    Cab Flooring How the guys recreated the flooring plans inside the cab of the SP 9010. Each piece was cataloged and charted and then printed out so that Howard can cut the linoleum to the correct size. Do you know what #17 is?

    Not a part of the SP 9010 but Gerry came up with a little red wagon and these parts from the SP 5623. This is a brake stand that is in need of repair and between the two gentlemen they called a friend and figured out what to do to make this work correctly again.

    Engine of the Krauss-Maffei Howard and I had a disagreement (first one!) on whether the engine (motor) needed to be cleaned up and painted? Color is Maybach Green Since I am the one doing the work I convinced him it would work out fine. What do you think so far?
