XF, you're right, it looks really nice and obviously took some time to put it together. That's somewhat close to the T-12, but it was never accepted or issued. Just the pilot models made and everything dropped in 1945. The spade was only 3 feet wide and was not a dozer, but a support for pulling from the front. The VTR the guy made could be made in to a fairly accurate T-12 and it would look nice. He did a great job of building it. They are also using it as a bulldozer, with an M-6 style dozer blade but that would not work with a Pershing. No dozers were put on Pershings, as they were grossly underpowered as it was, so no dozer designs were drawn for Pershings and the dozers left to the Shermans.

The M-26 Dragin Wagon is an amazing model. It really looks superb in every detail. Wonder how long it took him to build that one?
