Lord Ferguson Posted April 24, 2008 Share Posted April 24, 2008 :D - well it seems to be more Massey than Ford thankfully... looks like a well thoughtout conversion as well... so who's gonna make it in 1:32 scale then I bet it's the ONLY 1130 with Air conditioning :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nashmach Posted April 24, 2008 Share Posted April 24, 2008 Now that looks comfy - any pictures of inside the cab Reminds me of the Fordson major with 6cyl engine and Q cab and 600 styling in Stuart Gibbard's book - bet that is an animal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rich.new holland Posted April 25, 2008 Share Posted April 25, 2008 is that ih weights too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
britainswomble Posted April 26, 2008 Share Posted April 26, 2008 I bet the owner of that is really proud of his work. What a fantastic looking conversion. The cab doesn't look at all out of place on the tractor. A nice combination of modern comforts and classic tractor. If the engine's turbo'd, it's probably putting out about 140 hp and those old Perkins 6.354's (That type if that's what it is) are usually pretty quiet too. I' love to see it in the flesh and have a quick drive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pudding Posted April 26, 2008 Author Share Posted April 26, 2008 would love to see them marky i think this guy loves this tractor, spent 5 grand US buying it, 20000 fixing it and 500man hours you put that in context with used IH and JD prices in the US, and i don't think he did bad parts are still ok to find just the radial pump on the crankshaft and that that are getting a little expensive Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
New Hollander Posted April 27, 2008 Share Posted April 27, 2008 although it looks like a Ford cab, it isn't. It has a Chinese Foton cab. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
allis8550 Posted April 27, 2008 Share Posted April 27, 2008 although it looks like a Ford cab, it isn't. It has a Chinese Foton cab. That's interesting, i was thinking it might be a Bueler Genesis cab. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
