Gav836 Posted May 22, 2007 Share Posted May 22, 2007 As most of you know, I'm a big fan of Renault tractors so I thought I'd have a go at giving one a make over. In between beet harvesters this morning I carried out a chassis transplant on a Britains 103-54 using a UH Valtra C chassis, still got a lot of detailing to do but I think it's a vast improvement on the original, let me know what you all think Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gav836 Posted October 9, 2007 Author Share Posted October 9, 2007 Finally got back to this one today, have now glued all the Renault bodywork in place along with the Valtra seat, pedals, steering wheel and gearsticks, paintwork is a bit dodgy on floorpan at the minute but will get another coat asap. Just needs new decals and some trimmings on the cab now What do you all think to it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, I used a Dremel with a cutting disc to get the seat base out, fairly straight forward but you need to make sure that you cut it in the right places from underneath Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
