1945 Lindeman restoration -3

Post by Ray » Fri Nov 16, 2012 10:06 am

THANK YOU all for the nice comments that were made during this project.
I have enjoyed sharing it with you.

The crawler is all put back together so I pulled her out and took a bunch of photos.
The decals are not on yet and I don't plan on doing that until the spring.
That way the paint is fully cured and the weather is warmer for the decals to set.

Lindeman never made a loader for there crawlers and I have never seen another Lindeman that has a loader adapted to it.

Just noticed, are those tracks on backwards or did the Lindemans have the grouser on the trailing side of the pads?
