big thanks to Neil and Norm for coming out... I'm happy we have some understanding on how to proceed. I definitely have enough 5 gal pails to catch coolant. The question for removing the pony becomes timeline... we have a lot going on and I'm not sure when we'll be able to get to it, but I'm hopeful it will happen this warm season. Or I'm thinking someone may get antsy waiting for us to get to it and come help =p

Thanks again to everyone here and especially Norm and Neil for coming out!

Will keep everyone posted on progress, whenever some happens

so, the gentleman that actually moved the dozer into its current location years ago is interested in it, and will be coming up to check it out... i told him where we left off

I should have all the parts for the poney D8

Ok so he knows the pony needs repairs before it (the pony) can be used?

I did let him know. He said he's very familiar with the machine. I'll keep you guys updated on what transpires... not going to do anything without checking with ya'll first.
