Trying to identify and see a picture of a trackloader I used to drive back in 1957 when I worked for a wrecking company. I believe it was an Allis Chalmers. The lifting arms between the bucket and the tractor were all one piece. The arms mounted high on the crawler toward the rear end. The driver actually sat down between the lift arms. I remember this because one time I was loading broken concrete onto a dump truck when the hydraulic line to the cylinder broke and I got sprayed with hot hydraulic oil. A real bear trying to climb out from between those arms when everything was covered with slippery hydraulic fluid. There was one lift cylinder under each arm. Never did know the actual age of the unit. Any help would be appreciated. I was 19 at the time.
