I like the trailers you fellows use to move your tractors with.Even after you take the cabs off I still wouldn't be low enough to move them around back in eastern Pa. We just moved 2 Cat 773's trucks on lowboy trailers and we got to one bridge and the sign said 14-4 high, guess what we were 14-0 and we got the bridge. Had to leave the air out of airbags to get under.

Dave looks like you have been busy, last time we spoke you were still working for Roly, did you get any work through Chris Lee ? Havn't spoken to him for a few weeks now. Where on earth did you find a Hampton tractor after all these years, looks like its been a farmer. Makes me wonder how many there actually are still laying around the country. Hope you are well.

Hello Yellowiron, its good to see that you are busy again, that old D8 looks to be well worn, its only 44 years old with a slightly later engine, still, there are plenty of D8H tractors around earning a living.
Hello Gordon, Long time no hear from you, did you ever go for 'Systemone' track? I'm told its doing a very good job with most components running out together and giving extra life, thats' why I don't sell undercarraige any more, its lasting longer and there are less big tractors in the field to sell to.

Best Regards to you both.

Catsilver.

Testimonials

"I also joined a year ago. had been on here a couple of times as a non-member and found the info very helpful so I got a one year subscription (not very expensive at all) to try it out. I really like all the resources on here so I just got a three year. I think its a very small price for what you can get out of this site."
