That's a nice machine and good in snow with the narrow tires. They also made a 330 and 340D. Can't find any specs on them, but it would be a great machine.
JD produced them for a short time in the early 80's.

A 340D is the same basic machine as a 440C less the blade and they came standard with the 16.9x30 tires insted of the 18.4x26 or 23.1x26 with the 440's
 
The FMC and now the LMC are about the ultimate in ground based log moving . They are the only skidder that is generally useable in Southeast . LMC has some good prices on refurbished ones also ........ I have seen them used improperly tho by a pig headed logger who had more money than brains .. Course using FMC s the wrong way got rid of the extra money real quick ........

the wagners were built from 1955 to around 1960.

this one was given to me for scrap when a logging supply store closed down..

It was a long way from running and I cut it up for scrap.

it had 2 steering wheels and was made to run both directions.

blade on rear was more for tailhold- deadman, for winching

cummins 200hp 6 cylinder automatic trans.
