Excellent idea and appears very believable.

Yet another early kitbashed small engine getting an upgrade. This was the first kitbash engine in large scale I ever did back in late 2003, it originally had a full cab but I never liked the way it looked, so a few days ago when the wife had to work a late shift, it was off to the backroom laboratory with my trusty (or is that rusty) razorsaw[}:)]

Cut down the cab, added brass posts, wood roof framing and some corrigated aluminum later...





...this one's gonna get REAL dirty after I weather it...[;)]
