I cant tell how much I love your vids, I ve been watching them for many years. I d love to see you one day, who you are and what youre doing. Thank you so much - mystery-man ! 🤓👍
Thank you for showing the old IRON 😊 That JD (544-B) back in 1979 we had 3 on a sewer main line ULID sewer jon in a coastal city. I liked the shuttle control for them. The Forward and reverse were imprint on the metal. They were very good loaders for running pea gravel and work on side of ditch. All the muck they dug out of ditch was loaded on dump truck. They had a huge dump area that they filled with spoils. We backfill with other materials because we dug in the streets and alleyway 😊
Sure would like to get ahold of that 518. Yes, they rode hard but moved a lot of logs. That size was great for jobs that had tight quarters like around houses.
I used to run a 518c. They ride rough as hell. But talk about some damn tough and reliable machines, that they definitely are. As you said, very good for tight quarters. I found the one I ran to be good on steep ground.
Growing up in the western Puget Sound region I've many a D6 with a stump splitter, yet never got to see one in action, I've searched for videos of this type and have come up nil. Thanks for the video.
Regarding the 518 and the tire size, you were right about them being oversized. They usually came with 18.4x34 or 23.1x26 sizes and the wheels on the left side kinda look like Timberjack colours. Good catch as i was hoping you'd get a good view of them. 24.5x32 is the on that machine Good video. Makes a person wonder what is wrong with the 3155 John Deere farm tractor.
Been watching your videos for at least 10 years or more, always enjoy the walkarounds
Thank you!
Another bunch of great finds 🤘
Thanks 👍
Thanks again Todd for your time and effort to entertain us really enjoy your mix of interesting adventures !!
thank you!
The only comfort was that it had a cab. The fact that you had a seat to sit on that wasn't all metal I'm sure was a plus. Very cool finds!

@@skadill thank you my logging friend you never disappoint with your video. Man it brings back memories of my working years when the old iron was new.

Another excellent video, sir
Your videos record part of BC history. THX
Great knowledge you have!!! Excellent video!!!
Glad you enjoyed it!
@@skadill Always do very much!!!
I like a dozer bone yard tour! I think of the dudes that ran the machines most of them will have retired but the machines live on...
That Bee most likely had Cat colours 🤔🤣😂😎
rusty gold i love old skidders
REAL INTERESTED IN STUMP SPILITER MAY HAVE TO BUILD ONE

Thanks for the info!
Looks like that old K had a cab fire. Too bad. Probably moved several mountains in its day.
That was my thought. Looks burned out and then all the discoloration of paint on the frame and back.
Quite the anti-tailgate device..😂
10 sec in & I see a newer broken dodge
That about right
Good bones. Blessings
Thanks, that was a pile of D-8 blades!
I own a crane truck I know the owner of all that stuff I’ve moved. I think all of those blades once or 10 Times, he certainly has a collection
Very hard to find a stump splitter video.
Really late model D8K, its aftercooled.
Caught a view of a blue cab over dodge early in video
I think it’s a freightliner If memory serves me right, I know the fella who owns that pile of Iron
You would think they would put the blades back on the dozers
Timber Jack Rims I'd say. at least the seat had foam on it not just Metal, any way when this was made Men were Men not Soft ____s like now
