Lightbulb Snow White

Im sure a lot of you remember this conversion I did a while ago...


Well about 2 months ago I decided to change it up because I was so impressed at how well the plastic held up and how good it did using cheapy parts I had lying around. So I decided to revamp the whole build and really go all out with quality parts including lights and sound... I finished her about 3 weeks ago and got to run her On my layout and on the dirt layout at Scott's house (Small Haul)Ill get a video up as soon as I make some time, until then enjoy the photos, PM me with any questions ill be glad to help you out....

I love the white and grey combo! What sound unit did you use? I am surprised with the amount of room I have left under the hood so I need to fill it up a bit more.lol

Hi Brian that really great ! Would you ever consider doing a step by step build on a project like this with a parts list a month before so guys could acquire all the parts ? I did this with a guy for a railroad caboose about 10 years ago and every week there would be a new instalment , just a thought . And if there are parts you custom make you could offer them for sale too . Mike

A step by step on this with parts list would be fantastic. Being new to the hobby I'd like to be able to produce a similar result, but would not know where to start at this point.

Plus, to be able to build a working loader at a fraction of the price of the well known builds or kits would make owning a loader possible.

I agree with the guys above. A step by step would be appreciated if time does permit. And I must say the white looks killer on the loader.
