First of all, Hello everyone! First time posting.

A friend of mine has a dozer at the seaport he asked me if I'm interested in buying it but I can't seem to find what Model/Company is it from all he sent me is the serial number 'A36172' the dozer doesn't seem to have names written on its litreally in a container. He doesn't know the model/company either.

Here are some images he sent me.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Looking at the pics its got Komatsu rippers, so I would say its a D 80 or D 85 or maybe a D 150 or 155, fairly early model I would say. Not much to go on as the pics don't show enough.

That "serial number" is most likely just a part number. And exactly what part is really hard to tell from the photos.

It always amazes me what types of things get crammed into a shipping container.
How true that is Vetech. How did they get it in there on it's side and not damage the floor ??
I would like to see it come out of the container and what they do to it before the engine is started !
Hopefully all the fluids were drained before putting it in there.
