Not mine!
 
 
D Diesel Grader.  Tulsa OK.  See pics and bids on GSAAUCTIONS.GOV  look in the Construction Equipment section.  Just over 3 days to go on auction.  Current bid is $760.00.   You cannot sneak in at the last second on a bid at this site.  That type of bid extends the auction end time.

I doesn't look that bad. It wouldn't be hard to find another engine or parts to rebuild that one. I wish it were closer to me at that price.

Wasn't there a gasser model with a WD45 engine?  Seems it would be easy to switch it over, maybe not!?!?

I wonder how long a trailer it would take to haul it?  Looks like it's at an airport, not at the FAA office as the address indicates.

The D grader and the DD grader (diesel version) over the years used the same gas or diesel engine as the farm tractor of the same vintage, i.e. WD, WD45, D17 and 170. These were a popular series of tractors in their time and engine parts should be readily available. As for length and weight the overall length should be about the same as a full sized extended cab pickup. My D grader is less than 2' longer than my Jeep Cherokee pickup. The weight of that grader should be about 11,000 lbs.

Call the contact person listed.  From past experiences on there, and at work when I was involved, the folks are very helpful.  I bought a non running jeep and the guy put it on my trailer for me with a fork lift!  If the contact person is on site, they might even measure it for you.  I just bought an item and the lady had all of the specifics!
