We were talking in an earlier thread about the FS700 Mack trucks with the Big Al that Fiat Allis used for parts distribution.  I came across this video on Youtube that has some vintage footage of those trucks, along with alot of other good stuff like 41-Bs, 460C scrapers, and the inside of the Springfield factory.

Very neat! Must have been soon after FA got everything lined out the way they wanted it cause it went south! Too bad AC couldnt have kept in the business, or just another nail in the Allis coffin for Scott

The three projects highlighted are the Bakolori Dam in Nigeria, the James Bay hydro-electric project in Quebec, and a project (port expansion?) at Bandar Abbas, Iran.  I especially liked the twinned 41-Bs on the elevating grader- really cool, and the 460C scrapers.  I wasn't sure that Fiat had kept them on after the merger, but it appears they did for awhile.
