Caterpillar Sixty Crawler at Work! 🔥

Here’s the legendary Caterpillar Sixty back in the field, doing what it was built for. No electronics, no fancy buttons—just raw diesel power and engineering from a different era.

Looks like a late 40s early 50s D2. Squatch253 on YT has rebuilt and painstakingly restored a couple of them, and a few Minneapolis-Moline one-of-one in the world prototype tractors. He's got a MM prototype crawler that uses a D2 undercarriage for the crawler bits! If you like old iron, check him out! VERY sfw channel.
