My son and I farm at Corydon. Our u tube Chanel is hauswald farms. I’ve had knee replacement and have had lots of time to watch your U Tube channel. You amaze me on your ability to bring an older machine back to life that be of service to many people. I watch your auction videos and learn so much. We have a decent fleet of construction Equiptment that we use on our farm. Apparently you have Ben vey successful. Nice shop and the tools you use to accomplish the hardest task. Like your Pete. Along with your helpers.once again thanks for sharing your knowledge to me and many others
Hey Clinton,
Looks like you're going home with some nice equipment from this auction. That old D7F is a beast! Once you got it going, it just purred like a kitten. BY the time you go through it and make sure everything's OK, it will make someone a damn nice dozer. Looking forward to watching the next video.
Awesome buys! thank you for taking us along on your journey
Gotta love those 3306 engines! She sounds great! Late 60’s early 70’s cats were bulletproof.
You are absolutely right!
when looking at a item, pull the dipstick and pinch the oil, If its sticky, its laced with STP, then put a lighter to it, If the oil spits, there is antifreeze in it.
Your the master of stuff that ain’t running I’ve found out, and as Matt from diesel creek says, little either bunny never hurt anyone 😂
What a lovely wife you have. Saw her vidieo other day. Funny lady you got. Made me laugh.
what a juggling act..and behind every good Man, is his Wife..handles money and a sounding board of reason in this expensive business..plus good skilled workers..
It definitely takes the whole team. Thanks 😉
I really like your channel. I feel like you fix everything that you sell as if you were keeping it for yourself. That’s rare nowadays with sellers trying to save every penny they can because of the state of the economy. Keep the videos coming.
Good videos. Appreciate your time to share them with us
Nice to have some decent inventory compared to last year.
Dozer looks like a good find-cant wait for the follow up on it !!
I can't even imagine how stressful it is to go to these auctions and put up the type of money you have to for that much equipment and then have to ship it home. Sure you guys are great at what you do and will make money in the end but doesn't mean it's easy. Thanks for showing us a whole other side of the business. It was very interesting as always.
These shows are all staged, dude

Glad you enjoyed it
Thanks 😉
Nice Mrs and Mr Clinton, Glad everything worked for you, I enjoyed the auctions nice change but prefer the workshop videos, cant wait to see what you come up with Bridget should be fun.
Love it when you say not running and a twist of the wrench and good to go. 👍👍👍👍
I like seeing the old cats running, they are simple , no electronics!
Really enjoy seeing old equipment brought back. Awesome job❤❤❤❤❤
Wow (they gave me choice so I took all 4) deep pockets.
Lol
good looking pieces ya bought down there. Good god you must of spent a good hunk of change down there. bet that took some zeros outta the bank account. Absolutely love your channel. wish i;d gotten into this business years ago.
Gotta love auctioneers with phantom bidders running up the prices ..they’re only slightly less scummy than politicians! That Cat might be a cream puff .
Shill bidding should be illegal.

Great video Clint. Glad they all started up, visually, don't look that bad. Hopefully yall don't find any surprises!
Another great video.What a relief when the ole Cat D7 fired up.
The auction videos are my favorite. The old cat looks like it might be a good rig.
Thanks for sharing the time at the Auction.
You had a good haul this time around especially that dozer that fired right up.
A few nice ones this year. That D7, DP did say he saw it running.. hard to run them on empty tanks though. Looks a bit like a diamond not quite in the rough. I'm sure you've already teased LD18 about needing another Cat or two for his collection.. 🙂
Keep up the good work. Love watching the variety of machinery that u work on.
well done mate she sounds awesome
Looks like some nice stuff you bought buddy. Hope all is good. Stay safe.
That tractor brings back memories! Countless hours of stick time in that same machine as an Army engineer deployed using "seabee" equipment in the far Western pacific building roads in Micronesia in the early 80's. Hard work, long days but so worth it. Thanks for posting, take care and God bless.
Those old Cat dozers are so tough and reliable. They last a long time if they have been half way taken care of.
Awesome videos, glad you know all the “crooked” tricks at the auctions. It’s sad that thieves are all around us.
If you want to drop that D7 off in Oklahoma I will test it out and get those controls loosened up for you. By the way was that Kevin's excavator sitting next to it.
Where you at in Oklahoma?

