    Great job! Now you know what needs attention and that you have something to work with. I truck through your area quite often.
    I for one would like to see more videos on this project. I have trouble finding time for weekly videos myself.

    Pretty nice. I have a approx 1973 OMC Mustang 310 which was their smallest machine at about 35" wide with a 14 hp Kollar engine. That I picked up around 1983. Mine just happened to have a 47" bucket

    I had an Owatona skidsteer. I really liked the T-bar steering, let's you steer with one hand. I had lots of problems with the Onan engine, gave up after replacing the engine . Otherwise it was great, just couldn't keep the engine from shaking apart. Once the heads stripped the bolts out. Would still have it if I could have figured out an engine that would hold up.

      Yeah that’s kinda how it is with the m-600 series and smaller Bobcats that had Wisconsin engines as well. This is the next size machines up from the ones that had Onan’s. A lot of folks swap them out for V-twin Honda engines. I’ve also seen some that had a bigger Harbor Freight Predator engine swapped in.

    That’s the same style lift linkage as on their large modern loaders.

      Yeah sorry about that, I’m still trying to learn how to talk to a camera and how to edit.

      ​@@koehlersmodsandrepairs4384I was the same way when I started out 3 years ago. I'm still learning to edit and record with an old cellphone. I'm currently working on an old Bobcat 444.
