Found this on face book. Not a cat, I don't think. I've never seen hydraulic cylinders mounted this way. What is it?

Hi, Folks.
I'm gonna take a guess at an early A-C HD5. I'd LURRRVE to see more photos of that blade lift set-up but FARCEbook doesn't like me.

Here's a photo of another HD5 with another oddball blade lift arrangement:

Just my 0.02.

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

No dough it is an AC as the diamond with AC in it is visible on the front just above the added screen on the radiator. My first guess is a HD 6. But no way to know with that picture.

Hi, Folks.
I doubt that it is an HD7. The HD7s had a hood with parallel sides while this machine appears to have a hood tapered toward the rear. It also appears to have a fuel tank behind the seat where the HD7s had the fuel tank behind the engine in the 'firewall' position.

Just my 0.02.

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

It seems to say (printed) HD5 on the side of the seat. Maybe my old eyesight is bad, but that is what it looks like to me.

Oops, I just went back and realized that the orange one is not the one being discussed. Slightly brain dead tonight.

Hi, GrantJ.
Funny that you should mention that "HD5" on the side of the seat on that second photo. Maybe that' could be why I put it my collection of A-C HD5 photos - from whence I uploaded it to here.. LOL.

Just my 0.02.

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