fxfymn Posted April 29, 2017 Share Posted April 29, 2017 Probably a several million dollar machine and they still couldn't engineer a way to keep rain from running down the stack. I can imagine the morning routine " Hey John, run the loader over here so we can pick the trash can off of the grader." And there must be two of them since you can see another trash can covered stack over the front right tires. 1 Quote Money, sex, and fire; everybody thinks everyone else is getting more than they are!

I can imagine the morning routine " Hey John, run the loader over here so we can pick the trash can off of the grader." And there must be two of them since you can see another trash can covered stack over the front right tires. It was built in Portogruaro Italy by the Umberto Acco company. Weighed on a 200 metric tons / 430,000 pounds. That and the 183 Metric ton /393,450 pound Super Bull Dozer were built specifically for Mommar Gaddafi ,but not delivered because of the U.N. trade embargo.against Libya. Acco ceased its existence when both Umberto Acco, the founder, and soon after, his son, died. They left no legacy to the management of the Acco company. In 2008, the main and secondary shops slowly turned into a dump yard of any kind of earth moving machinery, including the super grader and .the super bulldozer Edited April 29, 2017 by 41chevy 2 Quote "OPERTUNITY IS MISSED BY MOST PEOPLE BECAUSE IT IS DRESSED IN OVERALLS AND LOOKS LIKE WORK" Thomas Edison “Life’s journey is not to arrive at the grave safely, in a well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, totally worn out, shouting ‘Holy shit, what a ride!’” P.T.CHESHIRE Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/49681-king-of-the-road-graders/#findComment-368640 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Mike Posted May 10, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted May 10, 2017 I'm guilty also for having one and only one when I was a kid. My bike was faster in the 1/8 mile than anyone else on the block. (In my dreams) with it. But later found out from my brother that cardboard in the spokes was even FASTER and had a tuned header sound. 3 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/49681-king-of-the-road-graders/#findComment-369520 Share on other sites More sharing options...
mowerman Posted May 10, 2017 Share Posted May 10, 2017 Yes we used to do a lot of those also clothespins and baseball cards now I am wondering how many thousands of dollars I put in the spokes but they sure sounded good especially the first couple of minutes...
