but no close-ups ,
here is one from the Indy 2011 post ,
but without the big brush-guard and extra lights :


what do you like to know about it ? you want some better close ups ?
here are some quick specs :

• stock 3 speed but with a 5:1 reduction and 35 turn motor,

• original full size speaker box , therefore very loud sound possible ,

• re-positioned vibration motor and modified cab to get more shacking of the cab without the entire frame vibrating ,

• heavy duty brush-guard , bolted solid to the frame , with extra lights ,

• front tires 1.9" size on self-made rims ,

• rear "super-singles" 2.2" size on modified 2.2" rims

I have some videos from it , but not posted yet

Okay... I have a few questions!

Is this Lynn's 8X8?



And I haven't seen him in a while... is this Lynn in the yellow shirt too the right?



Any more close ups of this gray colored dozer on the left?



And what is this 'spiked wheeled' beast? I LOVE IT!




I REALLY wished I had gone but the pics are a second best.


Have a great weekend everyone.

"And what is this 'spiked wheeled' beast?"

JEFF , that is a cat 825C compactor . similar to landfill compactor with subtle differences . The "spikes" on the landfill version are more like triangles and there's an attachment to the radiator to keep the trash out of the radiator .

The answer to your first 2 questions is yes!!

Okay guys, thanks!

So it's a landfill compactor... never would have guessed that and I looked it up too. Learned something new today yes I did.

It's STILL a beast of a vehicle!


And nice to 'see' you again Lynn!
