As you may know here in So Cal old Cats are becoming hard to find. So a friend heard of a widow nearby who had recently sold an old John Deere and needed some other stuff off her property. We stopped by this afternoon, looked around and after I got over my disbelief we made a deal. What I got:
Early D2 side tank complete, unique rear hydraulics good u/c
D2 seat tank electric start pony good u/c
D4 engine out very good u/c
Fifteen complete
Ten? finals & u/c
industrial (315?) head off
unknown pull grader
2 springtooth harrow
unknown disc
all misc Cat parts in the shop
Who knows what will show up when I start digging in the shop. So far most of the major parts are accounted for so maybe the rest of the Ten is in there.
I don't have S/Ns yet but will post them as well as more pics. The seat tank D2 was the working tractor several years ago and by its general great condition appears to have the actual 7000 hours shown on the meter. The u/c on The Nudist D4 is trashed so I have a home for that. I'm gonna need some help ID-ing a bunch or stuff so be forewarned. I'll be posting for sale everything I don't need but am not going to tackle this project until next year sometime.
