Completed track mods to single grouser. Cab handrails and platforms with handrails at the front of the dozer have been completed. The rails are fabricated from 1/16” brass rod with all connection points soldered. Final fitting of these parts will be later in the project.

Amazing work as usual Dennis. For the ten million dollar question, will it have an engine?

Thanks Terry. At one point I thought about an engine, but to build and detail it that's a project by itself. So this will be a curbside :D

Your stepping up the skills man. SOLDERING! Your days of styrene rod are numbered I feel. Next thing you know, you and Randy D will be competing with the solder projects.

Awesome work on the tracks. The handrails look great. Keep on it man, git r dun.

Thanks Clayton :D I did the soldering over a two day period. The first day I was cruising! Everything went well. Not so on the second day :angry:

how is this one doing

I have put this on the back burner for now. I needed a break from it so I'm working on my Mack roll-off.

Very interesting project. I thought that these brutes were all to a larger scale. I know some guys are taking them stock and displaying them.
