Incredible old machine, and what a clever starting process. Great to see the old machine being used and still doing useful work.

I’m impressed on how well he can grade with it. He must have put some time in the operators seat.

Love these old machines. Still work and start up after years of standing. New stuff has made us dependent on expensive workshops

It is very awesome to me that a machine rapidly approaching 100 years old still works, and well enough to do real work if it was needed for it. To those who are saying otherwise, this engine sounds very healthy, with the exception of the fact that the operator was suffocating it to death. The trailer loading was PAINFUL. Why was he so dedicated to keeping it so suffocated? Open it up a little and it'll climb that trailer like it's not even there. She's clearly still sound; she can definitely take it!

So, that's me in the video. This machine is a barn queen and has a sticky clutch, as well as some other issues. I never snap the clutch all the way in up that trailer as it can be very dangerous. I usually move this on an RGN.

A lot of things built today will last longer than obsolete counterparts of the past. Many consumer products/industrial/commercial are engineered and manufactured at a much higher degree than in the past with superior materials, especially the latter two. It's true there's a lot of junk out there, but there's no need to make a sweeping generalization and deny some of the truly impressive modern engineering.

Doesn't matter to me if he was working it perfectly or not,this video was cool to see. I only ran one small Cat for a few minutes back in the 90s just for the experience. It was old(maybe 60s or 70s) but much newer than this one! It belonged to a company I worked for and the operator-owner trusted me to give it a try. Then I went back to my day's work happy with everything in general.

When I was a kid/teen in the 80's, we lived on the foothills and my neighbor had one of these tractors. My dad hired him several times in the spring to take down the tall weeds in our orchard. It was a beast. Very slow crwaler but very powerful because they're full of torque power. I love those old machines. Great memories, too.
