Default Re: Structo dumptruck conversion

I may have been complaining for a while that my Tonka Sandloader doesn't really work as a loader for my dump since they won't reach the bed on my lifted Structo, and it's really only useful to the truck as a trailer that's hard to back up.
They kinda work on the 'no tailgate' style dumptrucks, i don't have one converted. Plus you probably aren't going to move that much material, the bulldozer tracks these are based around only have 0.200" tall scooping paddles.

Something bigger. I like OLD stuff that you can see doing stuff and things when its working.





Careful mr bruder, this was built before safety warnings so there is no sticker to say there aren't safety stickers. "Don't stupid". "No dumb here". "The entire thing is a crush point". "This WILL kill you, and it will hurt the entire time". Yeah, maybe it's better the new stuff has less cool things to watch working, whatever.

I tracked down a 1946 Doepkey #2001 Barber-Greene Bucket Loading Elevator. Little rough and needed some work, but not too bad for being 74 years old. The real question is how it'll do in crumb rubber?

But seriously what is it?
