Thinned down the side panels of the dozer blade and airbrushed the letters on it

USAF tank? Wow, that's unusual to me 🙂 Great build btw 👍

Thanks Łukasz! Inspiration came from Tankograd's M60 publication, where I found one image of it. Another one from Spangdahlem open house 1993 that can be found on the internet:
military-database.de..lem-ab-galerie-radu/
That was all I had…
More than that, my dad and I were on the road to Spangdahelm in 1993, when our car almost lost a rear wheel due to a wheel bearing failure on the highway. Well, so I had my mission objectives. In the end, I can get at least an idea of what it was like if we had made it that day. 🙂

Very cool, thanks for the details. Who knows, maybe I'll build it one day
