It may be a while be fore I get more things made, but when I make more
I'll let everyone know. Many of the details on the 8-wide engine comes
right off my 6-wide version. The vents, the blower housing, the railing,
and parts of the radiator bubble could all be done on a 6-wide model.
(To be fair, my 6-wide model had a seven wide cab.)

By the way, I really appreciate your comments, I love all the work you
have done.
