Scraper 70

Actually there were 2 models . On the late 40's (8C series ) the rear wheels were supported only at the inside . On the early 50 model ( 3W series ) they were supported at both sides . So , let us know what type you are going to make .

Hello,

I like the late 40's model (8C series).
Thank you for your help.

Might check sites such as machinery trader and similar. They often have several pictures of the ones for sale with different views.

Hi, cat#11.
I have just had a wander through my library of photos and came up empty = #60s and #80s but no 70s.

How-wevver, a Google search for them using "Caterpillar #70 drawn cable scraper images" did turn up these results:

Hope it helps.
