The water pump for Alester finally came in, so let's get that tossed in and put the old dozer right back to work!

Today we're going to remove a few trees that are in the way and are going to cause problems in the future! The Cows LOVED that!

This is my 1970's Caterpillar D3 LGP Bulldozer named "Alester"... It has a 6 way blade, wide tracks, and is powered by a Caterpillar 3204 diesel engine. The machine is in fairly good shape considering it's lack of care over the last decade and a half, but it does have some major issues that we're working through one step at a time!
