Hey Guys , Just got back from a two week job up on the Vermont/Canada border and sitting at the shop is a new Definitely Odd Ball 4x4 Project that I have never heard of and so far can't find any info on . The owner says it is a Techoe or Tech Hoe ? sort of like the old Dyna-Hoes but also has the look of an old Hough or Michigan of the late 60's or early 70's . It is the size of a Cat 922 Loader and has the same straight frame four wheel steering design it has a Detroit Diesel in it and has a 12 Foot Case Backhoe on it like from a 580 Case from the late 60's or early 70's . The strangest part is the driveline , it has NAPCO ( from the original Chevy and GMC Truck 4x4 conversions ) axles which are 2 1/2 Ton GMC Military just like on the Roadless conversions but with NAPCO built Planetary hubs . Owner has no books or Manuals and I have not been able to locate any info on the web so far . Anybody ever seen anything like this ? Thanks Tony Jacobs
