Very, very nice! Nothing beats articulation and being able to see your bucket.

Do those things have a torque converter?

FORD was a name that meant something. I am still trying to figure out what or who a New Holland is.

That's a nice loader, do you know any history on it as to where it came from or what it was used for? Doesn't look like it was used much at all to be a 1980.

I know some this history.. before Me this machine has work in scrapyard maybe least 15 - 20 years.. not know what kind work it do before that but I can guess it was loading gravel in summer times..
