I doubled the scale for this one.  It doesn't take any oil or fuel  ;D, it is all electric.  Currently it drives forward and back and I will be adding steering soon as well.

The windshield is not what I'd like it to be so I will try to find a better one.

If you keep doubling the scale you'll be there in no time.

Van, your very realistic model makes me miss BCO.  I know he made some people fume but I sure wish I'd had more than a couple of years to read his posts.  I'd like to be able to express myself in written words half as well as he did.  I'll stop now---myspell check is beginning to smoke.  Jack
