2022 CONVENTION, NATIONAL CONSTRUCTION EQUIPMENT MUSEUM, BOWLING GREEN, OHIO

Please, share your images of the 2022 International Convention and Old Equipment Exposition which was held at the National Construction Equipment Museum in Bowling Green, Ohio.

Please be advised: If you want your images to appear in a specific order, upload the images individually, rather than in a batch, and upload the last image in the sequence first. If you upload more than one image at once, there is no way of controlling the order in which they will appear in the gallery.

 

Also, you can add captions to your photos, but there is a 200 character limit, including spaces, to their length.

  • This drone view shows the grounds from the Museum building west. The area at right center, beyond the pond and treeline, was recently surfaced with donated grindings.
  • The Museum’s Allis-Chalmers 260 motor scraper arrived just in time for the show. The Kon-Tork logo for the torque-proportioning differential dates it to the 1960s.
  • Former Marine Jim Carter went all in for the show, demonstrating his 1972 Case M4150 military loader with Drott bucket, in full uniform! Thanks for your service, Jim, and to all of our veterans!
  • Robert Dahs’ 1955 Seaman-Gunnison Duopactor can compact using either the smooth drum as shown here, or the row of smooth pneumatic tires, or both. It can also double as a dump truck!
  • Koehring, Lorain and Lima produced excavators that in essence put a front-end loader’s operating principles on a turntable. This is Lorain’s TL25 telescopic-boom Scoop Shovel, built in 1956.
  • Cleveland Trencher Company is famous for its wheel trenchers. Much less known is the CT-4 utility trencher, designed to compete with far more numerous machines from Davis, Ditch-Witch and Vermeer.
  • This 1947 Detroit Tractor Corporation 44-16 compact wheel loader, owned by the Laborie Family, is pulling Doug Linner’s 1893 Lassig pull grader.
  • Our shows draw various vintage military vehicles, including this restored 1918 Holt 5-Ton Armored crawler tractor shown by Howard Bowers.
  • This is what the grounds looked like Thursday morning. Much work was done to make the place ready for Friday morning!
  • Museum volunteer Brent Myers could be seen tooling about the grounds in his 1957 BMW Isetta 300. As suggested by the handle, the front is the door!
  • You there, online! What will you bid? Auctioneer Jason Whalen graciously donated his services
  • Rain early Sunday morning made more cleanup necessary. Ron Cannizzo mans the Museum’s 1935 Diesel
  • So why do we do all this? The delight on this boy’s face tells the story as owner J. R. Laborie gives him a ride on his 1970 Link-Belt HC-200 Hydrascoop. Note if you will the Link-Belt red sweatshirt!
  • Museum Volunteer Charlie Scherer and the Museum’s 1964 Cat 12-E motor grader shift muck off the working area Thursday afternoon.
  • The drone zeroes in on the new exhibit area, with the crusher operation in the center. Excluding cars, trucks, trailers and golf carts, all but four of these machines belong to the Museum.
  • This Allis-Chalmers HD6's right crawler left its sprocket and idler. In a scene from older days, supervisorial staff drove out to the failure in a project Jeep, in this case Dean Wack’s 1946 model.
