Caterpillar Ten

Had to move the little Ten out of the shed to get to some stuff so might as well drive it around some.

It's just a baby Caterpiggle! When it grows up it will turn yellow and sprout wings!

[@matthughes1614]

I want to find a caterpillar ten, and add it to my small collection of random old iron. It will take me a long time, but I'll snatch one up someday somehow. I love watching this guy work, he has a similar style of working to mine. Thorough, and passionate.

[@colin8532]

I wish they still made something like these, they'd be awesome for those of us who are hobby farmers. Little blade on the front, PTO, pull a little plow....they'd be awesome!

[@RangieNZ]

They're called a skid steer! :)

[@colin8532]

@@RangieNZ - HA, good point! No cool factor though

[@terrycannon570]

The 10 is a sweet little machine. Thanks for bringing us along

[@rickb5946]

Did anyone else notice how easy that thing started after sitting all winter??? Some guys are just born to be mechanics!!!

[@northstar2007]

I think this is the first time I've seen your CAT10 and it really has a nice pleasing sound to me. neat little tractor!

[@Kraals]

If a dozer can be called "cute", I'd say the Cat 10 is cute.

[@robertinscoe2379]

Man i love that little cat. Rewatched all the old videos.👍👍

[@corpnut2906]

That looked like so much fun. Use it to go get mail and pull a little trailer for stuff that shows up at the mail box. ;-)

[@anthonyhoult152]

That's really is a beautiful looking machine and looks like so fun to drive and I would so love to drive a cat one day

[@lukestrasser]

I remember what a disaster those lower track rollers were on this machine. I think it would be a fun machine to pull some draw bar implements with, like the tumble bug perhaps, or your little genius 2 bottom plow, or the spring harrow! I really enjoy the purr of that early Cat gasoline engine. Cheers Squatch!

[@georgeogg4948]

Everybody has a machine they don’t play with enough but would never be without. Great videos 👍

[@johncordell2677]

I just recently got one of these little Jems. It was headed to the scrap heap and I traded for it. Looking forward to the challenge of getting it going and running it around

[@certified68crazy3]

I honestly believe that little Cat is my favorite of all , what a sweet little machine . Please show it off more often and thanks for sharing .

[@John900C]

The wavy "art nouveau" Caterpillar on the rad is hilarious and make this sweet little tractor look even more like a toy. I wonder how that whimsical trade mark was ever sanctioned by the board for such serious equipment.

[@mortson978]

I have been looking for a hat with that logo. Can't find anybody who sells em. Not much demand apparently.

[@mortson978]

Man oh man, that Ten runs good, it was ten's series that made me subscribe

[@KennyKizzleRustyNutzRanch]

Very cool little Cat! Started right up, as well. Now that's something I could probably get by with owning. :-)

[@GVBiggs524]

Wouldn't mind having that little Dozer myself!

[@alvindueck8744]

Beautiful machine. Spunky too

[@garyfeltus9801]

Learn something new all the time. That was a cute little cat.. did not know you had that. Thanks for sharing.

[@Vance_Nickerson]

Awesome little tractor. So looking forward to the pony engine rebuild. Purchased a pony supposedly running for my D47U but I don't want any trouble with it and will tear it down and freshen it up before installation. The previous owner held the latch engaged with a pry bar and broke the engagement lever or bent it so i can't use it anyway. Will pull the engine and fix it correctly so I can start it by myself. Keep up the good work and you looked like you were enjoying the ride a little bit much. Drag the tumble bug scoop and we can imagine that you were having to work.

[@alwaysbearded1]

Looks like you've had a lot of fun there. Might exceed your limit be careful. I can see that being a first tractor for grandkids/kids and adults. Glad you had fun today. I hope you find a good starting engine in your save pile too!

[@forbes80751]

Squatch, have you ever thought about using the little cat 10 to drag other projects around when you need to move them? It seems like it would be great for that job!

[@eddiemortontapman7252]

I put dual tires on my harbor freight hand truck with (2) on the semi hard tires and a longer axle . Really easier to push and handles heavier loads ! FYI . Great Channel ! (stay safe you and your Dad )

[@markbehr88]

What a fantastic little dozer.

