CAT 365C L ME mass excavator Base Models: Norscot CAT365C L FS/ Joal Volvo EC650ME Scale: 1:50
Here is my custom CAT 365C L ME excavator! You can get an idea of this machines size as that man walks past its massive bucket
The cab is protected by a full front and overhead cab guard
Front view to show off the beefy thick boom arms and big toothed bucket
The base model is a CAT 365C L FS that the front shovel system has been removed and the cab has been cut down to fit in excavator format. The mass excavator boom and bucket are off a Volvo EC650ME model
Rear and side view
View from the other side...

In order to give this excavator a higher lifting height and a deeper digging depth I moved the booms lifting hydraulics back rather than using the standard holes from the original front shovel
By adjusting the hydraulics placement the excavator is givin a deeper digging depth like shown here and a higher reach hieght like shown below...
Overall this is a pretty easy custom and one I absoultly love! If you are into custom building I highly recommened in investing in making on of these baby's!
Here's a good photo of the CAT 365C L ME in action loading up some 769D's
