first the grass pick up on this model was cut and norrowed to a 3 metre version and the top cut out and proper mesh added,then a custom driver was built for it and the inside of the cab painted.the lights were then installed and after it was put back together it was weathered.

john deere 8430t
this model was stripped down and working spot lights and flashing beacon were added.i was going to add lights at the front of the bonnet but i was running out of room inside the chassis with this being the tracked model theres not as much room as whats in the wheeled models.then the model was weathered to look muddy and dusty.the model is now for sale on ebay.

jcb 416 farm master
first this model was stripped down in order to fit working lights.
in the picture you can see i have cut out the door and i have made a new door for it which will be open.after alot of cutting and filing the lights were fitted and wired.all the wires,battery holders and switch are hidden inside the chassis.
after putting it back together i started on all the small details ie,mirrors,hydraulic pipes,rust,dirt etc.

john deere 9560r
this is a new project i have started and being so big and impressive looking im going to give it the works.first some pics of how it looks straight out of the box.
first i take the model to bits ready for paint,then i striped the cab down to get to the lights which are cut out ready for working lights going in,once they were in i moved to the bonnet and drilled out six holes for more lights going in.after that i moved to the back and started on the spot lights on the rear mud guards,here i used slightly thicker wire and all black wire,im not to worried about hiding this wire as if i root it right i can pass it off as hydraulic pipes.
switches and battery holders now wired and tucked away in the chassis,its back together now and time to weather it.
pis of the lights on in the dark.
then the model was weathered to look muddy,and now its up for sale.
