Massey Ferguson 2680


Recommended Posts

Hello,

I started last week, with a new project. (my 8280 isn't ready yet, but I need to think some things for that tractor)

I use the following parts:

Fronttires: Deutz K100 UH

Rear: McCormick MTX 175 UH

Frontaxle: McCormick MTX 175 UH

Anyway; here are a few pictures:

With the steering axle.

With rear mounting, it's gonna be the same system like Ziko used on his JD 3650.  ;)

Thanks for the comment, Lord Ferguson!

I'm gonna order new decals, new rearfenders, and I'm gonna paint the tractor in the right(and original) colors!  ;) I'm thinking also about a PMA rearhitch.

Greets,

Wow! That looks great, I am waiting on wheels/axles for my 590. . . I will have to have a go at my 2680 next. You've started with a brilliant bit of work with those wheels. Can't wait for more progress! :)

Thank you for the reactions!

@Tractorman810: Sounds good, do you maybe have some pictures?

@Deere-est: I love 590's, my grandpa had one, so that's a tractor what becomes a new project.  ;)

I hope that the spraycans are at the dealer tomorrow, then I can paint the chassis, and make a start with the interior.

sharp hobby knife and time along with plasters for slipages :D :D :D,

they are relativly simple to do, just keep scoring along the doors shape on the cab, and with care it will pop out after a few passes, i tend to put foam inside mine to stop the cab breaking as you push, for hinges i use 1/32nd thickness brass rod drilled into the cab at the top and the door and arch at the bottom, remember to drill the holes at angles to match the door cut out other wise it wont work right,

Thanks for the reactions!

My paint is at the dealer right now, so this week I'm gonna spray the chassis in the right color. If that's ready, I need to wait to the end of Juli, because the new fenders are not coming earlier.

Greets,

Niels

What a dust!

But, it's almost finished!

The only thing there is to do, is getting the frontaxle(new one!, a Joal), to the chassis, and paint it, and make some end delays, to hide the screws.  :D

And the interior:

I hope you like it!

And do you maybe have an idea, what I can put behind this tractor?
