Hi AJR also check the edge of the dozer blade , it does not have afull side to the blade.
Here is the yellow roller version showing the web on the bulkhead. There are many other differences that I shall sort out soon with some pictures.

Hello, I have this
K17 Ford D800 low loader.

Greeting Nico

Very nice model Mike, looks to be in pretty good shape. You can see this is the later dozer with the small exhaust stack. J

Heres one that i watched go by with the Orange roof light and almost clear windows similar to Jasons.This specimen had gone unnoticed by many...mere $21.50.

found another variation of the early bulldozer

came across this lot...has a low loader which looks like a common one to me...there is a orange body and yellow blade which i think is a superkings bulldozer...included in the package but not the auction are three tractors and a flat bed...wasnt expecting that...pretty cool surprise

and the last one is a bulldozer with large stack



there looks to be a small hole at the bottom of the exhaust stack....prolly from a bubble when it was cast

something else i didnt see on the early dozers in this thread...i dont know whats its called but it extends past where the rollers are on each side with the two lines connecting each one...Jasons dozers dont have it...on his its smooth



you can see the rivets on the cab...and something i didnt see with everyone elses early ones...decal guides lines



thicker paint on this side but you can still see the decal guide lines and the rivets



with this pic you really cant see it but there is no webbing on the bulkhead...but there is a slot on the cab



also note...there is no webbing on the bulkhead on the superkings dozer either...no cab came with that one...and the part of which i dont know the proper term for...where the reinforced extension from the roller to the little wheels...the superkings is longer than the king size models
