Maddog13407 Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 nope, both were faded out red, 68 with the v8 and 69 with the 237 but the 237 was a 74 and came from Levitts dumpster service and had a rolloff on it at one time. the garbaged juices eat everything up and the frame was spliced bad and then used by loggers, you know what happens with loggers.

Maddog13407 Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 this one ran like a chanp but was beat to hell. was a tandem axle tractor originally with a double over quad, double disk clutch and 44 rears with air lockin power divider. must have been nice new. was not much after logger use. had a prentice log loader on it before we bought it. the one with the 237 had the cheap 34 rears with 3 leaf walkin beams i think and they were totally shot, bent twisted housings and the beams half wore thru the trunion. frame was toast as it had been cut and spliced many times and ended up with log bunks on it after the roll off service got rid of it. i went to drain the oil from rears and tranny, pulled plug and nothin came out.
