I really, really, really hate to do this, but I need a small, working dozer/crawler much more than I need the dump truck right now. I just got several hundred yards of dirt put on my property, and I found out today that I wasn't supposed to bring in the dirt because I'm technically in the flood...

Guys, You may remember my recent story of my M817 ("newbie got her home"). One item in that story was that the truck was advertised as a 1989. Not knowing anything about these vehicles, I assumed that to be correct. I purchased the truck in an online auction for $2,130, which most of you...

Not sure this is the right forum, but I couldn't determine which one would be right. Here's a 1959 5 ton 5th wheel trailer with a dolly in NW Arizona. Guy will even take payments. Less than 24 hours left. Too far away for me...

Guys, I saw this on eBay. Seems like a pretty good deal to me. I'm fresh out of toy money though, but maybe one of you are ready for another project :D http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1,1&item=270003608547

I've read the FAQ, and I can't get a signature on my posts. I have one in my profile, and I check the 'attach signature' check box when creating a post, but my signature does not show up. Any ideas or am I missing something?

I've been looking around for a heavy equipment trailer so I can move around my 20K lb backhoe with my M817 when I get them both fixed up (two unfinished projects). An M817 can tow 30K right (on the road)? Thought the following was interesting (but I don't think it would be street legal). It's...

The M817 I just bought came completely full of fuel (100+ gallons). I have no way of knowing how long the fuel has been there, but I would guess several years. I know that diesel attracts water. Is there any way of draining/straining/additive that will save it. Given today's fuel prices...

Hey Guys, I got her home today. I was definitely mislead on a few items by the auction company, but overall I think I'm happy. The not so good first: For one, they said it was a 1989 which seems too new to me. Turns out that it's a 1972. They also told me it was running when they took...

I just bought the dump truck below from a city fleet auction, but I'm having trouble identifying it. It sure looks a lot like the vehicles on this site. Can anyone help with identification? It's supposed to be 1989, but I'm not sure. Thanks for any help?
