I also found one on my weekly Sunday morning drive a few miles from the house. I take backroads around here early in the morning on Sundays, just to drink coffee and look for goodies, and found a place with several old cases, and the rear end of a Struck dozer peeking out of a lean-to. Some day, I may stop. He has a bunch of other stuff too, but I can't quite tell what.



American Pickers!!

Dan, I belive Struck is the brand. This would be considered the Mini Dozer.

Looks like he put it on ebay with a parts machine.

The hydraulics look familar :) Definitely will be more resistant to getting stuck.

After seeing a pic of a real life one, I'd surely love to have one, but unless almost given to me, I'd have to pass as well.
Mack, is that a Magnatrac brand?

I went to Indiana last Thursday to pick up a Simplicity 725 with grader blade and spotted this up by the fellows garage. He wanted me to make him an offer on it. I declined saying I have too much stuff at the moment and did not need another "project" sitting in the garage.

Just think of the lawn you would tear up each time you spun a track.

Just think of the "stripes"

I believe it would be more fun than effective. I have a 9,400lb hi-lift IH T340 crawler and it can do a lot, but anything that small I just can't see having enough power & traction. For ultra light work I think it would get by ok. I figure if they were that great at working, they'd still be made today. That said, I would love to have one just to play with, and who knows, I could be a little off on it's capabilities...but not by much I don't think.

I really like the rear mounted grader with gauge wheels.
B112 Posted - 05/29/2011 : 09:20:43
Now that would be a really effective and fun tool. Would be interesting see one in action.

I'd bet money a company today would get sued for advertising loading it like that on two boards and no head room. Thats a accident waiting to happen. ANd probably did!!!

Did anyone else notice the one pic of Larry loading one into a Ford fullsize van? Looks like a nice fit.


LOL!

I had to sit down and read the whole brochure right after purchasing it. Very interesting. I like the sales point of it being considered a weekend project to put together. I would love to have a weekend project like that in my garage!

Thanks for the posting, real ineresting. One of those machines I've wanted to play with for years, hasn't happened yet.
