It was a fully functioning motor grader that had been used by the US in the Pacfic during WW2. How and where he got it I do not know but we had it a few years. We had 5 acres of land and it was usually so full there was no place to park the rare working vehicle that showed up.
The only time I saw the dump truck (a 52 or 53 if I recall) work was once when he wanted to move the garage. Backed the truck in, lifted the box, picked up the garage and drove away.
