Cat 641 scraper

Post #1 by Dah » Mon Jul 13, 2015 11:10 pm

Having a night reading old posts!

I noticed a picture of a 641 scraper and didn't know they existed!

Were many of them about? Are the much bigger than the 631's?

The. Single engine version of a 657 is a 651.
CA Blackwell used to run some 641's, they are the only ones I came across on my travels.

Agreed Russ - the Single engine version of a 657 is a 651. The 641 is smaller.

The 641 has same front end as a 657 and a 651, just a smaller box than the 651, same HP.

641 ceased production in 1981.
