The Caterpillar D5

 

One of the rarest antique tractors you will find, this vintage Caterpillar D5 from 1939 is one of only 46 that were built.

It was a cross between the D4 chassis and the 6-cylinder D6 45 horsepower engine.

The D5 was reintroduced in 1967.

Today’s Cat® D5 succeeds the renowned D6N with superior performance, a fully automatic transmission and the broadest choice of technology features to help you get the most from your dozer. What a journey!
