My 78 y/o Dad  had to have it. So we own it now. The guys that used it had just had cat rebuild the motor "full factory rebuild" after only less than 27000 miles. All service records. It will be used to move dozer around farm and haul grain. roller is on back. It was apparently destined to go to Texas oil field until we carjacked it. The gov mechanic was the only other bidder. After he realized we weren't planning to part her out he admitted the tranny was all sound. Another item that sold was a int dozer listed as "hasn't run in years". It ran quite well when fuel was added. Sometimes things aren't as bad as advertised. The tanks were topped off so I know its worth more than $50.00.

I hope it will serve its purpose. I really appreciate the candid opinions. I learn alot from everyone.
