Hello all, I couldn't wait any longer for Athearn to do the FP7 in Grey and red. This was before the the black widows came out with the correct parts. I took a Athearn Cotton Belt FP7 and a highliner kit and built this unit. Had to put a dynamic fan,correct plow and door with headlight in. Added a few details and wala. Love the F units.

I've never been an SP fan, but when an article was done in RMC in the 80s of making an SP FP7 and B unit using heavily modified Atlas parts (even the B unit) I've wanted to build a bloody nose!
Nice job!!! more pics!

Nicely detailed, I know from experience marking and drilling all those nose and cab grabs can be a royal PITA!
