Red has always been my favorite color,I consider this a real attention-getter.
As for the stack? Take one of the gate pieces from set 4561 and insert a 1x1

and the windows were suggested by Rob Werner at a meeting.And the hood on the
prototype does have the one-step taper ahead of the cab like mine...
