EVVA HEARDA This?????

Hi, Folks.

I dunn found this article from the Peoria Journal Star a with a bunch of photos from the Cat Archives:

https://www.pjstar.com/picture-gallery/news/local/2013/10/18/vintage-photos-from-caterpillar-inc/398224007/

One of the photos donw the list is captioned saying that a Holt Caterpillar 18 - yep, that's right, EIGHTEEN - is being used by the army to help with recruiting for the war effort.

Has ANYBODY previously heard of a Holt model 18?

I am attaching an enlarged version of the photo.

Just my 0.02

Hi Deas, it looks like this was a very quick reply, plus a parts book as well !!

Now the hard part, can anyone find a good surviving example. Must be one somewhere.
