Timothy Maikshilo Posted January 27, 2012 Author Share Posted January 27, 2012 This Kenworth skidder was made by KW, same as the trucks but I don't know any more about it. Maybe the only one in existence and this one is in Invercargill, NZ at Bill Richardsons museum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doug Maney Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 I have a brochure on a KW Skidder. They were short lived and of course mainly in the northwestern US. Quote Interested in Old Trucks?
