Watching you guys resurrect these old machines is the best! It would be cool get a behind the scenes video of what Kevin has to do to prep these old girls for paint. I’m sure others would also like to watch that type of content
I’d like to see all the prep Kevin has to do before he can even paint. I figured it was Chris, Letsdig18. I enjoy watching every video of you guys working on equipment. Good to see your boys learning the business.
If there ever was a candidate for blasting I believe that one is as much paint as it has on it.
They sure are going to miss you Mason , good Lucky Buddy!
You guys do a great job teaching Mason and Tucker. Tucker did a great job of welding
That Cat needs a major Kevin make over!
Great episode again guys, Tuckers welding is getting better and better and he is so modest too!. An LD18 logo on those new plates would look very nice 😀
I thought for sure he was going to cut those plates with his logo in them. I guess a sucker will have to suffice.
Cliff, Tucker is turning into a very good welder. You need to hire that young man. 😆😆😆
I think Mason should win the tool box/tools. 🙂
Great suggestion 👍👍🍻
I had a feeling that Chris wanted the D7 when i watched his video on it. He was having too much fun testing it out.
Doubt folks realize how DANGEROUS this work can be. The PINCH POINTS where one can lose fingers, or hands, are too many to count! 😳
Nice weld Tucker. 👍
Kev is the reason there's safety meetings!!! LMBO 😂😆😂
Tucker is a man of few words. But he can sure stack some dimes !!!👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Yes he is and yes he does. There is no reason to speak a thousand words when your work speaks for itself.
@@nathanscott7910 facts. Also the way Clint is raising these boys is awesome !!! The MERICAN WAY !!!
LD18 plates on the sides and the grille, a new paint-job and she'll purr for another 50 years!
You know, there is a lot to be said in favor of older equipment Clint. No "government juice", no electronics, no computer and seemingly built heavier duty. Great job in bringing the old D7 kitty cat back from neglect. I figured we'd see Chris (Let's Dig 18) since he was making the TH-cam rounds in Indiana but didn't expect to see Matt (Diesel Creek). Great stuff, as always
I really admire your skills and attention to detail. I also think it would be great to see how you go about doing a paint job on one of these old units. It's got to be incredibly time consuming!
a very good video Well Done Mason for putting up with the OLD people
Nice to see Matt at your shop 👍
Wow that's one smooth kitty! That's the perfect cat for Mr Chris I can't wait to see him putting it to work down here in NC.
Hey Clinton nice job ,but mostly thank you and Kevin and Mason for a great laugh it's nice to see guys paying each other out ,and enjoying each other's company while working really enjoy your channel Mate,better than TV
Cheers Kym
Adelaide
Thanks 👍
What a fun job making old junk work
It says something when a young man like Tucker has to step in and fix some other clown's work. Good to see
Always try to make the machines look as good as possible for Chris!! All this old cat dozer stuff makes me want a old D8k !!
I'd love to see Kevin's paint job and transport to buyer. Sandblast and a new coat of paint really makes for a complete unit.
I laughed out loud in the opening seconds when the blur was still present on top of your C&C logo!
I've always wanted one of those I operated one in the US Army in Bavaria in the Alps and fell off the side of the mountain skidding 5000 ft down into the valley. The D7 caterpillar climb straight back up to standing ovation.
The youtube is let's dig it 18
38.21 I know my eyes are old but that looks like a crack on the inside opposite of the plate with that B Pressure Weld 😂😂
Great job as always.
That ole cat sure sounds good
Tucker always seems nonplussed, but he does one heck of job welding!
That’s why Clint is the Boss “hey is that clean?” Ooops Kevin!
You could surprise him by making the front grill with his logo. Or paint a fire extinguisher with his logo. Keep up the video's
Chris keeps buying that old reliable equipment!! Looking forward to seeing it finished on your channel, and running on Chris' channel!
Kevin is Curley Howard. 🤣
I said it. 😆
Great welding by Tucker. Developing some amazing skills, as is Hunter. I hope they realize how blessed they are to have the family they do. And then there is Kevin. Thanks for sharing.
That’s some fancy footwork there Clint!