Between you and DP and Chris, I'm now going to be looking at local auctions for equipment, mainly due to price of new I can't afford it or justify the purchase, plus, older things I can actually learn to work on and fix them. One thing with your channel has given a lot of knowledge of older machines, and for smaller operations like myself... older is smarter and cheaper to deal with. Thanks for the vids, and auction vids so I can learn what to be looking for. Appreciate it kind sir!
Luv that ole d7........was a bout to send RANDY downto hep yea...Turbo clean the SHOP
Welcome
Am I to infer you have family as office manager? My amateur analysis is this is critically right! Family is the most reliable and honest.
Difficult to tell when Clint has a rye smile - cos he kinda has one most of the time - but I did like the little aside about the "imaginary" bidder that the auctioneer thought he'd heard - and far more difficult with all those callers you have Stateside! Over here in Little Old England the flippin' hammer crew are "at it" all the time - uplifting bids, or slamming down just as the reserve is passed. I'm not as wide as Clint but at 6' 1" and wearing boots and a big hat - difficult to miss - yet I had to yell to one ring - "what have got to do to get you to notice me? Join the Magic Circle"? Next sale they gave me a wand.
Larry has an ex-Navy D7F but it’s configured a bit different. No throttle lever. It’s all in the decel pedal. The fuel primer pump sits vertically. His is a real peach. I think it has 1600 hours and original undercarriage. Manufactured in 1973. I was using it today, as a matter of fact. We use it to pull out the TD15B when it’s buried in the muck. Speaking of which, I need cutting edge and end bits for that machine. Guess I better call Clinton!
The D7G was a popular Cat dozer in it's time.
Love that video Clint and Wife .
Thanks for taking us to the auction. Brings back old memories of the 60’s when I worked for a company the conducted those auctions all over the country. They sold out to Riches brothers.
I’d hate to be writing that check!! If you need an overflow lot for one of the new cats, I’m your guy!
Wow, You and Mrs Clint made quite a haul! Congratulations!
Glad it started and moved. Looks like a good haul 👌
I knew that D7 would fire right up, I thinkin u did also!! Burnt paint on the exhaust man was a clue for me.
This is why I subscribe!
Thieves & Mice (Chris’s recent run in with the latter!) kill ‘em all!
Just started watching this. Hope it’s a good machine for you Clint!!!
Awesome video but we need an update on the elk statue!🤔 Really enjoy you guy's letting us tag along. I'm sure the stress level is non stop jumping from auction to auction but you fine folks handle it well. I remember being down there for fun with Dirt Perfect and it was some what stressful but we learned a lot.🤣🤣
Years ago, I went to an auction and the night before some kids went through and turned the keys on absolutely every piece of equipment at the sale. Did not start anything, just turned the key on to drain the batteries. The next day nothing would start.. Even the buyers at the sale had their pickups in there trying to jump start everything for the sale. Was a cluster fuk all day long.
Yea I hate that
Yep, need to get that Elk to keep wife happy.
Another great video thank you keep them coming please
Glad the D7 cranked and run. Be nice to see you hit a few outta the park where you had to double rebuild the dozer engine.
Problem is it got painted yellow ! Instead of “OD” green. (Over Dirt)
I ran the crap out of a D7E and a D7F over 50 years ago in the Army Engineers..Great machines !! Seemed like the older “E” model had more horsepower 🤷♂️
Good stuff. Reminds me of my grandfather he was a gritty old Water well driller always bought American made products. Didn't understand back then but I sure do now.
Hi from New Zealand, yes Clint is an amazing person, and the work. I love older Cats. You don't need all the computer crap to run a machine. The computer is just there to cause more problems.
Hell, with a pretty paint job like that it ought to run like brand new!😅
JUST LIKE NEW only used on sundays...LOVE IT that little roller is Awesome. Always take duct tape to any auction
Nice score Clint! Some really nice equipment going home.
I love them old dozers
Another great video Clint always enjoy all your videos 🇺🇸
Clint you sure went SHOPPING 🛍 DIDN'T YOU????.LOOKING FORWARD TO SEEING THEM BACK AT THE SHOP...THE
The FIRST thing my high school small-engines teacher told us to check for when diagnosing ANY kind of engine is "does it have fuel in it?". THEN you move on to air, spark, etc.
Can't believe no one checked to see if it had fuel before he got it.
Yep
Clint, you are headed to the house with some awesome equipment! Take care and safe travels. I’ll see y’all on the next one…
That was a pretty good haul you picked up this time.
