Hi All,

I wanted to share my latest custom buy Greg F. its an exact match in 1:50 to my 1:1 CAT 963C. Greg did a fantastic job capturing every detail of the real machine in model form. I couldn't be happier and I cant thank Greg enough. I will let the pictures speak for themselves.

Hope you enjoy!

That's a lot closer to the detail level I think of when thinking about a Greg Ferguson piece!

Congrats Shay!

Thanks for the compliments guys. Glad that you are happy with the model Shay.

Here are some photos of the model while in progress, as well as some additional completed photos. Started with a CCM 953C and a Norscot 963D. The top of the engine hood was scratch built to match the real machine as was the AC unit. The bucket was heavily modified, as well as the cab. All grab rails were replaced and many other details added:

Quite a nice copy. Your modeling skills are phenomenal, Greg.

Must dig foundations quick.

How else could you make money in Pitkin County? Cool
