mike962 ◊ 2013-09-05 16:30	this can be listed as "Progresul" they build Libeherr buldozers under license in Romania starting in 1970 and this one does have a Liebherr look -- Last edit: 2013-09-05 16:30:37
Gamer ◊ 2013-09-05 16:31	So now you're taking on the construction equipment section?
mike962 ◊ 2014-03-14 20:31	MIS ID turns out google translate sucks , Progresul did build Liebherr products but only excavators , not bulldozers so back to unknown what is odd about this thing it has an old soviet CHTZ cabin but the rest nothing fits with soviet machine http://techstory.ru/foto18/14/s80_1953.jpg -- Last edit: 2014-03-14 20:31:38
mike962 ◊ 2014-04-18 17:10	I reanalyzed this thing see the evidence, it perfectly matches an UTB Universal S1500 except the cabin - noticed the cubed side panels - track chassis matches - grill matches - cylinder and blade mechanism perfectly match - exaust matches everything matches outside the soviet cabin, my only explanation is this was either some pre production and they fitted a soviet cabin or the original vehicle was cabin less and they fitted a soviet one in the shop see the evidence the curbed panel and comparison http://www.anunturiutilajeconstructii.ro/poze_s/2569_1.jpg -- Last edit: 2014-04-19 13:40:59
