This one, like my CAT 980G, is almost done, it is minus a good bucket,
tracks for one side (which are supposedly in the mail!), & a few plates

I liked the cab design on it, which inabled me to use up one of those
windows!  It uses Technic framing for the boom (sp?), & even has the small
bend in the boom...
