After many years of salivating over these machines I came across one that is seemingly in pretty good shape and was in my price range. I looked at it way back when over Fathers Day weekend and hauled her home last week finally, a 850 mile round trip between South Jersey and upstate NY.
2-71 Detroit starts easy and runs excellent. Couple of hydraulic line leaks and some worn components on the tracks, mostly thr slides that the idlers rest in and a bent adjuster which I believe happened while I was running her. I'm going to disassemble the tracks and go over everything, hoping I can either build or source what I need.
