You should see the dredge! ,built before WW2, it has, since the 1980's pulled out 2 tones of gold and there still more river bottom to process.

At first glance I thought we are talking about a 70 ton-class forest fire fighting dozer. And yes, I was a little bit excited about this. Red color and bush screens lured me into it. Thanks for clearing up the paintjob as a dedication to International heritage. Great idea, she looks awesome. Love the engine growl from the K19. Would love to see further videos of this beast.

The TD40 was purchased new in 1992 and has worked 30,000 hours. It has been re-built except for the final drives and steering clutches which are original. The machine was built in Poland, but was designed by International Harvestor Company USA before they went out of business. It was a very sad time when that company failed. I have painted it the original IH colours in recognition of the original designers.

Not precisiusly. TD40 is co-op project of Polish company Huta Stalowa Wola and American International Harvester. Yes, we buy license for smaller models, but this giant is co-op. Here You can read something (article in polish, Dressta market menager write them) about this beast: www.retrotraktor.pl/readarticle.php?article_id=218 Also You can buy a book about that, but in polish... :/ lubimyczytac.pl/ksiazka/240697/stalowe-kolosy

As a kid there was a International Dealer and everyday on the way to school I would stop and admire all the machinery. I remember seeing this dozer too. Years later I actually got to operate a few Caterpillars. Sure miss those days.

Really nice to see that conversion! My uncle working in Huta Stalowa Wola (in polish it's mean "Foundry in Steel Village", because it's big industrial city founded before the war) and making TD40's series. Little sad because today Huta Stalowa Wola become to chinese capital, and nobody know what will be happen with "Big Fortys" and other equipment".

Excelente vídeo. Mi padre tiene un td40b pero hay una diferencia entre los rodillos superiores de la oruga. Veo que su maquina tiene soporte o agarre doble en dichos rodillos superiores. El de mi padre usa los rodillos de un solo soporte. Esa es una excelente máquina pesa 67700kg con kta19. Se siguen fabricando en Polonia bajo el nombre de Dressta. Ahora es Dressta liugong comprada por china

Some of these Dozers look tiny compared with the modern D9’s and D10’s and even more impressive are the massive Komatsu brands. What exciting times, I’d work there, now where did I put my metal detector? LoL

Great looking dozer and good to see the IH badge on the front even though it's not designed by IH. They did however come out with a TD 30 in the early sixties. That was a badly designed machine that almost killed the reputation of IH. Since then they have not come out with a D8 sized machine.

I also drove a BTD20 with a RR motor in the 70's. It was okay to operate, but the transmission let it down badly. They never used tapered roller bearing in the transmission so everything came loose all the time.

Rusty,while its true these old dozers are basic and plain, ask your self this, on a job site would you run one of these,noisy, dusty,hot or cold, weather depending dozers, or would you run a nice quiet, clean piece of equipment, that is way more productive. I am an operator by trade. and yes I love the old iron to but facts are facts

This is on the West Coast in New Zealand, it doesn't get hot or cold there, mild temps all year, so weather dependent doesn't matter unless you inude rain, which there is a shitload of being a rainforest. This dozer is also more of a show piece that the owners park up and decorate outside their coal yard at Christmas
