Wasted Day, drove 3 hrs to look at a dozer today, thought I was buying it until I found a leak in the front...then drove it...OOPS! It wasn't want I thought.
However, the guy had a Cat D3B I got the Serial number and I was told I could go and look it up on the web...I CANT FIND IT. Does anyone know how to tell year etc from serial number? 45v45781
