Chris from Poland, may I advise you to right-click with your mouse on each photo and left-click on search with Google or a line similar to that in Polish

You might be surprised with the results, not all are immense photos, but there's enough good results to help out.

ps: by god, will you look at the size of those doors in the 1st pic?

That HMMT wrecker pulling the 1070 loaded with that cougar would make a crazy huge diorama. Who's gonna be the first to tackle that one?

In fact it's not a wrecker, it's a M983 tractor fitted with a Tru-Hitch XM20 Fifth Wheel Towing and Recovery Device :

...But I agree with you about the crazy huge diorama idea
