This my friends is the machine that was to replace the 370C and was to be renamed the 370D of course. This machine is one of the prototypes that were developed and is very very rare.
Whenever IBH owned Hymac they put an intensive development programe together and teamed Hymac up with Hanomag and another french manufacturer that was under the IBH rule (I think it was Pingon - It will come to mind later - bit hungover
) Anyway just prior to launch of the 370D IBH went bankrupt and all the developed machines were scrapped - but because there was so much time and money ploughed into the new backhoe Loader development It was launched instead as the Hanomag HD60. It was a good replacement for the 370C and it addressed a lot of the failings of the old machine except in my opinion if the front loader arm design that are Hanomag derived.
The pictues of the yellow machine further up the thread (for sale in Poland last year) show a machine that incorporates a lot of competitors machine design features at the time - Massey ferguson slew - JCB Cab - Ford Boom etc.
I have an official Hymac 370D scale model that was produced for Hymac in 1:16th scale or bigger so I will try and dig the photos out of that - It's identical to the red coloured machine featured in this thread on the colour scheme is more traditional Hymac.
Whereabouts is this machine located???

Bit of a mystery that one IBH,
