Good auction... ![[Linked Image from i.postimg.cc]](https://i.postimg.cc/NjLfmnzW/977.png) Picked her up cheap... Wish me luck.
If you are not actively engaging EVERY enemy you encounter... you are allowing another to fight for you... and that is cowardice... plain and simple.

Good demo rig and can load a truck in a tight spot very well.
What's cheap?
I would not buy something that runs on any kind of primer given the possibility of primer shortages and even regulations. In fact, why not buy a flintlock? Really. Rocks aren't going away anytime soon.

Per the auctioneer... "drives fine and operates as it should". We will see @ pickup.

Track loaders have kind of lost ground in sales the last 30 years, but when you need one...nothing works as well, building demolition with rebar tangles come to mind. If that is a 977L, the most popular size ever made, you could get darn near purchase price for the tracks...I notice the front idler is well back in the track frame, a sign of a lotta life left in the undercarriage. But a word of caution, if you have to go into the trans or cross shaft for steering clutches, brakes or worse, get rid of it quick. One of the most labor intensive surgeries on any Cat machine. The labor bill will exceed 4X the machine value. If you can find anybody that will work on it, same for 955 and 933.
Well this is a fine pickle we're in, should'a listened to Joe McCarthy and George Orwell I guess.

Not being married to any particular political party sure makes it a lot easier to look at the world more objectively...
Having said that, MAGA.

Question... Do they make wear skins for that bucket?
The mechanic that maintained that thing musta bought a new welder and let his toddler go to town on the outside of that bucket.
