This morning I've uploaded a video regarding UC Cane Tractors at work in Louisiana. I've found this vid on the I-Net a while ago and hope you like it. Thompson used a lot of AC parts to build their cane tractors.

Cool video. Was that cane harvesting rig mounted on a UC tractor? It looks like the operators might have appreciated live hydraulics so the wouldn't have to stop at the end, shift to neutral and roll back down in the field. Thanks for posting Dutchman. Charlie
