Dad gum, you got a hard head to crack a cat window just joking you ha ha ha😊😅😊
I was 12 years old when I was taught how to run a D8H. 1975!!!! That is a memory I will cherish all my life. Great video !!!!!!
that 955 would probably bring 150k at the auctions this year! crazy.
google says the d8h was introduced in 1958
Hey Chris! If you need a bit of garden art at home, the loader with the cracked windscreen and a bit of your own history might be something that has a bit more meaning. you can always add a drag line etc later on ,,, Good story though, Cheers bloke!!!!
wow oh wow, awesome! great story about your head cracking the windshield when you were a young fella..
Thank you for showing these old but Great Girls at work. Just asking is that big pile to mix the soil for great farming soil. Get the Deeper soil back on the surface.
When I used to operate one of those I never thought photos work I thought like a big kid playing
Built a pond 2.5 acres it was 8 feet deep with a dh8 . It did the job
In Santa Rosa CA .
"Its from the seventies I'm sure" click broom, fires right up. Love it.
A blast from the past. I think the 955L would have to be the “where it all began” at a future letsdig18 museum. Complete with a cracked windscreen from a 14y/o Chris’s head🤣 Awesome video, take care & cheers😊
Those two monsters can move some dirt 👍
Great video. Love to see old equipment taken care of😊😊😊
Good ol d343 love that 1200 rpm rattle
Those operators definitely did not hit the gym after work!
My hat goes off to the men in those days that built our country and our military men that fought for and protected it. (Women and everyone else included, but that's what I meant). That's when kids knew that if dad had to get up to discipline you after working all day, you were definitely in trouble and probably deserved to be in trouble.
I love seeing classics in action.
That Allis Chalmers 16 I believe is called a bull grader, see how long and low the blade is on it, bull graders had blades like that, they were for finish grading not so much dirt movers.
Wow! They all sound perfect! Like they’re new
Absolutely love this one. Thanks to owner for sharing his treasures with us. That’s so awesome that this old iron still exists and is still able to work.
The big stack is so dumb. It is just a huge funnel for water and it looks stupid. Things were so much better 20 years ago
We're gonna need all this old iron to rebuild America after we get adults back in charge.
Amei esse international essa mecânica me bateu uma curiosidade e um cummins/Detroit/mwm fala aí parceiro???👏👏👍😎🇧🇷
First introduced in 1958
classic dozers will be the rat rods of collectors today
I love it. The old Cat was pushing some good blades full, with no problem, at all. I have wished, often that I could have been a heavy equipment operator, at least for a couple of years. I have gotten too old and stoved up, now. I would be lucky be able to climb into the cab on it. I have done some dirt work with tractor and blade and with a wheeled loader. I enjoyed it much.
"The Dozers That Made America …" great again? 🙄
That one cranked right on up
About to say he wasn't going to get it to move
It didn't have no hesitation about pushing
I think they did pretty good for their age and like you said they don't make them like that anymore
I've got an old 2u out of the old Bethlehem steel plant with 156 hours on it when I bought it in 1994 !!
