I'd heard about the gooseneck option on the bell tractors. Its kinda funny that the tractor/pan combo is evolving back to setups like the Clark scrapers; all they need is a blade on the front. First time I've seen one with a scraper attached though. Man that tractor has some fat tires, I'd hate to foot the bill for them.:eek: They also have a 5th wheel option to pull trailers with. I wonder if it could be setup with the gooseneck so it could be a multi-purpose prime mover. That way the bell could serve as a scraper and a dump truck.:cool2

That type of outfit would be known locally (down under) as a "tractor 'n bucket" or "Laser bucket" not a full blown, scraper like a 222 or 633 :)
