The original model is ok, but I decided a wanted a racer instead. IMO, it
turned out ok, albeit a bit flimsy (but you don't see that in the photo):

and no, the steering wheel is not connected to the steering :-(

Hi Anders,

Nice work! I already noticed your model on brickshelf earlier. Actually my first
LEGO project was the 8674 Ferrari F1, but this wheel loader is indeed much more
affordable! ;-)
I've seen quite a few alternatives now for this set and yours is a nice
addition.
Pity that the steering wheel is not connected though...
