Pugs, I will try upload some more pictures on the 463, have some during the build.
Greg, have been counting years, now I m on months but building will slow down during summer, have to take care of my old Pete and Great Dane trailer. Still hope to have a start up within 6 months
Steve, yes it´s the lightning used that fools picture, the model is painted in new CAT color. Have learned the hard way that there´s a lot of different colors on CAT´s depending on when manufactored. I like the higway yellow very much (sofar the best one) but couldn´t paint a modern model in that. The 463 are painted in same color as D8R, that´s wrong color if it was supposed to show a new 463, but my scraper are a "hydraulic rebuilt" and then it was painted in new color scheme (just like my friend real 463).
