1st update! Sorry no pics yet Have the tracks assembled. Now I remember why I got out of the RC tanks- What a pain!! Figured I would start on the cab as it is plastic and SHOULD be a straight build. NOT!! No place in the instructions does it say or even mention that the cab fits down over the frame. So this is my 1st goof. Do not just assemble the cab without testing the inside width of the cab to the frame.

As I have built primarily military themed vehicles, I am planning on this being the same. Got the paint yesterday from Tower, Testors Model Master dark green to match my Sherman tank and other vehicles to be added to the fleet.

Going to start on the track bogie frames later today. Already found some items to replace with custom parts on the cab Can you say square lights???

More later,

Sorry for no pics but I have been busy making other things and not working on the loader. It is just setting by my computer desk gathering dust Indy is not going to happen for the loader Just too many other irons in the fire this year. Still need to finish some customer orders by Wed. so I can get everything together for Indy. Looks like it will be a lite cargo trip this time.
