Caterpillar 977 Specs
is an American-built machine
purchased new in 1983.
It's powered by a turbocharged 190hp Cat 3306 diesel engine

It runs and operates well,

-- is still in good condition.
The 977L weighs 47,641 pounds,
and measures 18.7'x8.5'x11' (LxWxH).
This '83 has 30+ years on it,

it's also as ready and able to work as you are.
So you don't have to put this machine out to pasture,
unless your pasture needs some serious digging.
Caterpillar History
to the Trackson company, which started out as a builder of tracked attachments
for Fordson and Caterpillar tractors.
By 1938, Trackson was shipping
a "Trackson Shovel option" for the Cat 30 series,
which would later be adapted to several D series tractors,
such as the D2, D4, D6 and D7.
Caterpillar purchased Trackson in 1951,
but the Traxcavator name stuck,
to the point where tracked excavators
tend to be called Traxcavators whether or not
they had anything to do with Trackson design and manufacture.
