Buying a track loader from the auction with Andrew Camarata

- Hanging out with Andrew Camarata and Samantha Weber at an equiment auction. Ended up buying a 1986 Caterpillar 931B track loader that was missing parts. The bucket got sold separate, which we didn't know at the time. Thanks to Andrew and Samantha we found the parts and ended up getting the bucket for a small price.

Cool. Glad you got that back together. I got to get those straps back. And let’s run the 1010
Sounds good 👍
I wonder if that battery hold down was for 2 4D batteries?
@@kwmiked Nope
Why can't you start these, or are they down as none running.
@Dumpster_Dave Nice find bro, I recommend you get a rubber mat below your battery so it doesn’t slide around or get grounded out over time. Well done
Dave - I like the professional restoration job you do on your equipment. When you are finished, they look like new!
Thanks
You did such a great job both fixing it and then painting it. You should be very proud. I am proud of all you did!
That is so nice Dave. Congratulations. You deserve it. Have a great weekend.
Nice piece of equipment Dave🙂 And it sounds like you got a great deal. I’m really happy for you👍
A bunch of guys that aren't afraid to get their hands dirty. Man, I love our country.
Hey that’s me at 6:25 with my business hoodie on 😂 i didn’t even see the camera. Glad you got that machine at a decent price. Some of that equipment went for way more then what it was worth, especially with the buyer’s premium. The older gentleman that told you that you got a real clean machine when you were loading it up was like a brother to Skip, he knew about everything on that property. Glad to see the loaders getting put back to work and you found the missing parts. The only thing i ended up getting there was the miller welder with the spool gun. Luckily it was the second to last item of the day so i got a decent deal on it lol.
The guy that bought the bucket was the guy that basically bought almost everything there for scrap. The D6 in the beginning was a decent deal but wasn’t all that clean of a machine.
Dave you got a smoking deal on a super clean machine, bad to the bone! That would go for 20 grand ++ with such low hours and no def/computer garbage on it. Take that rusty seat frame and prime/paint it, the dozer rates a good refresh.💪
Thanks Dave for your vid 😇💟💟💟 Love and bless you,
Dude im happy for ya ! That dozer was a bummer i could feel your frustration having grown up with a couple gas tractors that we constantly had to mess with ! A diesel is so simple and so reliable
Great job Dave on getting the 86 Cat 931B loader painted and put back together. cool track loader.
Great job I soak all bolts in vinegar over nite , and clean then use never seize on all bolts makes it easy five years later ! Old time millwright!
Nice job Dave , the AC Way !
Nice loader ......💪💪💪💪
"I'm light-headed...definitely good paint!" LOL. Great buy and enjoyed your video!
track loaders like andrews have definatly proven themselves very useful
Okay, you talked me into It. I don't know why I haven't subscribed before for I've been watching your channel for a long time. Please keep them coming. Thank you.
Thanks
Awesome Dave, very well done! That is a BARGAIN!
That machine will pay for itself in no time! It is a good machine with good provenance, Skip did look after his kit.
Just what you needed to add another dimension to your business.
It makes that horrible JD thing look puny.
Good job Team Samarata, they did offer sound advice.
Awesome, thank you 👍👍👍👍
Enjoyed the video Dave
Looks great, nice job!
You sir are one lucky Man to make friends with Andrew Camarata and make a video with him in it.
.
It just pushed you up so many stages that would maybe never happened On your own.
Bless you sire Hope to see many more videos from you Dumpster Dave .
You got a hell of a deal on that machine, certainly was a gamble though! Nothing more satisfying than watching the lipstick go on an old machine like that and it looking like new again.
Chill the pin in ice to shrink it👍👍👍👍👍
now that was a good find!!
Nice work there, Dave. You've got a "Clean Machine". Bro. Love it!
16:50 Universal man, expression of victory, known around the world 😂 Great video thanks for sharing
“DAVE YOUR BACK”!!! Awesome buy🤙🏼 I don’t know if you’re going to keep this one but you should make a forklift attachment for it so you can use it in a very muddy environment where regular forklifts can’t go? Something to think about? GREAT TO SEE YOU BACK!!🤙🏼💯
That would be nice.
@@Dumpster_Dave AWESOME 😎 make sure you post the video on your channel 😁🤙🏼💯
Larger CAT dealers usually have a used parts department- where you can find all sorts of older stuff at cheaper prices !!
This was fun to watch. Great content and final result!
Thanks for sharing
Beautiful. A world in which I do not live!
What a great deal and it looks like it will be useful for years to come. Awesome content Dave!
Great content! Enjoyed the video.
This track loader has a lot of years left to work!
Yes, He mentioned that it only had 1700 hrs.
Man you really got the deal of the year is a really awesome machine my favourite, congratulations David well done mate.

