John Deere 7800 with Cab Glass FWA & 2WD

[bu]

here is my 7800 that i have had since my carpet farming days... i've always wanted to use it in a display but i am not a fan of non-cab glass tractors - so i put cab glass in also added one mirror, railings,gas cap and detailed the lights engine and added different rubber. on the door i made the glass cracked on the bottom to add a little character...

comments/questions/criticisms are always welcome






thanks for looking

[johndeere9430]

thanks for the comments - ya i got a Challenger 680B combine off ebay and I am really happy with it. The tractor is actually a 8440

[magnum 7240]

oh i seen one like it on vankleys is it good looking work to your fine eye if it is i might get one

i am really happy with - the paint job is clean and the decals are impressive and put on really clean as well... i am not a huge fan of the plastic hoppers on the agco's but this the challenger is my favorite of the 3 combines (Massey, Gleaner, Cat)

[hoss]

that is some top notch work on that 7800 i really like the tire selection and the crack is pretty sweet

[bu]

thanks for the comments... i really like the way it turned out so i tried another one but 2wd - still gotta add the step railing and replace the muffler... you can see the white glue that will turn clear its still drying

Nice! If I may ask how did you install the cab glass.

[bu]

i cut the pieces to fit the 6 windows and used window clear glue to keep them in

7x00 series was a tough tractor we have a 7700 with 18000 hours that we bought new in '95. Those tractors look great

[Quinton DeDecker]

I really like what you do with tires, it makes such a huge difference. I was wondering if you knew any places online to get tires, or if you have a few extras. Thanks

Pretty slick. I plan to do a couple the local farm I work on has 3 7X00 and 7X10 tractors. They are great rigs to run and the farm had bought them new.
