Here's some pics of a little custom I threw together using the new CCM D10's... I based the model off Ralph D. Mitzel companies #114 pushcat which was one of the early original single stack dozers with a c blade on the front and large single shank ripper on the back. Here's a photo of their #115 pushcat which was a later twin stack dozer with single shank ripper.

Kenny,
Real nice work, CCM did a great job on the D10's, and you improved them. Please do a few more.

AWSOME, AWSOME, AWSOME job Kenny! How hard was it to put the ripper on the pusher (or is it the push blade on the standard)? Think

Really nice!

Kind of funny to see how many different models you can get by just using those two:
1. standart-blade ; closed cab ; ripper
2. push-blade ; open cab ; push-block

3. standart-blade ; closed cab ; push-block
4. standart-blade ; open cab ; push-block
5. standart-balde ; open cab ; ripper
6. push-balde ; closed cab ; push-block
7. push-blade ; closed cab ; ripper
8. push-balde ; open cab; ripper

I have seen someones conversions to all 8 of the combinations you mention, that is a pretty cool bonus for the model for sure that it can be revamped like that.

I have a couple of pics of 84W D10,s double pushing Cat 660B & 666B scrapers in Australia, 2350HP available on tap when pushing the 666B, talk about the "danger zone"!

Awsome job mate, mine turned up yesterday and a nice single stack spec sheet today (among other things) Now just need the twin stack conversion to make a 115 unit.

sweet pictures Ken of the 666, did cat offer enclosed cabs for them or where they custom fabricated? The only other EROPS cabs I seen on cat tractor scrapers was on a 630b, which is very similar to the one on the 666.
