Simon Posted December 2, 2008 Share Posted December 2, 2008 Looks beautiful Mark, I want it sooooo much, it's perfect, right down to the little side light / indicator pods on the mudguards, I'm in love .... Only one tiny weeny thing which would finish it off now.... get that rib off the MTX [presume they're MTX] fenders..... I took mine back with a file and ultra fine sand paper on the TM and blew them over with primer and satin black aerosol and they look much more 'Ford-ey'... http://www.farmtoysforum.com/forum/index.php?topic=24613.135 - 4th picture down, in need of another coat of black paint..... Oh, and another thing I noticed....there's no steps on the 5610...?! What's next for the MD love then....? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ahhhhh gotcha (it's a 6610) you had better speak to Dave Purdue about that one Simon As for the red - I've got to get a donor model and try and decide what rear wheels would suit it could take a while Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hang on a minute.....you could be twisting my arm here mate well massey massive or not you have to admire the lengths the opposition will go to ,to try & compete & ford didn't do too badly . yes it was taken on my travels mark , but when i walked up to it for a look round it wasn't as large as i remember them, i remember the TW's as huge giants of their time , but time goes on & as you get bigger the big things get smaller , bit like the supposition that wagon wheels are smaller than they used to be , truth is they havent changed size we have ! i wont twist your arm too much , after all , we want to see a decent conversion , not a one armed hashup Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
