On TD-6 is there a difference in value with different serial numbers? I came across a shedded one in good shape, and I am going to try and get it running. Thanks. Dave

For collection as an antique, there is probably no difference in value. If for actual use, the later models with the 6 cylinder engine would probably be worth a little more.

I don't think there is a lot of difference in the value on these. Not a huge demand consistantly so you see them sell high here and there followed shortly by a herd of them going for a lot less. Only thing I will tell you is that if the machine starts on gas and then switches to diesel you need to learn how to start and shut down this machine prior to playing with it. You should also look at the antifreeze for oil and the oil for antifreeze. The heads on these engines are fairly amazing works of engineering but a lot of them were cracked from improper shutdowns and THAT more than the serial number will affect value.

My TD-6 outworks my 2005 New Holland TC33A by far...

To me a TD6 has little if any value. I have had a couple of them. They are under powered
and expensive to keep going. The farm crawlers would probably have a little better value.

Dave, There are different models of TD-6 that may be more desirable than others. Some are narrow and some are wide. Some were for farming and some were for construction. Some had erie bucius blades and I was told that there was an Industrial model. So I guess it depend what you are looking for. The more fitures it has the more value it will have. oldiron29

Dad has a TD6 Bulldozer. not sure of the year late 50s I think, but it has a pure deisel engine and a drott 4 way bucket. Bucket has no tilt.Smooth tracks. My uncle broke the ring and pinion in it and put in another that makes it run way too fast. Oh well! I may get off my butt and fix it right someday. Pretty much unuseable the way it is.

The models built in the 50's tend to fetch more money, mostly because they have larger motors. To my knowledge, unlike some wheel tractors,there is no particular serial number or series of numbers that is more collectible than others (maybe the very first or last produced??)

If they are collectible at all kind of depends on the definition of a collector. In my view, they aren't as collectible as wheel tractors. One of the reasons I am told is that they are more difficult to transport to shows and they often can't be used in parades because of the damage from the tracks. You will see a few at shows and as Sheldon can tell you, there is a whole community of red tracked machine owners over at redpower.com. Most of them, like myself, use our crawlers for regular work. They are a nice machine for specialized uses and typically more affordable than some other dozers or crawlers.

Maybe if you had serial number "1" the very first TD-6 ever... otherwise I would assume a TD-6 is a TD-6

But I am by no means a "proper collector" so I may be way off course.

Are TD-6's "collector's" items?

What exactly do you mean by "is there a difference in value with different serial numbers?"?

Good luck, you should post a picture of your TD-6.

Andy.
