Hello,

i've seen this dozer driving in youtube and it looks very good. Perhaps you can post a link so that all members here can watch it.

Yup, Scrap it. Its not worh fixing. If you would like I can help you find a place to dispose of it.:D:D:D

That is one nice dozer. It looks great. I especially like how the tracks sound authentic when it is running. Call it a prototype of a D12.
