Found this looked like the right vintage for someone’s crawler.

Haha yeah I think the best ones on craglist is when someone post a old truck that is halfway rotted out and they say 17 000 original miles because the clock has rolled

The "Ran when parked" is always good. Even if there is a tree growing up through it in the picture.

What size Cat would be correct for a 10 yard scrapper? I was offered a 4 or 5 yard scrapper a while back and dont know if any of my Cats would pull it. My biggest is a d4 (not running at the moment) and I like playing with my 22 and soon to be running D2. I dont recall the brand, but it is still sitting where I saw it. Grant.

In my opinion a 10 yard scraper is D8 stuff. D6 ( depending on condition) is well suited to 7 yards or so. I HAVE been wrong before...

Thanks Ed, that is interesting. The one that I looked at was not Cat, but I think it was for a D4. I may let my addiction take me back to talk to the folks. I dont need more yard art, but it was cool. Grant.
