Modernization???????????????

Hi, Folks.
This looks like somebody's version of a 'modernization' project:

www.mylittlesalesman.com/1960-caterpillar-d9e-dozer-11796802

Notice the tilt line plumbing over the roof of the cab, forward to the front and down over the 'modernized' blade lift arrangement????

Just my 0.02.

You have a wonderful day. Best wishes. Deas Plant.

Gawd Deas, it is obvious the hydraulic lines act as sweeps also; when you burst one, that warns you that the tractor was too tall...
Ugh, maybe someone was on a tight budget. Hope it worked to say the least. JM

I don't see any 'Duck' Tape. I think 🤔 3 maybe 4 rolls, a large spool of No.9 wire and two tubes of silicone ott to get them back to work.
May need some disassembly for transport.