Good update/post! Looks like you guys had fun!!
Always enjoy your videos. Take care
Looks like you did really well at this one!
😀👍🙏 Hi I just subscribed to this channel I like to see things like this to the comment I just read you bought another bulldozer and it don't run. May I say something politely and nicely you should always have an equipment checked out by someone that's an expert they'll tell you if there's really something wrong with it and not to buy it I'm being polite when I say this I done my bad mistakes in my life when I was going to buy some cuz I didn't know about it either I'm glad there's still people out there that are be honest with you and everything and tell you if it's not good or not thank you I'll watch one of your videos again very soon.
😀👍🙏🌟 thank you CNC equipment for responding back to me I'm glad you like my comment I just thought I mentioned that as a comment to check equipment out there before you buy it and you don't get stuck with something that don't run thank you.
Nothing better than an old diesel… so perfect
❤all the auction videos see the big old kitten 🐈⬛ is a beast can’t wait for more
That D7 was purring like a kitty cat!
Thank You !
It doesn’t help much but thank you for the videos and The effort. So much better than TV and other entertainment. Disable dude
This is one of my favorite channels on UA-cam!!! Always interested in seeing what you’re buying at auction!! Find me an old skid steer that needs work, and is cheap!!!
Lucky. Fresh paint on used equipment triggered old memories. "I'LL PAINT ANY CAR (or dozer) FOR $99.00." Earl Schieb. I was thinking if this was just lipstick on a pig.
Nice one clinton restock the yard 😎👍
On that compactor with the missing fuel cap. I would drain the fuel and inspect the fuel tank with borescope camera, to make sure no body did something.
Always like your videos bud & you always get a big thumbs up from me every time! I like the way you roll….go big or go home!!!
Thanks 👍
That dozer is a great runner It runs so good it didn't even won't the ether.
So excited that mrgunsandgear is with you! Hell yea!
I find your site fascinating. I have learned a lot but at my age it is information for curiosity's sake only. Non the less, I spend a lot of time watching your videos your knowledge is impressive and your cool, collected attitude . . . ? Well its really cool. Does your heart rate go up when you first try to start a dozer that is designated "Does not Run". For example the big D7. I was on the edge of my chair. The very best to you and your family (Mr Kevin included) from your Canadian friend.
Nice video …a bit short but if I want a longer one I can make it myself. 😊 Doctor let me go.
I’m hitting the ground a running 🏃♀️ … well more like I’m softly climbing down and walking softly and carrying a big stick. 😊
Oh Kevin is going to fall in love with 😍 one of those Cat 313F ‘s excavations. He a lot like me still just a kid at 700 years old. 😊
Clint you have got yourself some nice machines at this auction great job
What a sweet find that dozer is. A little tlc and she's ready to work.
When I use a red gas fuel can for diesel, I put a zip tie around the handle to show that it is diesel not gas.
Ethier lock. Been there. Goodwork through; sometimes you gotta. The "F" is my third favorite 7. Fine machine.
glad you lucked out on ol7 they never die if taken care of
I'll be in touch! Going to purchase a skid steer...
Nice auction for the business Clint! Bummer some jackwagon took the fuel cap. Hope all the equipment works out. Looking forward to seeing it in the shop as you go through it.
That D7 is purring, looks good, sounds good, is good, Nice buy Great Vid👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Nice jumpbox i got one myself works really good
Hey Clint !! YEP !! Looks like your gamble paid off this time !!! 🤔🙄🤥 Track looked kinda loose & hope it stays on till you get it back home ?? Hope the rest of the auctions go well ?? 🤔🤗👀👀👀👍👍👍👍👍
Let’s hope
Nice find on the D7, be interesting to see what you find on the 7 when you go thru it, I’m betting you won’t find much wrong with it, I think it was a sleeper, you got a good one sir, thanks for the update.
Clint deserves a break after that turd of an Army Dozer!
that elk will look great in front of your house.
🙌 yes :)
Other than those tracks being loose as my sister, Not bad,I have a old D-7 F non of my guys will run it but I use it every day just finish graded a DRA with it,
The look on these young guys faces when they see the old iron doing finish work is priceless
Thoroughly enjoyed it Clinton! Amazed at how much gear is for sale! Looks like you got some nice equipment. Hand would have been shaking writing that cheque! You shoulda got Kevin a jumping castle! 🇦🇺🍺🍺
Need tighten the tracks up or you’ll be having to put them back on 😂
