WELL I went in a bit of a different direction with this
You can see I did do some of the checklist above
I struck 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7 off the list from the prior post as they are complete
The bracket for 2 also is a place to mount the gas tanks which I found that I had from a tamiya cab(the original attempt which I butchered for a cab over 10 years ago, and threw out it looked so bad)
for 7 I changed the material, and the way it was cutout. I used the top cover from a costco pie for the window material as it was nice, clear, and a large piece. So I used scissors to cut it, and hot glue to attach em.
I made a new bumper with a mini servo mount that sort of looks like a winch in the spot a winch should go, and I put 3 mounting spots on the bumper for a snow plow, or other accessory. Snow plow attached currently.

You can also see the bracket for mounting the back of the cab to the chassis in the bottom pic, and how I also had it make a shelf to mount things to like it was in the original picture.
