Niels Posted March 19, 2013 Share Posted March 19, 2013 Sorry Sean I will go shame myself . Your a 100 percent correct, it is a Vicon: http://www.midsuffolkagriphotos.co.uk/gallery/gp2060.htm Here's one in Vicon-Greenland livery. Vicon/MF 510 here: http://www.agriaffaires.co.uk/used/conventional-till-seed-drill/2429760/vicon-lz-510.html with Vicon clearly displayed on the 'computer'. It does look very similar to Roger though: http://www.agriaffaires.co.uk/used/conventional-till-seed-drill/3276544/roger-r608.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tractorman810 Posted June 24, 2013 Author Share Posted June 24, 2013 well its been a while, but i managed to get some time up in the loft today, so put my two uh 600 series convos onto the layout, so ash trees now running 2 x 690, the recent uh version, and my scratch built one from 5 years odd ago, with its 80 loader , and my new 698t short wheel base) . everything seems ok up there, and no issues bar a couple of the water slide decals are coming off the pettit trailer, but I have spares for that. been pondering where I will be putting the new house into the layout to, I may well be removing the big barn at the back for it?? reusing the bricks etc for a new smaller barn tucked away to one side with the muck heap, but first I need to finish the house, which is 75% done . all three together, ash tree just needs one new build, which I will get round to sometime to complete the line up when we sold up , a mf 290 which will run the loader but the self built one is pretty much spot on sixe wise the the uh models 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MF-ROB Posted June 25, 2013 Share Posted June 25, 2013 Looking good Sean would love a real MF698T (short wheelbase) at home will you be putting a nice UH 3080 into the fleet at Ash tree Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tractorman810 Posted June 25, 2013 Author Share Posted June 25, 2013 The 3080 will get done , it's in the shed with new rear rims on the original tyres and a 1/2 built 915 loader. Proper mounting etc to the chassis and the beams etc altered , infact it's fixed one end to the chassis just got the front mounts to do with a few other tweaks before its stripped down for paint Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
