I'm looking at an Oliver-Cletrac DD. It was parked outside about 20 years ago judging by the size of the tree grown up in it. The above mentioned tree is about 20" dia. and is grown around the left track adjuster. The crawler is complete, but will need the entire undercarriage rebuilt and all the stuff that goes bad from setting outside (seat, gauges, handle grips, etc.). The left track is off and the idler needs replaced. The engine, steering clutches, hydraulic pump and hydraulic cylinders were all supposed to have been rebuilt just prior to being parked. I couldn't tell if the engine is stuck or not, but it does have a rain cap still on the exhaust pipe.. It has a Heil dozer blade with it. The owner is willing to haul it for me if we can winch it on his lowboy. Knowing the owner for as long as I have, I trust what he is telling me about it. Give me an idea of what to offer as a fair price.
Thanks,
Geoffrey
