This is the official channel of the Antique Caterpillar Machinery Owner's Club, an International organization. We focus on, and celebrate the storied history of Caterpillar and the many machines that have built the world.
Our channel highlights machines from the earliest Holt and Best track-type tractors, equipment from the start of Caterpillar in 1925, up to units built in the mid-1960's. We like them all, ag tractors, construction equipment, graders, loaders, generator sets, scrapers, you name it, if it is Caterpillar we're in.

I would give anything to operate one just one more time. I was 18 when I climbed on one the first time……the operator had to take a pee break and let me run a load. I ran the old dozer pulling the sheepsfoot but I longed to run the pans. I now in my fading years yearn to run a load.
I ran a 7E in the Army. Tilt blade and power shift. Finally got all the water out of it and good fuel and filters and it'd snort. Ran F's after that but missed the old E. That old boy has been on that tractor more than once. Thanks
Sure does. I ran 4's and 6's with a straight drive a lot. Oil master clutches. Smooth has to be smooth and I also found out why an old operator was always blading. One less bump feels a lot better.@@acmocD2
