalding Steve... I am sure they will win a prize mate...  ;)
