  • Hanging out with Andrew Camarata and Samantha Weber at an equiment auction. Ended up buying a 1986 Caterpillar 931B track loader that was missing parts. The bucket got sold separate, which we didn't know at the time. Thanks to Andrew and Samantha we found the parts and ended up getting the bucket for a small price.

    Hey that’s me at 6:25 with my business hoodie on 😂 i didn’t even see the camera. Glad you got that machine at a decent price. Some of that equipment went for way more then what it was worth, especially with the buyer’s premium. The older gentleman that told you that you got a real clean machine when you were loading it up was like a brother to Skip, he knew about everything on that property. Glad to see the loaders getting put back to work and you found the missing parts. The only thing i ended up getting there was the miller welder with the spool gun. Luckily it was the second to last item of the day so i got a decent deal on it lol.

    • @Dumpster_Dave
      @Dumpster_Dave  Год назад +3

      The guy that bought the bucket was the guy that basically bought almost everything there for scrap. The D6 in the beginning was a decent deal but wasn’t all that clean of a machine.

    • @pmiller7886
      @pmiller7886 Год назад +2

      Dave you got a smoking deal on a super clean machine, bad to the bone! That would go for 20 grand ++ with such low hours and no def/computer garbage on it. Take that rusty seat frame and prime/paint it, the dozer rates a good refresh.💪

ACMOC is the Antique Caterpillar Machinery Owners Club. It is a great resource for new owners with old Caterpillars.
