Could have almost used the Big Trapper as inspiration, nevertheless...that looks badass. Would love if they started bringing stuff like this out.

The Big Trapper, the Recovery Vehicle and others were all inspirations actually. Some of the decals I intend to use are shrunk down copies of from the Big Trapper.

Looks pretty good.
I am curious how you attached the rear wheels? And if you've already "messed up" the vehicle by painting it, why not drill the cat body hole larger to accept the TTBP crane?

I drilled holes through the body of the Snow Cat and inserted dowels to connect the wheels on either side. The wheels actually turn and would work pretty well, except that the Snow Cat body isn't low enough for those back wheels to reach the ground, so it still uses the tiny wheels underneath.
I wasn't concerned about "messing up" the Snow Cat at all (obviously) but didn't want to wreck the crane from my Tactical Battle Platform.

Thanks my friend. I'm just stuck waiting for my Cobra Stickers, and on how to work out the opening back hatch. It's not working too well because the wheels are in the way. I'd like to make it open upwards like the original Recovery vehicle, but I don't think the Snow Cat is tall enough.
