That sure is an interesting setup. Probably just the size of the scraper cab on it but the tractor looks a little small for a 10. I doubt that would have been cheap to put together. Rowan.

HUMMMMMM !!!!!! Pretty interesting concept !!! Cat might rethink their scrapers up to this config, even McAnninch could find this set up even more cost wise and operator friendly for their jobs...
One thing though, when the time comes to move these beasts I'm sure there is more work to do on 'em to split them in half, think they should make a kind of dolly to support the scraper part so it can be loaded easier on lowboys, as far as differences from a regular pan scraper use like McAnninch do, I think the results are still the same, pretty efficient, still one man operation machine, lots of traction and power, a winning combo for sure !!!!
I might try and make one for my collection, did a few pan scrapers a couple years back for me and my fellow collectors around here, should be a great addition to any collectors...

looks like Buster Peterson is still creating 
Why is "phonetically" spelt with a "ph"? ... It's better to be silent and thought a fool, then to speak up and remove all doubt The complex of Newgrange was originally built between c. 3100 and 2900 BC,[2] meaning that it's aproximately 5,000 years old. According to Carbon-14 dates,[3] it is more than 500 years older than the Great Pyramid of Giza in Egypt, and predates Stonehenge by about 1,000 years.
