Salvage Workshop's video: Saving an OLD Wheel Loader Parked for UNKNOWN Reasons Day 1 1965 Allis Chalmers 645 Loader

Will this OLD Loader Start, even TURN over, or is it complete JUNK! I don't know... Let's find out together! So we're finally onto the second of three machines that we are rescuing from the old farm! Today's flavor is Articulated Wheel Loader, and it comes in the Butterscotch variety! This old loader is an Allis Chalmers 645 Wheel Loader with an Allis Chalmers 3500 turbo charged 6 cylinder diesel engine.This machine is probably from the 60's or 70's from what I can tell, but I do not know when it was built at this time. That's about the extent of what I know about the machine, so let's dive right in and see what it's going to take to get this old beast back up and running once again! Join me on this journey as we work together to figure out what it's going to take to get this machine back up and running once again! This will be a daily account of the process showing a bit more of what is takes to properly bring this old beast back to life and make it usable once again! This machine should be a LOT of fun! ~ Thanks as always for watching and following along with all my crazy adventures here on Salvage Workshop, I TRULY appreciate it! Please enjoy!
