Deere-est Posted July 5, 2007 Share Posted July 5, 2007 She is under way - not going to be easy due to irregularitis between the two different manufacturers of these models but I have made a start and masked her up to show where she is heading.

Deere-est Posted July 5, 2007 Author Share Posted July 5, 2007 what is the differance \ i cant tell \ That'll be the masking tape doing it's work!!! The cabs are different sizes, the yellow one is ever so slightly narrower but this won't actually show anyway. What is tricky however is that the topline roof overhangs the front too far as the rear part of the cab is not deep enough to bring it back flush. However, unlike the yellow Newray truck pre-cut up, the Joytoy bullnose has a seperate sunvisor so I can replace this where I need to to hide the overhang slightly. Lot's of taping, eying up etc before I fix anything. Not doing any more on it now. Just a l;ittle but at a time and a good think inbetween. Thansk for the comments all.

Cheers everyone. Now I know it looks good to other people I will do a bit more to it.
