This was H319 from Franklin Luke Weber got her new, then when he went onto the H94 Pacific P16 with the 3412 cat engine Freddy Ewart took her over. Hayes Forest bought her at the big Weyco Garage sale She stayed with us at Franklin till Hayes exited the TFL then she was sold to MtSicker They repowered her and painted her. The trailer is a home made one . The front half is BCFP Folding reach and the rear part is CrownZ

This was the only tag we could find anywhere on the machine. Hope you can identify it from that.

Had this sweatshirt in a drawer for years. Dug it out and gave it to an old PCB mechanic.

Cypress serial numbers don't so easy translate into the production list, but machines are more or less numbered from #1 to #54. First 15 is 7280A's, then 27 7280B's and last 13 7280C's. This machine is 7280B #41, and initial customer was Pacific Thinning in Powell River. The one in post 2735 is more a shot in the dark, but it may be a rebuilt 7280B (#37) and if so it was originally owned by Skeena Mills in Terrace. If plate is from U/C machine may also be originally Olsen Groups or R&N Loggings 7280C #52 but I thought that was parked in Campbell River. The one in post 2701 is 7280B #42 originally owned by Palmer Bay Logging in Campbell River.

Well Thanks a lot TorkelH, All Chinese to me unless it is a Hayes. Was not sure about any of the machine numbers. Just somewhat of a shot in the dark. Seems there are guy's around that track these and it is great, so anything I can take pictures of I will.
