Let's see if it works this time -

 

Allis Chalmers 6G crawler loader

Homo Sapiens, pre-adult. Male... or are we not allowed to make those assumptions anymore?

Thanks Rome, I think you nailed it!  Appreciate the expertise 

Your welcome Sasquatch! His mother must have had a fit when she saw those clothes, lol. I can just hear that little tike..."all geased up papa!! lets git ta wook!!" lol

Good job Rome for identifying the loader from such little information. My neighbor years back had an AC loader but I couldn't remember the model of it so I did a search on the net for 6G and stumbled upon this video. This guy was trying to get a thrown track back on and I think it is a wonder that he didn't get killed in the process. He made a video of his attempts and it is absolutely amazing he is alive to post the video.

He needs to watch this film!

I've been running Cats for too long to get any kind of thrill fighting a computer. The Cat just does what it was designed to do. The computer, not so much...

i went home a few times covered in grime just like that young lad. and i was happy as a pig in the proverbial.

especially the day we rescued a old bellis&morcom twin triple expansion steam engine and alternator from a local sugar mill. my clothes and i where so black mum made me shower under the hose first with a cake of solvol soap(fine pumice and soap mixture) before i was allowed inside to shower properly and she just chucked my clothes away. i was in high school at the time.
