In my area here in NE Pa.probably half of them had blades but without blades they were used for log skidding back when timbering was big for mining logs & saw timber too but the mining is gone right here so most all later tractors have blades on them esp. for grading purposes around building projects & the like.Bob Cats & other brand rubber tired machines have taken over smaller jobs now too & some have tracks on them now to get around better.

thanks for the advices! the engine is stuck to so i will be carefull then and will look at the undercariage aswell, what prices do they ask in the U.K. ??for one with a blade? i could buy it for 4000 euros
