I wish!!
bough a new Industrial Ford 3400 after this job, restored the backhoe & loader and installed it on the new (yellow) Ford. Painted the hoe and loader to match.

Then traded up to a 4500 flat deck rig and then a 6500 TLB combo after that.
Sold it in '82 when construction & the economy went to pot around here. Bought a 359 Peterbilt and a flatbed and spent the next 30 years on the road.
Retired in 2012.

Times have changed. The job would still have one operator, but at least three white hats observing and a few other guys poking at stuff with a shovel when they’re not leaning on it.
Also H&R guys plus a few back office guys out on a junket
Plus all the shoring on the ditch

Check the badge on the front of the Tractor, it should tell you the series it belongs to, as the picture below shows this one belongs to the 600 series. It is actually a 640. The 4 means 4 speed. Your tractor looks from the side like a 600 series ?

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
