FW Posted June 28, 2007 Author Share Posted June 28, 2007 Spent an afternoon on this today and got it finnished at last. I decided to scrap the entire McCormick cab and fit an original Ertl one, because the UH one was not big enough and the wrong shape. I have also added a dew extra details. Will get some photos up later and see what you think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FW Posted June 30, 2007 Author Share Posted June 30, 2007 Thank's everyone that is very encouraging to hear. I have started making a very few more if anyone is interested. If so please get in touch, even if you want a slight variation i.e. number of loader , I'm sure I could help you out. Also if anyone has an Ertl that they wanted doing, aslong as it has an exhaust, cab and bonnet intact I'd be more than happy to do one for you.

FW Posted June 30, 2007 Author Share Posted June 30, 2007 Not sure if I said (most likely ), but is mounted on a UH McCormick chasis, re-shaped grill and a UH Ergos front weight, as they resemble Maxxum weight set's the most. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Brown 1410 power! Posted June 30, 2007 Share Posted June 30, 2007 Well it turned out very well so it did i may have a crack at scratch building a DB 1410 model and then maybe a 1455xl if i come across a 956 ertl chassis. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
