I figured it was something like that. One of the very few US made excavators with the cab on the left.

I may have to take a new photo, I likely can't find the old one. Friends have a MEAD MIGHTY MOUSE dozer. I think 1950? era. It has a small Wisconsin engine.

I can't read the logo, is it American Road Maintainer? I feel the tractor is IH Farmall, I'll look into that.
These machines have fascinated me since my first. In the 1940s, mostly late 1940s a number of new machines based on older machines blossomed. There was a flood of machines utilizing military surplus components. ARM might have been earlier than World War II.

I can't speak with authority, I believe companies like American Road Machine used a variety of farm tractors to adapt. It seems ineficient to build adaptaptations from several tractors with different specs. I've seen ARM road maintainers from IH Farmall M, Mineapolis Moline, Ford 8N, and a few others.
The Austin Western Badger was a 3/4 swing cable shovel powered by an IH F30.
