As a construction engineer who worked with these monsters, I’ve always dreamed of seeing these in kit form! They were workhorses for moving dirt and I’ve seen some still in use by small contractors. Had talked to him about these and am glad he took them on as a kit! The 830 Cat was also used, but I think the Clark was most used in Nam. Wayne

I am aware of 1:35 scale for most military models but would like to see an 1:50 scale civilian version in yellow.

To my knowledge, These were built to military specs and weren’t sold in civilian markets, except as surplus. And I’m not sure what color Clark equipment was sold in. Wayne

The kit lists them as OD, but I have seen photos in yellow.

Maybe as surplus, but the military contract version was OD. Wayne