I SWEAR THT BULL DOZER WAS CRYING WHEN IT GOT TO YOUR DOOR.NOW DO YOUR MAGIC AN ONCE AGAIN YOU WILL HAVE A GREAT HARD WORKING DOZER.
I'd love to see the full restoration work on this project. Love the collaboration with Chris . Great content as always. Thanks for the upload.
After the conversation you had with Chris on Mike's livestream (and I've already seen Chris's video of him driving this beast around your yard), and the way he's been expanding his fleet, pretty much a no brainer.
Kevin without a doubt is the best most famous person that has ever ben on your channel. 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
It's been three months since this was posted, this is principally directed at Clint. I was introduced to you on another show obviously, that unfortuately was (gulp...)Dirt Perfect who I've since dubbed Dirt Nap. I pretty much immediately liked your productions & particularly the way you run your business. The camera reveals a great deal more than one can believe if you've an eye for detail. I immediately tagged you as a guy headed places. Success is slow in this industry obviously, I started seeing a serious advantage to Chris buying big gear from your shop. But he was a Volvo guy so I wondered. Then he started nabbing up other Cat gear. I hoped. If I could have wished this into existance, Chris would own three of your pieces now I bet. Point is, I'm thrilled this came about for his sake. As always, the best to your family, your business especially Kevin & to you personally. Thanx.
Can you please ask Tucker to smile 😃 more lucky boy should have a smile from ear to ear!
I think Chris letsdig18 has a softness for those old machines because a couple of his newer machines left him stranded because of emissions problems
Very impressive job on the welding Tucker!!! Beautiful welds!!!😊
Thanks 👍
looking forward to the C.A.T. picture !
Sounds good
Looks like fun when you were running it around the yard
Mr. and Mrs. C are going to pick me for the tools just saying 😁😜❤️😜😁😜❤️
Clint, that’s a beast of a dozer! Take care and I’ll see you down the road…
I wish this tractor was gonna get painted!!!!
enjoying your videos about diesel equipment,something I know little about.Your boys dont know how blessed they are to have you, a good father
That was certainly one huge scoop Mrs Clint of C&C had. So much to done on this old D7F and more in Kevin's trusty hands. Would love to see you in North Carolina with LetsDig18. Great video thank you and well done Mason.
Great video. Nice old iron for sure. Will fit in good with Chris's collection.
Omg this gonna look FN Awesome!!!!!!
This CAT pile looks like a little beast!! Chris finally gets a set of rippers, but there backwards for him 😂 Interesting for sure, and every piece is heavy 😂 Nice work guys!!👍🇺🇸
Kevin's a Big Bully! We never knew 😉
Either Mike of Dirt Perfect, Chris of LetsDig18, Matt of Diesel Creek, Andrew Camarata or Captain Kleeman.
I put 5 choices. But I'm probably way off base. Lol.
Uncle Scott started one bolt...his day is complete....
🤔💡 You're not a bad influence Sausage Fingers. You're a good teacher. 😊
Hey Clinton, You and your team did an awesome job fixing that beast! Nothing worse than a crippled cat! Definitely want to see the sand blasting and cosmetic surgery by Mr. Sausage Fingers himself!! Put a black racing stripe down the middle of the pads for Chris! :) Thumbs up! Stay safe! Jim
Man I can’t wait to see you guys turn this back to a new kitty 🐈⬛. This is the mark of a true visionary. You have to look past the problems and know what you are going to turn it into. I always said that was nice because I bought some what people thought were turds and turned them into green.
The difference between knowing what's junk and what just needs a little (or more) TLC. Takes a good bit of knowing what you're doing to know what you can actually do.
@@bobmahnamahknob You can’t learn that in a book and did my college Economics Degree help do that ? Not one bit. I taught myself over the years.
@@moman0166 I worked for a two or three man do it all operation for years. We had tractors, bush hogs, chipper, 8 ton dump. Nothing huge, but we'd go out and work em all day then fix them in the evening. Learned SO much just doing it. Get the manual and dig in, right?
