This is my C32-8 I got at a train show for $5.00. It does have a power chassis. First order of business was to remove unwanted details and strip the paint.
Unspoken expectations are premeditated failures.

Here it is after stripping with Easy-Off oven cleaner. The easy-off made a gooey mess. With some scrubbing this is what I got so far. Have cut openings and removed the plastic radiators to accept the metal parts.

Here is the power chassis for my C32. Works o.k. Needs a little cleaning.

Got back to adding detail to my C32-8. The stainless steel grilles (Detail Associates) are held in place by Walthers GOO. I've cut open the shell to accept the radiator grilles. Added the hand brake (Atlas) on the right side of the nose. Removed the original exhaust and started to install the (Hi-Tech details) more correct looking exhaust.
