Here's another model that I've been working on whilst waiting for bits and bobs on the JS330!
Fun little project to do!
I basically cut the engine and counterweight out of a JS220 and re-modelled a new counterweight out of filler! Built the steps out so it looks more like the real machine!

Re: Custom JCB JZ255
Well it's nearly there!
Just got to add the hydraulic lines and vandal guard cage to the cab! No boxing ring on this one though as I havent got a spare upper structure to use as a template!
I'm pretty happy with it overall!
I'll add some more pics once it's totally 100% finished!

Re: Custom JCB JZ255
Yeah the 160 is basically same rough body size says the 220 just cut out the first door behind the cab to shorten it? Then a new boom and dipper or a donor?

I think it's too much really! The 160 would need some serious work! Boom dipper tracks etc hopefully I'll get my hands on a CX130 soon enough!
