I've located a TD35 or TD40 with a homemade hydraulic dozer blade that I may be able to get for just a few hundred dollars. I looked up the serial number once and I think it is a 1937 TD40. It has electric start and was painted red. I won't be using it very much - just dozing dirt and snow now and then. Does anyone have an opinion on the reliablity and parts availability of these tractors? Is the starting procedure simple enough someone can email it to me? I have a TD40 parts book, so I can identify the control levers. Is the starting similar to a TD14? I know I can find someone around here who knows how to start one of those. The tractor hasn't run in several years, so I'll have to drain gas and put in fresh. Diesel, too, or will old diesel burn pretty well? Thanks for any help anyone can give.
