Is your truck Caribbean turquoise? Color code B?

You guys should try an airless paint gun . they really get it on with little waste . great on machinery !!!

Evening to you both, not only have you painted the panels but also had fun in doing so!! Looking good. The Cleaner is now, the gasket maker, painter and a soldier to the 1938 CAT cause as are you. Great stuff. Nice outlook of your property. Cheers✌✌

Komatsu is older than cat,,,,who's the clone now...

Actually if anything cat is a clone of komatsu,,,Being that komatsu is around longer than cat,,,,,,Catapiller was founded in 1925,,,,,Komatsu was founded in 1921,,,Cat is the biggest construction machine manufacturer in the world,,,,But in the country with the biggest economy on earth,,,,That being china ,,,,,,komatsu is king,,,,Also the third largest economy on earth ,,,,India,,,,,,komatsu is king,,,And in Japan,,,

Color is off to my eye. can't go wrong with Rustoleum Old Cat Yellow.

Kummagutsa paint is OK

If you use CAT brand paint you don't need to prime and all you need is a little enamel thinner. You would get better results if you used a 2 or 3 gallon paint pot.

You should be ashamed, it's a sin to put that pant on a CAT

I learned of Olsons Gaskets from the guys over at @ScrappyIndustries as a source for a D4600 head gasket that they couldn't find elsewhere.

Noice!

Looks great guys thanks for sharing can’t wait to see you running it around

"How dare you!" ha ha ha

Another good video, 😂🎉

Haha looked like another (fake) moonlanding😂😂 restoring a Caterpillar, a small step for man, a big step for mankind.😂

Leave that poor kittipillar alone!

Sacrilege! 😂

Great video

Lol

You're lucky to survive. Taking risks like that could have resulted in another world ending year 2000!

That paint actually looks amazing. Glad you're both "safe" and there wasn't an adverse reaction😊

Lol how dare you😂😂😂😂 good video. You have a fantastic sense of humor!!

You going to get a lot of comments now I love you with girls if you use a break you can fix a lot of people's mistakes

Hell no you said Helicoil

Another very interesting and informative video I have a 1949 D4 I am learning a lot about the D4 that I never Knew. Keep up the good work.

Nice job, keep it up, you guys will make it

Thanks!

This truck engine was built by International/Ford but the design was made by an "O" ring company... So be prepared to change them all!!!

Great episode#111 Just love the way it is all coming together. The engineering of the fan belt adjust is cool. What a great achievement for you both. See you on the next one. Thanks for sharing. God Bless you both.

i stood on Pikes Peak Colorado 1967 looking east and was amazed at the pool table flat landscape from north to south , and looking forward to the Cat start up

Shake hand with danger notification lol. Now I know why in some of your videos , I heard that but it wasn't in spots that you usually use that. 🤔 Explains a lot lol 😅

We really like where you are too!!

You guys are doing a great job! After all you have done, seeing it together is going to very rewarding. Can’t wait until we see it running and moving.

You would be better off to use Cat red rubber sealer than the blue stuff

That rad cap sure is a heavy duty unit. Nice job on the gasket!

Hello big Stripes!

It's a great milestone when your project starts coming together like that. Just think how good the first start will be!

Piece after piece, soon there will be a complete machine.

D4 is probably the hardest to work on

The belt and radiator make this engine look alive!

Amazing job ,,keep it going lads,,,,,,,,,,,Dia Dhuit,,,,,,,That's hello in Irish,,,,,

Can't find the right bolts? On my current project I have brought zip lock bags to put the bolts in on disassembly and label where the come from with marker pen. Hopefully this will mean the right bolts for each component will all be easily found on reassembly.

Great job guys it’s getting closer thanks for sharing

Got momentum. Keep it up!👍👍👍👍👍

You Guys are really getting some momentum on the old Girl now and your emotions are well justified! I think of that old saying “You come along way Baby “ 😀🇨🇦

She’s lookin real good brother! And by the way, any time you need to stop and shed a tear, you do it. I’m happy to shed one with you. Peace. ❤️… Oh, it’s gonna purr like old Big Stripes when the time comes!

Thank you for sharing your experiences with us!

I can’t imagine the grief you must feel. I’ve spent time worrying about my own grown children and even imagining losing one of them is really hard. I wish you peace and that you can find a way to honour your boy in many ways as the years pass. He would be really happy to know you carry his memory with you.

I’ve got an engine identical to that one. The grease cups only provide lubrication to the babbitt bearings on the crankshaft and connecting rod. The gears and sliding or rotating parts need to be oiled separately. The block would usually crack when somebody forgot to drain the water, having fully intended on running the engine again before it froze but then got sidetracked doing other things and bingo…it was frozen when they got back to it. Rainwater would accumulate in the hopper and do the same thing if the engine was left outside and not covered. The 3 hp wouldn’t power a threshing machine but was usually used to turn a Pumpjack on a water well or to run a line shaft in a small farm shop or a small buzz-saw and other low horsepower applications. I’ve got a photo of my grandfather and his two brothers using a buzz-saw with two McCormick Deering engines driving it at the same time. The bigger engines were so cottonpicking heavy that many people went with two smaller ones instead. I’ve got a 6 hp McCormick and it’s a beast. My 6 hp Witte is a heavy one too but not like the McCormick. Yours will be a good engine once you get it to run. One more suggestion if you have a crank for this engine. Pound a nail in a wall and hang it up there for display only. I learned that the hard way when the crank gets pushed off as the engine fires. I’d been really cranking hard and the swivel handle allowed the opposite end of the crank to swing around and get between the spokes of the flywheel. The crank handle broke instantly but many bad things could have happened instead. My hand didn’t end up there, I didn’t get the crank in the teeth, things like that. My crank is now brazed and hanging on display.

The right stuff! Enjoyed much.:0
