- This 65 to 70-year-old Cat D7 has not run in 10 to 15 years.
Let's see if we can bring her back to life and have her pushing once more.

Without the cable, blade,yoke assembly and without the Winch,a 1956 D7 weighed 30,460 pounds, cheers,nice video guys
Thanks for the info, its been hard to find accurate data on this machine so far… I wondered if it was heavier than I thought it was.
One thing you need to do after starting the engine is to engage the hand clutch, with the gearshift in neutral of course, as this is how the final drive gets it's lubrication. Sitting idling with the clutch disengaged the lube pump won't be turning. Always leave the fwd/rev lever in one or the other and the gearshift in neutral. You must do this if you are doing any stationary work such as using the rear winch.
I have a 17A 695 It was my grandfather's. #695 of 19000 produced from 1955 to 1961. So it was one of the very early 17A models.
Cable blade, pony motor and 2 shiv power unit on the back to raise the blade and run a cable controlled pull type scraper, which I also have.
Thanks for the information on the final drive. I will be sure to keep that in mind when it's idling or like you said doing stationary work with the winch. It sounds like you have a nice 17A with some great history behind it, I inherited my Grandfather's 63 JD 1010 years back and did a complete restoration on it and still use her today.
Very well kept machine. Lucky you
Thanks, i believe the barn is what saved this old gal. Had she been out in the weather I don’t think it would have started up nearly as easily, if at all.
Just awesome! More videos on this D7 please!
I have plans for the old girl.. she’s going to be back 😁
The 3T is a good machine. Just a little less hp than the 17A mine is 128 hp the D7 D 17A is 147 hp
Brings a little tear to my eye 🥲 good work cuz
Thanks Cass 😁
Good video sir 😊
Thanks 😁
Sounds really good. We have 64 D7e.
thanks, for an old cat.. this old girl hasn't used up all its 9 lives just yet.
when you going to start it us compression release to get engine turning to build up oil pressure them release compression lever it better on starter and batters
I found after working with it, the compression release has been disabled.. it don’t care where the Shaft is at.. it’s going to run.
Now that’s cool!
😊 thanks
That's sad! After so long, and she finally gets kicked out of the car port!! Poor girl!!!
Haha!! Yep, we’ll to be fair everyone was getting kicked out due to the place being sold. I really did rescue the old girl, the owners were going to have it hauled off for scrap since it had not run in several years and they didn’t know if it would even move.
Cat's never die!!!!!
And if they do, the still have 8 lives left... with right mechanic that is. 😁
Older cats never die
Am I the only one, while this thing was trying to start saying come on girl? You’ve been sleeping long enough time to get back to work!
I personally felt the same way, I was taking a shot in the dark she's was going to run and operate at all...Old gal has surprised me 😁
Terlihat tua sekali alat ini😊😊
That is a 3t series , (d7b) it's from 1945-1955, so,s it's older n u stated, & it's gonna b @ least 34000lbs.
Thanks, 👍
I’ve learned a lot about this old CAT since I got it going. Still haven’t found a serial number on it, but like you said it’s a 3T and heavier than I thought it was.
Awesome
Thanks 🙏
With blade it weighs close to 30000 lbs
Its a 3T made befor 1955 up to56 my 17A is a 1956
Thanks for the information
I still haven’t found an id tag on it, after doing some more digging I suspected it was prior to 55. Its nice to have some confirmation on it.
My grandaddy had 2 3ts and 2 2u D8s
Seirial number is under the winch LH upper frame
My d7 looks a lot like your dozer
Does yours have a Cable control unit on the front as well, if so I’m curious what year it may be?
@@Yellowdogsworld no my dozer does not it is a hydraulic dozer
Cool, well I’d say you got a good one then, the hydraulic ones are a lot easier to control. 👍
@@Yellowdogsworld yes sir
@@Yellowdogsworld yes sir mine is a 150 hp and it has 1 million and 65 hours on it
Prapps
If you ever want to sell the old girl let me know
Sure will, but it may be a little while before I get to that point.
Might want to check the weight again!?? Should weigh around 34000 lbs.
I wish I had a reason and the means to run it over a scale just so I would know for sure. I've read & heard its anywhere from 25000 to 35000 LBS. I guess at the end of the day it don't really matter unless your planning on hauling it on the highway. One things for sure.. you don't want it to run over your toes 😁
