Tonka Dozer conversion

[buzzy16]

Hi guys, hopefully I'll be able to convert this to the standard i'd like, I guess patience will be the key.

So I got this from my grandfather probably about 15 years ago and it has been well used but I still treasure it, so i'v decided to convert it to RC. I'd like to keep the outside original as possible.

I'd like to put hydraulics on the blade and metal tracks i'm thinking, and the rest i'm yet to decide.

oh and any help would be great I know a lot of you guys have a lot of experience and advise on the hobby.

ok so heres some specs:

track width: 1 3/4 inches
blade width: 12 inches
body width: 7 inches
body legth: 13 inches

these are all rough numbers

the main things i'll need help with are finding tracks and the sprockets.

so now for some pictures.











thanks Buzzy
