Thanks Brian! No Dakotah Toys parts, bought a 1256 Wheatland, stole the front and rear tires and wheels, had the chrome stack from years ago, painted the front weights black and added the American Flag decals, they are actually HO railroad decals.

Travis i like 66 Series tractors, this is just a few of my 66 and 68 Series tractors.

Very nice model! Looks great...

[Espeefan]

Awesome Craig. I really like your 1466! Of course all red tractors are awesome in my book, but this one just seems to taunt, 'Hook me and you'll see what I've got!' Love those beefy tires.

Travis, no offense, but why do you have to hi-jack Craig's thread? Give the man some respect.

[Claus]

Thanks for the support Nathan, I've just got red toys, you've got the real deal and I'm envious!

The way it looks today, turf tires, custom rims, different chrome stack and extended axles;

Awesome!

[Espeefan]

Beautiful, Craig. It was a pleasure seeing these tractors in person, when I stopped in to visit with you and your wife. You've got a really nice collection that just keeps getting better and better.

[Claus]

Thanks guys! Nathan you can come back anytime!

[Claus]

BTW, the front rims on the 1466s and 1468s along with the dual rims on the 5488 were spun and blasted by our very own Deereboy3020, thanks Daniel!

[Tamiya Cowboy]

Just awesome I am a big fan of the 14 series and you have done a great job with the detail.. Nice work.

[Claus]

Thanks Paul! Here is a 1466 FWA, not a Precision but a Prestige Series. I added larger rears and duals, front weights and chain, small changes with good results.
