So this started out as a Preiser G scale Front loader. Full plumb & detail, Added a DDC 4-71N, new axles, wheels and so on. A fun conversion. Ap40 Attachments:

Rick,
I remember when you did this one as well. I admire the work you put into that one. As I have many hours in the seat of Hough Loaders from 65's on up to 80's. The were a pretty strong machine back in the day!
You really captured the machine on this one!
Be Well

Rick,
Now that is a nice unit. Well planned and thought out before conversion. I'm really surprized at how many toys on the market today, can with a little bit of work become an actuall collectors piece and show a lot of realism with a bit of conversion. Very nice work there.
