Rescuing A Cat D7 3T Dozer Abandoned for 50 years!

[@johnthorpe8549]

Brings back memories. The same cat is what I learned how to skid logs with.

[@logjammin084]

Man what a dream find! One day 🤞

[@Good.Fellers]

Love an old Dozer!

[@johndunbar2393]

"Nobody stole it!" That's because you showed up and scared him off. Perfect timing, Gordy.

[@richardortiz8704]

Give me some Indio California I used to write one of those back in the 60s in Indio California in the desert

[@starpuss]

Nice to see you went back and got her!

[@artillerest43rdva7]

[@Bill89p3]

Love to see old equipment brought back to life

[@kevingilbert9695]

That makes for a good story. Thanks for sharing with us. That buck was fixing to take that tractor for a ride.

[@terrilstout8076]

Awesome. Cat logged with buddy back in the mid 70's. Yarded with a TD20, loaded with TD20 Drott with log forks. Always cleaned out the tracks at the end of the day with a clam shovel. Both cats started with pony motors.

[@tlars36]

Gotta love it, back to the olE girl loading it up and what a nice surprise seeing the buck come running out! Let her eat OR let her buck? 🤔🤣 Let there be life in the ole girl!! That is one heck of a find! And even the sounds it makes as it is rolling are not quite the same as all this new stuff, not just the ride difference in height. Thanks for sharing this Gordy!

[@westcoastsaw1368]

There is two things that old girl needs right away, a bath with a hot water, pressure washer, and a major fluid and filter change! Who knew when the last time the filters were changed?

@@westcoastsaw1368 yes I'm hooked on your KZbin channel, no BS, very entertaining, I have learned a lot watching you drop those trees. Keep up the good work, going to let my friends know about your page.

[@LukeLong-oi4uc]

I’ve been waiting for this video. Well done 👍🏼

Keep up the videos on this D7, please!

[@westcoastsaw1368]

Will do!

[@dannywhelchel4801]

That thing gonna be nice when you get thru with it

[@tedneitzel]

Awesome!

[@stokermeister3]

It will be interesting to see you get it back to operational status 😁

[@nateolmsted899]

Love it

[@briananderson7497]

Do you plan to just clean it up and get it to where it runs? Or do you plan to do a full rebuild, including the metal/paint? That Dozer should make some really good video content. Looking forward to it.

[@westcoastsaw1368]

I am planning on changing all the fluids first then I started a list of stuff I need to get for it just going to make it turn key so I can use it on my property

[@comingtofull-ageinchrist6736]

I was wondering what had come of this dozer after you got it started last time!

[@jasonmichaeljimenez]

I want to be like Gordy when I grow up.

[@westcoastsaw1368]

😂😂

[@Ned-p1y]

That deer scared the shit out of me

[@westcoastsaw1368]

😂

[@bryanchipps6572]

Be great to make a socket that would fit where that hand crank goes do you could hit it with a cordless impact

[@westcoastsaw1368]

It’s really not bad pulling it over once that motor started a few times I pull it once and it pops right off 👌

[@DougDrain]

That crank has to release, it is cut that way. A socket could really hurt you if it backfired. I dealt with a D6 that would throw the crank into the bush from time to time.

[@bosshogg3548]

Love the deer 😂

[@Leave_Nothing_Stock]

Guys got too much time on his hands😂

[@stockbanger]

Now let’s see what size cottonwood it’ll pull down

[@westcoastsaw1368]

Yes that’s the plan 😅

[@jasonstinson1767]

What’s the story on the Diesel Fifty? Kinda shape is it in?

[@sporranheid]

👍

[@rudycarlson8245]

Don’t forget the can of engine cocaine!😅

[@jamessutherland1911]

What year is that old girl?

[@westcoastsaw1368]

1953

[@pitts3219]

Hope didn’t give any more than scrap value for it

[@peterschmidt2849]

🤙🏻😎🇺🇸

[@RMSadventures-ie4fr]

nothing runs like a deer! too bad the cat wasnt a john deere LOL

[@LukeLong-oi4uc]

I’ve been waiting for this video. Well done 👍🏼
