@mog5858 I am just trying to find info on it, I am sure its one of the first 225's there was, it has the controls beside you, not in front, and hydraulic tank beside operators seat, and fuel cap inside cab toward back. Just wondering

@greatcutter that's vag what you looking for?

that is the most piddly ass skidder i have ever seen..... nice job on the restoration! and i know the story lol whatever works!

[mog5858]

@TheDjay35 yepper all day long when i like. it was more the restoring then having a skidder. i mostly just use it for the blade, but it's small and very eazy to move with my 3/4 ton and a good trailer. no need to have a big rig and all that jazz pus it's pay for.

what u pull out of the woods with that? twigs.

very nice job on the lil fella, we got a 205 with the ford diesel in it, noisy but runs really nice..

[mog5858]

@copperheadmarine yes and no the frist small ones had fords or perkins but they did not make too meany and lost have not srevied. when they got bout out that when they when to bigger skidder and the DD for more power. i think i no expert on all this.

[copperheadmarine]

Is the ford engine rare? Most TJ's I saw were 3 or 4 53 Serise Detroit Diesels?
