Hi, Folks. Thank you, Rusty and Lee, for a very interesting and informative video. I knew of the #111 parts book prior to this video but I did not know that it still existed. GREAT news. I got to drive that #111 tractor at the Best Show Harvest Spectacular at Woodland, CA., in 2011. Itza BEAST. It is more than just a tractor though. It is a REAL work of art. The man who built it, Don Hunter, (RIP, Don) spared no expense to built it as a full scale working machine and the finish on the individual parts is simply amazing. Just my 0.02. You all have a wonderful day. Best wishes. Deas Plant.
Hi, Gavin. The story of the development of the D10 is pretty well laid out in Eric Orlemann's book, "Caterpillar Chronicle". Also has a fair bit about the "West Coast Connection" with Peterson Tractors. Just my 0.02. You have a wonderful day. Best wishes. Deas Plant.
