Caterpillar D9

Year: 1956
Power: 286 PS
Capacity: 24000 ccm
Engine: 6 cyl

At the introduction in 1954 the Cat D9 was the biggest bulldozer worldwide that was built up to that time.

One year later it was performing on construction sites all over the world.

The gigantic vehicle has a weight of 25 tons and is powered by a Cat D 353 turbine diesel engine.

On offer were two versions, model 18A with direct drive, and model 19A with torque converter.

In spite of the age of nearly 50 years this bulldozer is still completely fit for use and in a position to level as good as anything getting in the way.
