Got the old girl home a bit ago. LaPlant blade is off, working on the main frame work for the pistons. Motor is going to have to come out eventually, being stuck. Injectors out and Marvel Mystery oil in. Couple new photos. Also wondering what the add on ring type brackets are on the end of the track frames. Could be used for all sorts of things I guess. Never seen them before.

That is an ex military machine. Those tie down/lift eyes are typical of military units. LaPlant Choate blade arrangement.

Updated solid front idlers. I'd take a link out of those rails, if the bushings are halfway decent.
