Spotted this listing when cruising for a engine. I'm not much of a dozer man, and I've done some equipment repower's. I've even cobbled some stuff together in my life. But I've never come up with something that looked quite like this.

For only $10,000 it could be yours too. From the ad:

Pretty much a pile and useless with the loss of limited vision to the front. Some people can make big junk and expect big money for it! Does not look like has seen much work for awhile.

It is still interesting to see how people can "make do" with the resources that are available to them. Vision may be limited, but once you get used to it, it could still accomplish some work.
