Pettibone 4A19

[ETD66SS]

Last year I bought my first Pettibone machine, it's an Extendo 88 all terrain forklift:

It's a really cool machine an built like a tank, I'd like to restore it someday.

It got me looking on craigslist for other old Pettibone equipment.

I came across a Pettibone 4A19 4WD TLB on craigslist last week, it has already sold. I can find nothing on the internet concerning this machine, and am wondering if anyone here has one? I'd love to get more information, and of course pictures. It looks like a fun machine to own someday.

His Pettibone would be a Grandfather to my little Compact Telehandler.

All right, Faxman, tell the story of the yellow dump vehicle. Confession is good for the soul.

Bought it on eBay in 2009 to use with the V518 removing silt from the pond where we lived back then.. It is an old Benford/Terex 6 Ton Dumper. I call it my 4WD wheelbarrow.:thumbsup:

This is the day we got it. It was delivered on a semi truck flatbed trailer. I used the V518 and pushed the red "portable loading dock" close to the back of his trailer and he backed it onto mine. I moved it from the side of the road into our driveway, lowered the ramps and drove it off.

Still use it here where we live now. It holds 4.5 cubic yards of dirt.

And a lot of brush. :thumbsup:
