Thank you Cat twenty five.

Anybody know if the Budd & Quinn is related to Quinn Company that is still in business in California selling Cat equipment?


I am sure we have had the RD6 powering the truck chasses picture before, along with who and were it was taken. Still good to see it again.

That self-powered trailer is awesome. I would love to have one of those to move around a farm that had roads through it. Rigged right, one could make use of the tractor throttle and main clutch, needing only the transmission on the trailer. Power steering and brakes might be missed though, so having a compressor on the tractor would take care of brakes, and I suppose one could have a tractor-driven hydraulic pump for steering with quick connectors and some simple, effective way to bleed the steering at hookup time. This is the sort of Rube Goldberg / Heath Robinson project I'd fully be invested in : )

Cheers,
Neil

Can anyone tell me how the tool bar lift works? The tall rectangle on fender looks to be a hydraulic tank I think. Where would the hydraulic pump be? So the round canister on the track frame a hydraulic motor that rotates the arm with chain????
