Top body
It took a bit of wiggling, but I managed to slip the body over the tracks and formers.
small amount of glue was added to attach it to the chassis. My hands were wet and I had a small section water damaged on the side. Oh well, its a tractor bulldozer after all. Isaac

Cabin
The cabin sort of looks like an aircraft . Aerodynamically round ( I have no idea why ( unless it flies..... ).
and ready to attach I added a few card stock pieces to make sure it fits well on the main body. glued on. Nice fit! Isaac

Quote:
The show at the time was interesting, but even as a child, it looked strange that they used marionettes as the action figures. It was both cheesy and interesting. There is an animated computer generated version which I have not yet seen, but I have moved on to Star Wars and Star Trek since. I just finished watching all of the Star Wars movies in correct sequence as well as the Mandalorian season 1 all 8 episodes. I think I may start building some of those vehicles as well. Science fiction is fun to watch even though it does not always makes sense. and a side note: When I return home after this Corona virus is over, it is back to building jet planes again. ( but I will continue with Sci-Fi stuff as well ). Isaac

Another status set
Pics so far.
note: I wanted to weather the model and dirty it up as it is a rescue/fire fighting vehicle. But I'm not at home and lacking supplies for it. So I settled on highlighting the panel lines with my travel Farber Castell artist pen. At least it breaks up the "yellow Bird" look. The plow/shield is next Isaac

Plow / heat sheild
I decided to use wood dowels for the upper actuators instead of the rolled card. Just easier
attached to the pivoting shaft on either side lower struts are just coffee sticks painted with a silver sharpie. The attachment point is a bit different than where the kit designer has it for better support. and its done. lastly, in a lowered and raised position. The pivoting axle is functional. Isaac