That was money very well spent young man, you got a really good machine by the looks of it. We’ll done

I leaned how to drive on a 94 Mack RD688s roll off with a fuller 8 speed in it.. man I thought I was the cats ass driving that thing up and down the boulevard… nice truck dumpster Dave.. Brings back memories seeing it..
Yeah there definitely good trucks
Great to see the old machine working again and I’m happy it’s in a home where it will be fixed
Done good Dave I will be watching your frind ant on anymore
Great purchase that machine is really nice. I like this size of machine with a clamshell bucket you can do a lot with them.
Ahh that sandpaper noise
Wooo - looks like a much better purchase than the old JD - Congrats on the fun new toy!
Thanks
I love andrew as a person so much and he's the most humble man alive
Thats a hellova deal on that old jewel, a little work putting it back together but that little time saved a lot of money
Great job, great buy!
Nice machine, congrats!
Thank you very interesting
Nice Job Looks Great
Thanks
Great deal on this loader ! Motor seems to run great. Well done Dozer Dave. I mean Dumpster Dave.
Nice work on your new Cat loader looks like you will need one more bucket tooth it should be easy enough to get . Best of luck with it !!
55:36 looking good, and she's purring like a kitten.
great deal, well done.. also evapo-rust will eat the rust rite off the metal..
Congratulations Dave. Nice score.
What a great video.
Very nice job with this machine, you got a great deal 👍🏼
Very nice Deal Dave Glad you got the bucket
Awesome machine! Can’t believe the price!! You have some nice equipment that Peterbilt looks sweet.
Thanks,
Diamond in the rough!
Coffees on!! Here weee go!!Cheers!!;-)!!
Freaking awesome my guy!! One hellava deal!! Man I bet u were happy when it started right up!!
satisfying to watch
Pressure washer would be great before you assemble the plates! Looks great Dave, good job brother!
Good thing he passed up the other equipment. Got much better deal.
Get some evaporust, you can put rusty screws and stuff in there and the rust vanishes over night and leaves good steel/iron. I've put whole vises through it, it's like magic. Good magic ain't cheap, though 😅.
These masks suck. Always sneaking into the eyes 😖. I mean better than no mask, still suck. Got me some FP2 class with exhale vent and never looked back.
Nice buy
Nice buy Dumper Dave!
Thanks
doing great job Dave from UK
Thanks
Reminds me of doing the rustolium roller paint job during my HS yrs, on my 67 Fury III 383 4bbl - every spring it would get a refreshed white rustolium paint job as the Central NY winter salt wrecked havoc on my lower qtr panels
Fantastic find, and find, and find. Damn nice cold start too.
Now you have got lots of parts 🤗. 😲Went for parts and now you have two machines😉 When will it end? oh the madness‼😂 You must already know about ACMOC and the importance of Cat serial numbers, Operators Manual, Parts Manual and Service Manuals. ACMOC is the Antique Caterpillar Machinery Owners Club. It is a great resource for new owners with old Caterpillars.
Remember now you go trolling at auctions with a can of 30w in your back pocket ...... Something is going to follow you home‼ True fact ask the rabbit .. ☝ there he goes now, over there down the hole 🕳.
🤣😂🤣
Lol thanks. I think the old machines are cool and easier to work on.
Nice pickup, should've thrown that rusted hardware into a bucket of rust reformer overnight.
Hey Bud take a look at C&C Equipment if your going to do more auctions and resale I have learned a ton from those guys, Good Luck I think you got a great deal.
CAT Paint is awesome! I use the Med Gloss black on all frame stuff i paint. It looks good when done, doesn't stand out and holds up very well..of course use gloss black if u want shiny frame rails
amazing
Also you should have a sandblasting cabinet for those rusted stuff🤙🏼
good luck
Cat eye gold 😊
My complements Dave on how well you maintain your machines - especially their appearance. I think your customers must appreciate the neat and clean look…and separate you from the other guys.
quite the score on that loader
👍👍👍👍thank you
Hey bud, would much rather subscribe to you then Andrew. You have a more down to earth attitude and warm smile. That's all I'm, going to say about that. Hope your channel does well.
Metal and wood drill bits are not set right for plastic - that why they crack and chip plastic so easy. I'd just use a hot spike or big soldering iron to melt holes myself - the mound of molten plastic actually reinforces the holes a bit.
Hi guys , the manifold can be welded using Ni Rod . Just make sure it's clean and grind any weak or sharp edges . Cheers 👍👍👍👍👍
Job well done Dave.The gauges need a clean.Are you going to do them when you have time? Good luck. Chris
JUST PAID FOR IT SELF. MISSED YOUR WHEELS ON PAINT, DAVE.
Nice machine and great job fixing her up. The tracks look like new, are they original?
Did you notice that the left track has two pins that are froze up.
