Does that second one run? Looks like it's had a REAL busy life, and is taking a much needed rest.

Mustn't be much left to the mice when that thing stomps em.

Nice rigs.

 

[bear]

the second one doesn't run yet engine stuck and one steering clutch apparently is burnt. i got a parts tractor with it and a whole trailer load of extra parts

 

[bear]

been busy the last couple days getiing the cats out of the ground. they had been there long enough they wanted to stay. had to light a fire to thaw the ground.dirt wanted to stay with them

 

[bear]

her we are thawing the tracks on the complete one

 

[bear]

here it is ready to load

 

[bear]

didn't want to leave the dirt

 

[bear]

another shot of the dirt lifting. it was that thick all the way to the front rollers we got it lifted started a fire in the hole then jacked the dirt down. took a day to get the dirt off trucks supposed to be coming sunday to load them

 

[bear]

took quite a pull to get them moving 2 winches i doubled up

Thats one thing i liked and miss about my old job rigging and pulling it was fun for me.

Hey nice old Dodge flat bed. Do you know what year? Looks like 57,58??

 

[bear]

dodge

its a 57 we put the deck on 2 or 3 years ago. the other 1/2 wanted a deck so i took the grain box off put the deck on,apparently the deck was supposed to be attached to the house. she's been asking for a patio ever since

 

[bear]

this is what it should look like someday

 

[jodyand]

sheet metal

bear they dont have any sheet metal covering the motor on the caterpillar 60?
Jody

 

[bear]

no sheet metal. you could get a canopy made of corrugated steel that went over the entire machine, the canopy looks much the same as the one on the twin city pic in the mm history post
