I bought another non running Cat D7F dozer at auction… does it run and move? Will my gamble pay out?

  • I bought another Cat D7F this time I had never seen it run or move. Hopefully we can get it running. We also double check some other items I bought

    Gotta love auctioneers with phantom bidders running up the prices ..they’re only slightly less scummy than politicians! That Cat might be a cream puff .

    My son and I farm at Corydon. Our u tube Chanel is hauswald farms. I’ve had knee replacement and have had lots of time to watch your U Tube channel. You amaze me on your ability to bring an older machine back to life that be of service to many people. I watch your auction videos and learn so much. We have a decent fleet of construction Equiptment that we use on our farm. Apparently you have Ben vey successful. Nice shop and the tools you use to accomplish the hardest task. Like your Pete. Along with your helpers.once again thanks for sharing your knowledge to me and many others

    Hey Clinton,
    Looks like you're going home with some nice equipment from this auction. That old D7F is a beast! Once you got it going, it just purred like a kitten. BY the time you go through it and make sure everything's OK, it will make someone a damn nice dozer. Looking forward to watching the next video.

    Difficult to tell when Clint has a rye smile - cos he kinda has one most of the time - but I did like the little aside about the "imaginary" bidder that the auctioneer thought he'd heard - and far more difficult with all those callers you have Stateside! Over here in Little Old England the flippin' hammer crew are "at it" all the time - uplifting bids, or slamming down just as the reserve is passed. I'm not as wide as Clint but at 6' 1" and wearing boots and a big hat - difficult to miss - yet I had to yell to one ring - "what have got to do to get you to notice me? Join the Magic Circle"? Next sale they gave me a wand.

    Lucky. Fresh paint on used equipment triggered old memories. "I'LL PAINT ANY CAR (or dozer) FOR $99.00." Earl Schieb. I was thinking if this was just lipstick on a pig.

    when looking at a item, pull the dipstick and pinch the oil, If its sticky, its laced with STP, then put a lighter to it, If the oil spits, there is antifreeze in it.

    I can't even imagine how stressful it is to go to these auctions and put up the type of money you have to for that much equipment and then have to ship it home. Sure you guys are great at what you do and will make money in the end but doesn't mean it's easy. Thanks for showing us a whole other side of the business. It was very interesting as always.

    😀👍🙏 Hi I just subscribed to this channel I like to see things like this to the comment I just read you bought another bulldozer and it don't run. May I say something politely and nicely you should always have an equipment checked out by someone that's an expert they'll tell you if there's really something wrong with it and not to buy it I'm being polite when I say this I done my bad mistakes in my life when I was going to buy some cuz I didn't know about it either I'm glad there's still people out there that are be honest with you and everything and tell you if it's not good or not thank you I'll watch one of your videos again very soon.

    Larry has an ex-Navy D7F but it’s configured a bit different. No throttle lever. It’s all in the decel pedal. The fuel primer pump sits vertically. His is a real peach. I think it has 1600 hours and original undercarriage. Manufactured in 1973. I was using it today, as a matter of fact. We use it to pull out the TD15B when it’s buried in the muck. Speaking of which, I need cutting edge and end bits for that machine. Guess I better call Clinton!

    That tractor brings back memories! Countless hours of stick time in that same machine as an Army engineer deployed using "seabee" equipment in the far Western pacific building roads in Micronesia in the early 80's. Hard work, long days but so worth it. Thanks for posting, take care and God bless.

    Between you and DP and Chris, I'm now going to be looking at local auctions for equipment, mainly due to price of new I can't afford it or justify the purchase, plus, older things I can actually learn to work on and fix them. One thing with your channel has given a lot of knowledge of older machines, and for smaller operations like myself... older is smarter and cheaper to deal with. Thanks for the vids, and auction vids so I can learn what to be looking for. Appreciate it kind sir!
