mike962 ◊ 2014-11-06 12:51	if there are no other shots I say this is a CAT from the 60s, notice distinct bucket mechnism , fenders and rear side panels http://www.album-mmt.it/details.php?image_id=65962 http://www.album-mmt.it/details.php?image_id=97579 Link to "findtractorparts.com" model is likely 922 -- Last edit: 2014-11-06 12:56:40
CougarTim ◊ 2014-11-06 13:10	Looking at the size of the wheels compared to the Cadillac, I'd say it's larger than a 922. Probably a 944 - /vehicle_18143-Caterpillar-944-A.html - or maybe a 966.
mike962 ◊ 2014-11-06 13:26	I agree the problem with this 60s CAT loaders are that they had same design , I describe them like SHOES , same thing juast different sizes which makes it hard to ID exact model
Alessandro58 ◊ 2014-11-06 14:19	mike962 wrote anymore shots of it ?? This is the best shot to ID...
