jeeper61 Posted October 3, 2025 Posted October 3, 2025 Some old footage of a yarder and a tracked dozer skidding, unloading into a float My guess is mid 60s by the GMC Carry-all https://www.facebook.com/watch?v=1717026955678146 3 Quote
Howard_P Posted October 4, 2025 Posted October 4, 2025 There's an early IH Scout in one scene that looks pretty new so likely 61-62. 1 Quote
mike newman Posted October 8, 2025 Author Posted October 8, 2025 ...1930 A - 5 IHC .....one of many IH trucks in Lethbridge, Alberta.... Mike 3 1 Quote
jeeper61 Posted November 1, 2025 Posted November 1, 2025 V series IH truck with a full load of logs V series trucks were made 1956-63 for the LV gas V-8s This truck has the V-549 with a 5-speed main and a 3-speed auxiliary 5 Quote
DWF Posted November 1, 2025 Posted November 1, 2025 I thought they would have made V series later than 63. I know they made R series later. I had a 67 R190 with an RD450 6 cylinder and 5 & 3 transmissions. It had originally been a ready mix truck, but the mixer was not on when I bought it. I used it in the woods with a Barko 80 loader for a little yarding, but mostly loadin semii trucks. That's a load on that V series, you'd know you had to be in the right gears on the road. Nice Iic!

DWF Yes I am off on the year. May 1968 both R and V were discontinued a replaced by the Fleetstar A Quote
td9bcf180 Posted November 1, 2025 Posted November 1, 2025 Nice picture @jeeper61 We owned this one and I drove it for a few years but much lighter and smaller loads than yours. 1968 Loadstar 1800 with V-392, 5 & 3 trannies. Barko 80 loader. It ended it's life sliding down an icy bush road hill and meeting up with a tree. And then caught fire. No one injured. 2 Quote
jeeper61 Posted November 1, 2025 Posted November 1, 2025 Nice Loadstar!! IMO the 392 SV V-8 was one of the best engines IH made 1 Quote

td9bcf180 Posted December 5, 2025 Posted December 5, 2025 @hector gemme where is this in Quebec? Great film of old TD dozers and busting new sod. 1 Quote
mike newman Posted December 5, 2025 Author Posted December 5, 2025 ...great film alright, Mike ..when 'tracks'' reigned supreme.....notice the veritable swamp where the two 14's were pulling that massive plough...running water everywhere.. ..the fully ''suited '' gentleman looked a mite incongruous, as he wandered around the ploughed area.....and of course the French dialogue was way over my head..... Thanks for that !! Mike 1 Quote
td9bcf180 Posted December 5, 2025 Posted December 5, 2025 Yes, lots of track power, Mike. My French is also not great but I think it might be in the Abitibi region of Quebec. Hopefully Hector or some of our Quebec chums will verify the location. -24 C (-11 fahrenheit) here this morning and 5 inches snow on the ground. +24 and sunny in your neck of the woods @mike newman?

hector gemme Posted December 5, 2025 Posted December 5, 2025 Am not sure but should be in ABITIBI and I remember in 1950 some INTERNATIONAL was in my area for plowing ,digging for 3 to 4 mounth each year and these dozer was caming from QUEBEC 2 1 Quote

jeeper61 Posted December 11, 2025 Posted December 11, 2025 This guy is almost as good as Mr Newman Mike did you ever run any old cable stuff? https://www.facebook.com/reel/1386642599494641 5 Quote
Rawleigh99 Posted December 12, 2025 Posted December 12, 2025 It's kind of like casting for fish. It takes coordination. Another way to do it is to put a cat or big dump truck on the far side with a pulley attached to it. If you're drag line has the extra drum you can put that cable through the pulley and use it to pull the bucket across the canal before you pull it back. @Buddy 1 Quote
