John Deere and Michigan
Heres a JD loader with a rake on a site in Florida. With the sand down there near the coast the wheel loaders with rake are more common than dozers.
And heres a sad old Michigan rigid frame with part of a ripper set up on back.

Truck mounted Gradall and an old IHC backhoe
Going through my old pictures I found a picture of an old truck mounted Gradall on an euipment dealers lot in Marianna Florida.
THe IHC backhoe is 330 IH with a Pippin digger I think, i cant remember. It had a backfill blade and a stainless steel bucket. This was at Bulls Hit Farms display.

Re: Some Historic Equipment.
