  1. Nice images of some great antique machinery. I wonder if there's any life left in that old diesel engine?

    1. That old GM diesel has just been rebuild, but has yet to be fired up. Think it will last another 70 years at least.

    1. At this point these have become big boy toys. The diesel engine runs an antique crane and the wheels are the controls of a horse drawn road grader.

    1. You are right about the diesel motor. The wheels are the controls of a horse drawn road grader which still works fine.
