Don Checks out a Cat D-9G at the Antique Heavy Equipment Museum.

Here is one of three pics of this nice old Cat D-9G with a factory cab.
Glenn said he just bought it a couple weeks ago. I asked him if anyone even wanted these old Dozers anymore . He said not too much, but because this one had very low hours and the undercarriage was in excellent condition, he said it was a great buy.
He also said he has two people that want to buy it for three times what he paid for it. But he loves the old machines and collects them and said he enjoys keeping them.
There is a Cat D-8 sitting behind this one that he also just bought at the same place. If you go to the ( Cat Dozer) section in the photo gallery, you can see two more angles of this D-9G.
CAT NO. 16 GRADER PROGRESS- I have the front axle roughed in and attached to the frame. Now all six wheels are on it. Next I am cutting out the parts for the blade and the blade circle and the blade A-frame.
TEREX TITAN WHEEL UPDATE – This afternoon I will get the wheels redone with the orange centers. If all goes well, I will post the updated final look of the monster haul truck tomorrow.
