It is time to get the third machine that we are rescuing from the old farm! I really want to get this thing back to the Salvage Cave and work on it there, so let's bring it on home! This machine is a Cat No 12 Motor Grader that was built in 1965. It has been parked in the same spot for a little over 10 years. It quit working one day while the family was using it, and they never got it up and running again. I plan to do some work on it to get it up and running once it's back to my shop. This machine should be a LOT of fun! ~ Thanks as always for watching and following along with all my crazy adventures here on Salvage Workshop, I TRULY appreciate it! Please enjoy!
