This is the first in a series which will be releasing over coming weeks.

In this video, Garlic Mom, Dutch, Darren, Tom, Doug, Eber, Audie and I work on the Bay City crane.

Dutch gets the six cylinder Hercules engine running for the first time in thirty or forty years.  We only run it briefly because we need to fill it with water and assess the rest of the crane's works.

Most of this video shows us moving a nice Oliver wheel tractor which was sitting behind the Bay City.  Another person had bought the Oliver and we needed to move it to have good access to the Bay City.

We had a lot of fun and the 966 was a great tool for this recovery.

Please watch the videos, like and subscribe.  Comment over on YouTube or here and we'll answer questions and tell more of the story.

Pete.

Looks good Pete. I would like to see a tour of that yard. One of the first semis I drove was just like that N1000 Ford you loaded up on the Lowboy. 1964 that had a 220 Cummins with a 4X4 trans.

Thanks for watching, Chuck. Hopefully in upcoming videos you'll get a bit more of a look around.

There will be more on that Ford. That one has a Cummins too, may be a 220. It is the one that is leaned over at about a 20 degree angle. Really neat truck.

We recovered it, brought it to my friend Darren's and it is parked there for now. An upcoming video will show the recovery. I'll try to do a walk around and feature rundown, too.

Pete.
