Very interesting machine . It looks like the operators cab is on hydraulic arms to give the operator a better perspective on the demolition . I see a lot of these long reach machines around here but they get used for excavating old fuel tanks at petrol stations .

 I also really like your heavy hauling tractor trailer you made to move it around .

I made one of these some time ago, but I must say your's is a big improvement over my own attempt at this particular peice of equipment. I started to dismantle mine a while ago to carry out some improvements, but I never got back round to re-building it. Your work has inspired me to have a go at it again :wow: !

Wow, a cool verhicle.

I especially like the color (not always that usual yellow, and here in Germany such green also can be found quite often) and I like the cover you created for the truck; it's from the old 3233 police staff transportation truck, right?

No, it´s from the Ralley Truck lacquered and plastered.

Wow! That is a great looking piece of machinery, very impressive. I like the extra wheels on the trailer.  8-)

I've seen some of your customs on other forums, and would just like to say you have made some truly amazing trucks. Great job.  :wow:

Rasputin,

What would be the benefit of a rig with that kind of reach in pulling old fuel tanks?

Gepetto

When the tanks reach their expiration date the stations need to replace them . The long reach excavators work out by being able to have a depth that most machines would not have , this allows the machine to say out of the excavated hole. The machines do not have a large weight capacity but they have the reach and depth and the tanks are not that heavy

Thanks for the info, I did not realize the tanks were buried so deep, up here a standard rig is usually sufficient.

it is usually that they are not deep but there are so many of them, in one station you could have 3 for Gasoline ( 87, 89, 91 octane ) and 2 for diesel ( off road & on road ) and one for kerosene all in a small 1/2 acre lot and then most of the room is taken up by the giant store to sell sugar and salt to the patrons . The machine needs to have an incredible reach out not down .

For this excellent custom in our town it would be sitting idle for we do not have vary many buildings of that size that need demolition. I really like the reinforced operators cab on hydraulics, concrete hammer and i am not too sure what the other attachments are but the machine and the Lowboy or transport rig look great
