I'm partial to black under carriage and gray tins but going cat yellow is always safe

I vote number 1 also. It makes for a bit classier overall look.

I like the yellow track carriage from #1 with the black blade in #3

Thanks for the feedback everyone. I've been back to building.

I got most of the frame put together. Used my small table to keep everything together.

And I got the plow from my brother in law.

And I took everything apart to mount the linkage and mock up the cylinders to make sure everything moves like I expected.

Haven't been taking a bunch of pictures. Time is getting scarce around here so I gotta get moving.

Put it on the dozer to make sure things clear and move like I expected.

I'm very happy with how it's turning out (even though this thing is completely ridiculous). I still have a lot of little work to do. I hope to do a full test at my brothers house around Dec/Jan before I take it all apart and start the painted process.

Awesome!

Did you pick a paint scheme from the colour choices?

I have a question, will the blade have tilt.. I can see how it will move at angles and vertical but having tilt would be great for such an awesome build.

Great project and very well done. I vote for the Cat yellow. 2 weeks ago I saw a sales bill for a big farm auction a few miles from me. They had a Cat 22 listed. I planned to attend but totally forgot on the sales day. Probably a good thing as I might have wound up with it. All I could have used it for was to run around my 2 acres and recall the days I spent on one working fields for Dad.
