Some very nice dozers there. I have not seen too many D8N customs around. It looks good.

Hello

Another mistake by Norscot the cab filter on the left side should be removed and swung around 180 and put against the cab window where they have the filler cap, these can be traded around.

I work with several of these crawlers every day and have never seen one where the cab filter
is set out to the rear as the model has been done.

If someone wants to post a photo I can send some of the real thing.

This is my favorite color scheme for the N series dozers.
