Some old TD-14 pics

Converting some old slides to jpeg's and came across these. My father on his TD-14 in the early 60's. All taken in north central BC. Imagine crossing a creek in a dozer with a small child onboard today. It would be a race between Social Services and Environment to see who arrested you first.

    & a very cool old truck! Of all the IH trucks those were best looking.

    Nice looking machine and truck. Is that you and your dad in the dozer? You must have some great memories. Can't imagine working outdoors in scenery like that, I'm mostly a desk jockey.....

    Not sure if its me or my brother but i spent a lot of time as a kid riding on jump seats and hydraulic tanks, perched on fenders etc. As for the scenery, after a while its just another damn mountain to get a road over or another damn creek to cross. Still nice country to work in though.
