Now that’s a work of artAny spare time I've had over the past three weekends has been working on getting this old girl running. As many would know, these old Cats have a 600cc 2 cylinder boxer petrol starting engine to start the diesel main engine. I had to rebuild the magneto and clean the carb out before I could get it to run and then had several adjustments to make to the engagement pinion before I could get the main diesel to start. Finally, on Saturday I got everything right and the main diesel made smoke - the first time in many years. Very very satisfying! The 87-year-old owner (on whose estate I cut wood) was absolutely thrilled. And for a machine built in 1940, I have to say the quality and engineering is superb - American engineering at its finest.

CrawlerVery cool. I really like old crawlers.
What a plumVery cool Steve! I hope you find one! I've recently brought my own CAT D2 and I hope to go and collect it next week - 11 hours drive though. It's a 1950 D2 5U only done 3940hrs from new. All original and untouched - been in one family since new.