Tucker the Tacker comment made a good laugh
Really nice restoration thus far, can’t wait to see Kevin’s perform his magic
Turning the ugly duckling into something Letsdig into something he’ll be proud of.
When I drop big radiators in place, if possible I will use 1/4” ply wood on front and back side with a tie down wrapped around to protect the core and fins.
Kevin wears the best T-Shirts!
Another great video, thank you for sharing, i learn a lot , always a pleasure see the dream team working 👍👍👍👍
Chris.....don't go yellow, go all black. 1. It will look badass(and dirty) 2. If it gets stolen, put out an APB for a mean, badass, dirty dozer.
Good for Chris going back to CAT yellow!
Watching Clint's feet on those pedals reminds me of a 1/2 mile outlaws racer. Great video - fun all the way around! That weld on the left side blade tube was referred to as "chicken daubers" and that would get everyone in the shop to come over and laugh, that would offend the chickens. We know Tucker can seam stitch a weld like a pro 😁
I always called it pigeon sh*t and looked around to see if there were any about... LOL
I thought it would of been Chris or matt! Cause both guys like them old iron machines! And I don't blame them one bit! The old units were built to last!!!
Well Chis maybe can break in 47:14 the pile of kitty poop in building roads in NC looking forward to seeing it on his channel he will give it great home it will be taken care of for sure awesome watch as always 👍👋🇨🇦
On the opposite side of that patch job almost looked like a crack. Thanks again for the great video and content.
Hi, that was the model of kitties cat I ran back in 78 at Ft. Leonard Wood, Missouri
I’m glad chris bought it , going to a good home
D-7 was a solid work horse !
So Mrs C finally got to use that 'penciled in' invoice from DP's live stream😄 Nice sale Clint 👍
Letsdig18, only because he posted his video 1st
Definitely want to see as much as you can post on that machine. Specially the paint job.
Kevin's camo paint jobs are my favorite Chris wants it the cat yellow
About time you did a collab with him. He likes nice things and it is obvious that you put out nice things. Can’t wait to see the next step.
42:27 Enjoyed seeing Matt from Diesel Creek make an appearance . I am subscribed to both of your channels .
I like how Kevin saw the pad burning on the table and just covered the hot piece of metal back up with the burning pad.
Either Diesel Creek or Letsdig18.....att or Chris🎉
Nailed it the first time! Matt from Diesel Creek!!
That has let's dig all over it!!
Low hours..drove on Sundays.. and holidays..great condition.. we'll take it. Another happy customer.
You showed all the easy parts of the cylinder rebuilds :)
I'd like to see the prep and paint work.
My fingers, hands, wrists, elbows, shoulders, and back ache just thinking about that. Even if they sand blast it there is going to be hours, and hours, and more hours hand sanding that beast because of all those crazy tight corners but that is what it takes to get a good paint job, lots, and lots of prep work
@@gullreefclub That's exactly right. 👍
Lol lol that was operator my butt!!! Doing great job guys
It’s great you have an inspector checking you out when you reassemble the radiator
Chris needs to take the winch off and put on some rippers. One of his machines needs them and a D7 might be the best choice. I think to name the D7 "KITTY" and cut out metal letters like the Caterpillar lettering and attach them to the sides where the driver sits. I also would like to see the restoration process after the repairs.
At the very begining when Kevin was holding his finger out I thought he had lost it and adopted a lady bug.
Yes I can see you perfect , actually the camera comes in really clear👍
Keven almost poked me with his eye !! Not Dirty Feet himself !!??!! 🤠
I figured in his vid this was coming. It is going to make him one damn fine machine.
Good job getting the dozer running and operating good.
Matt I expected but Chris was a surprise.
Hunter is getting good
KEVIN NEEDS A DIRT PERFECT OPERATOR MY ASS T SHIRT LOL
Let's see IT in action in NC.
Another great video, crew. Always enjoyable, interesting, educational, informative and entertaining.
BTW, the new camera is much more crisper. Thanks for protecting our eyes, Clint 😂👍👍🍻
Kitty Cat ,,Meow!! lol ..Coffees on!! Kevin Rocks!! Cheers!;-)!
