Nice pic Paul :thumbs_up:
Here's a pic of a Cat 345C that I took a few days back now but haven't had the chance to post yet.
This machine is being used on the same site as the Cat 972 wheel loader that I posted pics of last week. Thanks John345me.

Looks like the guy on that 345 youve posted jeremy isnt very good! Muck over the track and on to the accsess step on the side and just look at the amount of muck on the panel on the cab side! I hate to think what the counterweight looks like!

Not the best thing to do with what would be a very expensive mistake if anything goes wrong! If i had machines like that theres no way in gods earth id ever let my son or daughter anywhere near them if they made them look like that!
