What a coincidence! Last night I scored the #3191 snow cat, though it's missing the wench,  roof light bar and the protection frame on the front :(.
Inspired by your vehicle, I also intend to make a special fire fighting vehicle out of it.
Cheers!

These are my custom brush fire fighting vehicles, Luciano.

Great acquisition Peter! When I had them they were some of my favorites!

That's an excellent buy, Peter.  I especially like the alternative units to go on the back, one with solar panels and one with a communications dome.

Bill, I was wondering if you didn't have anything similar. Silly me to doubt it :lol:.
I want to make something in the lines of what you and Peter made, but unfortunately my cat is missing the wench, roof light bar and the front roll cage (or whatever that part is called). So I'll have to get creative. The part that I think is the worse not to have is the wench :hmm:.
Cheers!

Let me check around. I had some extra parts, but I don't remember what if anything was wrong with them. I'll hold up on sending the HAZ MAT figure until I let you know what I've got. I know I have the cable winch you need, & maybe some of the roof cable guide & front protector shield. :crossed:

Really?!? Dude, that would be fantabulous! :woohoo:
For the other parts I'm confident I can cook something suitable as a replacement, but the wench would be a bear to make out of scrap.

Originally I was thinking of making something like Peter did, a tracked water canon (maybe using the pump and water cannon of the #4825). I just have to first receive the snow cat, so that I have an idea of dimensions, and then I'll start thinking hard about what I'm going to put on the bed.
Cheers!
