That's Gunnar - he's mine - 2.5 y/o full Montana Bitterroot Bobcat - weighs about 30 lbs
He's got free range around the place and then inside at night - we've had him since he was about 1lb and 26 days old
Acts a lot like a dog at times but is lots of fun; super busy and curious though -...
I drive by pyro on my pickup now after lancing holes in 2 pistons of a 6.5 due to a overfueling condition I did not know about (no pyro installed) ...
And no build on the trailer yet - will start one when it comes time to really get going on it
It's the 855 Cummins Naturally Aspirated - was kinda acting like a dog towing the wrecker so I need to turn up the fuel and get a turbo on that thing... Will need a boost and pyro then too...
I am building a RGN beam trailer with hydraulics to pick it up by the belly - it'll be 8ft of deck width and the tracks can hang over the edges - the LVT has 100" between the inside edge of the tracks...
Since I am modifying the trailer I get to set the height to whatever - the core I am using...
I wonder if that's the phantom one in Canby, OR - been talking to a guy off and on for a few years who said he helped the owner of that tractor work on some other vehicle projects but the LVT was buried in the back of a warehouse... I've been trying to get access to just see it for a few years...
I am still working on the transport angle - hence the 931... I have a 5th wheel trailer I am going to modify and yes it's 11ft wide so that adds another layer into the mix...
This one has been repowered with a 6 cyl diesel in the bed - it originally had a Continental W670A 7 cyl radial up...
No chain pulling - only the thing that does that around my place is the wrecker...
Yep it's a 1945 LVT-4 from the Buffalo NY Icebreaker fleet - got it trucked home last June - finishing the walls on the shop before I get going on it...
There is a good thread here...
That's funny - the ford wagon is my buddy Brads - in the video Kelly, myself and Brad are standing in front of it ;)
JH1 - Good to see ya there - on the A2 I am not sure what the main differences are - I know the wrecker bed didn't change until the 900 series and even then the only change was...
Yep - always a solid event and a fun crowd - super low key and chill - it's always nice to be able to bring out a few of my big toys and not drive for hours (the M931 and M543a2 wrecker in the back row were mine)
My person fav was that little Navy GPW in the second row - just a simple clean rig...
