David Posted April 25, 2013 Share Posted April 25, 2013 Doesn't look like a B. Good old school machine. What is the prefix (first 3) of the VIN? I'm going to look at a 941B tomorrow.

jakebrake86 Posted April 25, 2013 Share Posted April 25, 2013 Looks good... My dad and I are working on getting his 44A series D6B back up in operating shape. The only difference I see are our steering clutches come out of the floor, where yours are in the dash. Just like an old Mack truck... you can't beat an old Cat!

hicrop10 Posted April 26, 2013 Share Posted April 26, 2013 Great little machine,we had 2-D6 of the same vintage.The only thing wrong with ours and the one you have is the tilt for the blade.You do it by the 2 pedals on the left,it will give you a real work out.Good luck.
