The new custom PCFD forest fire fighting division bull dozer.

[Bill Blackhurst]

I have one Bill and I'll try and photograph it in the next few days and make some measurements for you.

Thank you Gordon! I appreciate your offer of help! I maybe required to pursue this avenue until the one I need comes available.

Hi BW,
Thanks for the positive review! The bulldozer came without the front scraper blade, & I may need to customize one until an original one comes available.

Hi Bill,

I've not had time to photograph the snow plough blade yet, but looking at it I think it's a non-starter.  It is a different profile and the although it looks like the pin on the blade would fit the hole in the 'dozer's fitting mechanism the surrounding parts on the 'dozer would prevent the blade actually fitting in place.  However, I shall do some photos asap and post them.

Thank you Gordon! Once I see your pictures, I will decide on the best course of action!

Hi Bill,

not sure if this information is useful to you but the blade your after was still available from DS I managed to get two of them either late last year or early this can't remember exactly.

I used the part numbers from set 3277 which got me both the blade 22 9130 and the retaining pin 22 9150 the only difference is that the blade is a darker richer red than the original. Other parts may also still be availble from this set, I was also able to get the white bulldozer body!

Duckman.

and I'll check availability after Christmas and put them on my next DS order if they're available.

Thank you Andi, & Duckman  , for the positive reviews & the new information regarding the alternate part numbers! Hopefully these parts are still available  ! It looks like I will be making a new DS parts list for these awesome little bulldozers using this model instead of the 3757 original model!
I have always wanted a couple of the white bulldozers, but they are not seen here in the USA!
Thanks Gordon, I definitely want these items, & possibly in small quantities while they're still obtainable!

Thank you everybody for your support & help with this project! It is still a work in progress, with future pictures to be presented!
