...tractor day!  Just in, the latest 1/16th SpecCast International McCormick Farmall Cub '450 style'.  You'll notice it is an 'offset' tractor where the operator has an excellent view of his field. Farmall called this concept "Cultivision". These Cubs were made, in various forms, from 1947 to 1964. This one most represents a mid 1950's version.

This one brings back memories.  My friend's folks had one for their berry farm and I drove it many times.

In a way, I'm glad I'm out of space because your tractors are certainly tempting Tony

In some ways it outdoes its big brother the 450:

It looks great and is a wonderful addition to any tractor collection. The offset is very interesting ! But ..... what is you planted your crops the other way round or started from the far side of your field ? Razz

love em! great pics thanks Tony. As I've posted in the past, you've got me hooked, tractors are a fantastic addition to a model vehicle collection. For space reasons I need to stick to 1/24 and have this on the way. Its one of a pair, I'll add the other when I can find it at the right price. John N, would love to see what you could do with them with your modelling skills.
