    Nice find wayne, those are kinda rare actually. HW didn't make excavators very long, and primarily used DD engs. I was told by a bunch of experienced old timers on the Heavy Equipment forums that almost all the parts on these are "Generic" and can be found. Only certain things is Specific to HW. I've always wanted a C12-HD.

      I think the FOOT controls where because of the early Hydraulic Excavator tryed to keep the same foot controls of the Brakes on a cable Excavator
      early Link Belt Hydraulic Hoes, had foot controls for function. I think a Lot of operator in the 70s. where use to using there feet.

    Heh heh, after the bleeding of impure juices in the crankcase, I'm surprised that 6v53 started and ran that well!😄 The bee war was entertaining. I'm glad we don't have to deal with as many of those out west here. Considering what you were working with, and how long it sat, I'm surprised it made it out with only one broken hydraulic hose. Not too bad at all.. and it even starts from the cab! That's a real plus.😂👍
