The "good old days". Lima dragline and clamshell, Trojan straight frame loader, old Cat dozer, knucklebuster grader and classic cars and trucks. Enjoy! :drinkup

You're welcome, it was just a video I found surfing on YouTube. I am wondering about the loader too, why the bucket so high?

Great video, thank you - I was 11 ! Nice how you could throw a chain on a car & pull it out. Try that today, if you can find a place to hook the chain. I think the loader op wanted to look under the bucket rather than over it.
