So after finding out what happened when I tried to start this old Caterpillar, Broken Magneto Gear, it's time to tear into the pony motor and see what caused it to break!
We are going MUCH further into it than I planned, but once it's finished, we can be confident it will be ready for another 50 years!

Would you be interest in owning an old track link or track pad from Old Red? I am planning to offer them as memorabilia in order to help raise some funds to put toward some of the MAJOR things this old CAT tractor needs.
If you'd be interested in helping out and / or Owning a piece of "Old Red", please leave me a comment letting me know, or send me an email at salvageworkshop@gmail.com, I truly appreciate it!
Throughout this project we'll pay tribute to it's previous owner Red & those before him that truly knew how to maintain and operate such a cool old machine like this!
I'll show you that OLD machines CAN be a LOT of work, EXTREMELY frustrating at times, but once running properly, an INCREDIBLE amount of fun!!
I recently discovered this 60+ year old Caterpillar TraxCavator at an old chicken farm, and the owners have honored me with the privilege of bringing it back to life, and then putting it BACK TO WORK!
Join me as I take you along on my journey through the many ups and downs of this project! I feel honored to be taking on this project, and I truly hope you enjoy the process and progress as we get this OLD CAT to ROAR once again
Please enjoy! I know I did!
