Bringing home 69 Pete

[Hawssie]

I have a D8H that I am still holding on but its hard not to justify scrapping it. With rippers and a blade she weighs about 30-35 tons. Its a rare first year 1959 model called a 35A most of them are 46s or 36s. But we get almost 300 a ton for good Cat steel here in CA. That is if you can get it to the Oakland ports. And yes it goes right on a ship to China. I had a 1959 Pete a year ago thought about restoring it but I ended up selling it to that wrecking yard near Stockton CA. that specializes in old Petes maybe you have heard of it. Cant remember the name.
