old Liebherr/Leibherr excavators in the UK /before 1980

Post #1 by UlrichPoeschl » Tue Oct 27, 2009 9:23 pm

Hello all,

OK I will start this topic and send some fotos, hopefully a lot of old machines will appear here. Please only fotos of machines produced before 1980 (Liebherr 1-series and older)

Ulrich

First foto shows an R 750 in front of an Liebherr sales station in the UK.

Next machine is an RT 1000 (from ca. 1966)....I think it was working in the UK....because it is loading a Foden dumper.

On the foto you can see in the left background another working Liebherr...this is an 750 machine

Also I am searching for an RT 1000 in real...as this is a very rare machine (only 100 were produced)...maybe someone can remember a location of such an excavator
