Hello all. My name is Alan Hynes, aka alan627b, and also "Flip" or Flipper" Check the avatar, you'll figure out why!
I am an 46 year old operator in Omaha, Nebraska, USA, I work for Negus And Sons, a heavy highway (dirt) contractor here. Union Local 571.
Usually I'm found in the seat of the Cat 627B twin engine scraper. I've been an equipment nut since I was 10 years old, now I get paid to run them!
I'm also an avid fan of models, I have about 300 models of plant equipment. In addition, my other interests include cars, primarily those made by the Chrysler corporation.
I own a 69 Valiant 100, with a 340 4 speed. My street/drag car under construction.
99 Dodge dakota R/T with the 360 engine.
93 D350 1 ton Dually with the 5.9 Cummins and Getrag 5 speed
1954 Cat D2 with the 2A angle dozer, SN 5U13518
1947 Cat DW10 tracotor, SN 1V276
1948 LaCrosse tilt deck trailer
Most of them projects in one stage or other!
I'll be posting lots of pictures, and I'm really enjoying the forum so far.
Cheers,
Alan
