Two vintage CAT D8, cable blade dozers for sale. Both running. Includes many manuals and spare parts. At 72 yrs old I'm just to old to run  them anymore. Located just outside Chico, Calif. $14,000 for both.

Do you have any pictures of these tractors?

I do have pictures but I do not know how to insert pictures. My better half (aircraft pilot) will be back in a few days and she will be able to do it.

Major change here. My son just bought the acreage adjacent to our cabin property. This means we will need the CAT 8r already on the cabin property to stay there and push road further down the ridge. And I thought we were done building road out there! This will mean this old CAT will probably die down there. I say this because I'm talking approx. one mile of mostly lava ridge top with occasional small patches of thin soil. Mostly it is solid "pyroclastic mud flow". It took me over 20 yrs of dynamiting to cut one mi. cross ridge from the same point. At the end of that road there is a dead CAT d8-2u that will never leave as that deep canyon road is difficult for my little Toyota 4-wheel dr. pickup to climb out of. A brand new D8 could not pull a dead D8 out of that canyon. I'm guessing a thousand feet elev. change in two miles or maybe less. Then it would be 8mi. back out to a place a lowboy could pick it up. So, it seems I now have only the nicer of the two 8r dozers (located at home) that is still for sale. To add further complications,at the same time as all this is going on my next door neighbor throws a rod through the block of his CAT 941 clam shell bucket loader. In disgust he gave it to me and I jumped like a scared cat and immediately had my D8r over there towing the 941 home in the mud in a rainstorm. This mud ball of a D8 is of course the one I now want to sell and it is raining constantly. I will get this D8 cleaned back up and pictures inserted ASAP.
