Greetings AC followers
New member here. Just purchased my first crawler. A HD16DC. Gets delivered today. Really geeked at getting it on the property.
Want to clean her up and re badge and decal it. All gauges work and looks pretty solid. Paint in the future as well.
Some things I will be looking for help with if possible.
1. Decals for this unit. Any ideas as to where to source them?
2. Would love to find the proper winch for it. I show it came with originally a AC Model 75 dual drum Cable control unit. Cant find one anywhere in my early searches.
3. Lastly, a good source for parts when the time comes.
Thank you everyone.

Welcome to the forum. I expected there would already be answers to your questions. I don't have the info but someone here does.

Welcome to the forum, Jerbob. Parts for all AC equipment can be an adventure in sourcing and improvisation. A lot of stuff can be found around these guys on the forum. I bought several decals Large AC Logo and classic AC Milwaukee) from Roberts Farm Equipment and Parts, Inc. in Ohio 1800 367 8751. I think Zimmerman in Versailles, Mo. has some HD16 stuff. Good Luck.

Thank you for the information doctorcorey.
This helps point me in the right direction. I know that many of the decals are uniform wether on a Farm Tractor or Dozer such as the AC logo and so on.
thank you again.