[@seastacker8582]

What a cool little machine! Sounds great. Love that classic wavy cat logo.

[@thomasmarion3209]

I like the idea of putting parts in creates 👍i thank you for the idea i have so many parts that need to be stored in a dry place and away from the elements

[@dearanel936]

God I love that darling Little treasure of yours a very beautiful machine and she lit right off with the greatest of ease

[@donaldwallace7934]

Fun little tractor to drive it appears. Makes a heck of an aerator!! 😀

[@ram50v8]

Strangely, watching this video reminded a book I read about 50 years ago titled "Bulldozer" It was about a D2 found in the bottom of a lake, recovered and made operational again. Don't know why I never thought about that book during your D2 rebuild.

[@rickb5946]

Iread that book in the 6os!

[@michellehoefer5922]

"Bulldozer Bill".Hesitate to say I read it too,on such a manly man channel.I read it a bunch! The author had another book-"T Model Tommy".I checked a few years ago and they wanted $60-70 for either one.Nostalgia isn't worth that!

[@bobpaterson1845]

What a sweet runnin little engine that is 👍 never seen a 10 before but a friend o mine had a 20 👍👍

[@tvoyds7035]

Awesome! I was just wondering where the old girl was! Good too see it on the channel again!

[@colin8653]

That little fellow is quit a beast for its size it looks like it would be a hole heap of fun to ride around

Now this is a toy dozier for big boys it's just as cute as a bug!

I know this is a old post but this is a cool and small tractor that hardly takes up any parking space.

[@treyrosenmeyer9097]

That is an awesome little tractor. Wow!

[@michaelscriffiano8765]

Cool little tractor....

[@whotknots]

Your little Cat ten evoked some memories for me because I have an old black and white image of a distant ancestor standing behind a Holt tractor holding a pair of long reins connected to the steering levers. Some years ago now I got yarning to a bloke who had a larger than normal and fully functional Holt on display at an annual state fair in South Australia. He told me some holts had eyelets cast on the steering levers because many early users preferred to walk behind a tractor as though it was a team of horses since they preferred to align furrows that way when they ploughed. The explanation sounded plausible enough to me not only because I have an image of an ancestor doing precisely that but I can't imagine any other reason for the eyelets I have seen being present on the levers! The owner of the same Holt also told me he was once approached by an American guy acting on behalf of a US collector who offered him a phenomenal sum of money for his unusually large and rare Holt but he refused to sell. Apparently he bought a vineyard and winery where the old machine was derelict as a display feature on a lawn where it had been slowly rusting away due to repeated exposure to a watering system. He said he managed to scrounge or repair sufficient parts to restore it to full function and was very attached to it.

[@michaelbaumgardner2530]

Very cool first time I've saw it run since I've been watching.

I'd like to see you drive to the grocery store and back on the Ten. Head turner for sure.

[@1crazynordlander]

Brakes are confusing unless you have an old John Deere or an Oliver or if you have any of the other popular old and new tractors This outfit would be easy if you are used to old Farmall tractors. Great video! Full watch and Like!

[@harrowtiger]

A neat little unit.

[@glovishowell7794]

Hey Toby, It's really good to see you having fun and you don't appear tired and stressed. I think you should do this more often. Of course, easy for me to say,,,,,BUT if you stress yourself out and have the big one it is all for nothing then. Just want you to take care of yourself. I'm 78 and have a different perspective. Take C are of Toby. Hey!!!that sounds like a good name for a movement??? Anybody agree??????

[@juztyn00]

You need a proper barn to line up all your treasures in. Cool little Ten. It needs a job to come out and do on a regular basis.

Toby - I see that you use Evapo Rust - this chemical is expensive but an excellent option for removing corrosion in specific applications such as small intricate components.

[@brandonoswald2392]

You are truly at home on a Cat.

[@heybiker]

Maybe some tract pads like on the Minneapolis Moline has to lessen the soil grooves. Then period blade or tumble bug for light close quarter work.

[@MoparNewport]

Anyone else half expecting Squatch to put rubber grousers on it and drive it to work? Nice lil machine that one, would be fun!

Maybe you should pull your spring tooth with it the next time you do some dirt work, it would save you from having to unhook and re-hook the H so many times.
