New scraper -prototype

[Welder Dave]

Steiger is now part of Case IH and looking at the comparison the MTS converted unit shown looks very similar to the Versatile and has the same HP as a Versatile. Hood looks identical for one thing. Maybe production models will be Steigers but prototype says Versatile.

The power units are modified Steiger's in which 60% of the machine's are modified by MTS. Watch and see what appears soon. I'm not at liberty to speak about it but its pretty cool.
Next year the Antique Caterpillar Machinery Owners Club National Show will be held on the MTS grounds and construction headquarters in Elkader, Iowa. Around the 19th of September, 2021. The Moyna's new antique construction equipment museum will be complete by then also. They have a splendid Cat collection in addition to other antique earth moving equipment .A good will donation of your choice is the only gate fee. The show plans are staggering. It's is also the 85th anniversary of CJ Moyna/MTS. Hope to see you there.

That sounds like a fun weekend.Ill have to try to remember the date and hopefully work can be a little less demanding at that time frame.

My HS senior class photo was taken on a brand new at the time Versatile 1156. That's what happens when all 21 graduates of your senior class grew up on a farm in the middle of ND.
