My Michigan 125B

This is my 1974 Michigan 125B tractor shovel. It has been restored like new with OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) parts. Restoration costs: $10,000 USD.

Were all the parts of the Michigan in a 40' container? (Tires, cab and shovel) hmm

What engine? Cummins or Detroit Diesel

Do you work with the Michigan?

Best regards

Hi Bruno,

All parts were in the same 45' container i.e. bucket (in front of body), wheels, cabin, etc...
The engine is Detroit Diesel 6V-71N65, it's been revised, and painted as well with the same original color from Clark Equipment Co.
I'm not into the construction equipment business but I love Michigans more than anything since I was a kid, so my dream is to purchase and restore few of them like new. smile

Hello Roland,

Where have you found the Michigan. In which country.

Have you a new project?

Best regards

I bought the Michigan 125B from Montréal, Canada, and shipped it via ocean freight to Beirut, Lebanon, where restoration occurred. Currently, I'm waiting for an old friend to sell to me his Michigan 55. He's still attached to it and considers it to be the start of his career at the asphalt plant.

Remember that Clark Equipment Co. ruled back in those good old days.
