Caption: Replacing the C/222A in 1967 was the model C222F, now officially designated as a Wabco product. This is one of Goodman’s machines, seen in the sand at Waikanae in 1976. The heavy-duty front bumper is a Goodman modification, but the sun canopy is a standard factory option. A Michigan 180-wheel dozer waits to give assistance if required.
