if you look at the 2 pueuclid green machine on the pad there a loader and a push dozer the loader is 1 of 2 prototypes and the push dozer is 1 of 1 prototypes needlees to say we dont work them much incase something brakes. most other machines we can make parts or shoehorn something to work curently working on a few cranes a 26 northwest and 29 korehing probably one in a very few left serviving or maybe the last but thats why we try to keep them

Middlefield,Oh wow thats almost in my back yard i live only 20 miles west. must be diffirent kinds of pee because the past years on harvest peeing out back behind the camper seems all i could do is make a large dead spot where i took a leak every morning. back in the shop durring the cold Minnesota winters used to pee on the dumpster to see if i could freeze it down before they come back for trash collection next week never suceeded at that one.

i can remember the first time i loaded a over the road truck with that 475 i was stockpileing sand and just happened to be in the Wrong spot at the right time. a scoop and a pinch and she was full ended up putting 28 ton on he only wanted 26 but i thought that was pretty good hard to feather things in when you cant see much.

tim that is a 1946 unit 514 with a 3-71 gm diesel. it is the best thaing to have a crane around the farm you can pick up and move anything. not sure what i am doing with the trucks thinking of using one of the rear axels and frames for my b 81 i will have to take some pictures and send to you when the weather gets better to see if there is anything you can use on that l cab its pretty rough a;long the floor in the back. i may have a line on a much better L cab if that motor will turn i might put on i like them L models. -

i have known about these trucks for some time now same people i bought the unit crane from back in 05 or 06. been hearing through the grapevine that they were talking of letting the scrap man come visit in the spring so made a few phone calls and wound up with 2 more macks to bring home. pretty rough shape but worth the $400 least i think. enjoy the pics sam b 61 last time i tried motor was stuck. cab floor is pretty rough but the doors are pretty nice l model of some sort couldnt find serial number and wasnt in much of a mood to crawl around today more info when they come home.
