That's a solid looking truck. Cosmetically, all I would do is replace the front bumper and splash pan and make it road worthy. Can tell from the pictures but is that a long wheel base 2 ton?

Welcome to the big bolts olddozer! I presume you have dealt with a dozer at one time or another. I've got a small little Cat that we play around with on our farm.

Yes she is solid but Ive been told shes a 3 ton things are a little different weight wise here in Canada but the only holes I could find were 2 small ones 1 in each fender about the size of a 50 cent piece and the cab corners everything else is original and operatioal. I run dozers for a living the company I work for was doing a road job where this truck was and was dumping the excess material there where I found both old trucks and made a deal for them both.
