CMB Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 Converting a Britains Dynapac road roller into a lighter, towed one. The prospect of mucking it up is putting me off a bit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My Tractor is sexy Posted January 25, 2011 Share Posted January 25, 2011 I have bought Britains Ford 7710 and i must take away the tires,beacouse they're so tiny. On my desk i found some tires,rims and it looks like it fit well.The mudguards are from UH MAssey Ferguson 5480. I wonder......if that blue beasty would be 7710 or 7910.With wheels big like these i think it would better to be 7910. What do ya think? In the future on this model: -PMA hitch -detailed interior -Glassed cab -mirrors -maybe front hitch Photo: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pj witch Posted January 25, 2011 Share Posted January 25, 2011 nice, do a 7910 as the 7710 is really a TW 20 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IH885XLMAN Posted January 25, 2011 Share Posted January 25, 2011 Just a bit of alteration to a model, just the red paint work and roof to do and the wheels is she gonna be a 1985-86 case ih there mate :P you could shave the fenders down aswell i think they had skinny rear fenders but not the little black recess like on the 885s (they did have the type i described in brouchuer) on the wieght frame is it easy to knock up one or what looks good but it is a nash after all (its going to anyway) cheers nigel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Light Land Posted January 25, 2011 Share Posted January 25, 2011 why do need a roof over the silage pit? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deere-est Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 Can be used for other purposes when it is empty, Ol. There are as many covered silage pits over here as open ones mate. Rob you must put up some photos of this, I'm guessing it will look a bit smart!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MDFord Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 My nephew will be pleased tomorrow, it's taken me ages to do this for him Cold shed + a slight lack of modelling motivation lately being the reason for the slow progress Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farmermilkin82.050 Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 they look really well, did you build a new frame for it??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MDFord Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 Thanks James, They are just made by cutting the Britains Marston butt and chassis down in length. If you do a search you'll find quite a few on here that people have done over the years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deere-est Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 My work bench is littered with part painted plastic kits. Basically a load of leftovers which I will use as clutter in a future workshop project. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deere-est Posted January 28, 2011 Share Posted January 28, 2011 The current lot isn't too bad in all fairness as there is not a great deal off parts which need assembling. Painting it all is still pretty arduous though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
