This is what I found today in a local quarry:    A friend of mine who lives near the site saw it a few days ago and told me that this monster was enormous but i didn't think it was that huge!!! I think it's the first in Quebec... But I'm not sure. More here!!!

Good call to stand in front, giving some scale. Fabulous chunk of steel...

Thank you guys! I think the 992C is the same size, they share the same tires.
