Thanks to a great guy (Bill) I acquired this C-20 project. Was curious about the difference to the CAB that I already have.
The chassis is about 6" wider inside.
Wheel base about 14" longer
Tire clearance about 6" larger radially.

Stephen,

One big difference is one has a place to carry the dirt and one does not! 😊

Jan, will be good to see you again. The bucket? You just have to visualize it. Actually I have all the parts, just a "small" matter of sorting out ahead of me.

Come to the show & pull the CAB around! Last year I missed someone that brought their Cark air dozer- a perfect match!

The difference is the C-20 is a little bigger and it is built a lot stronger. The CAB was an airborne unit built light enough to be airlifted in a glider and the C-20 was built stronger. I have a C-45 I pull with my D2
