I remember going up the 11stairs to get to the operators platform of the AC HD41 at the 1973 State Fair.
Mel, Good to see you posting again! I'm enjoying following your HD21 rescue - Thank you. It seems like we watch the CA fires on the news everyday. Glad you are ok. Prayers to everyone there in CA.

Mel/All:
Any ideas on how many HD 21G units were sent out of Springfield?
Am glad Mel and his team were able to secure this machine and keep it where it belongs - in the USA!

Wow. Great story. Love to see something recovered and restored. The previous owner will be smiling down on that machine when it runs again.
Looking at the first pictures, I thought that dozer isn't so big.....Then I see the picture with people standing next to it.....Wow that is a big beast.
Will be watching this one.
