I spent over 20,000 hrs on TD 15s, 1 X 15 B with a DT 407 & 2X td15Cs. Awesome dozers back in their day. Towed cable scoops behind two of them and had rippers on the last one, was on them from new, over 6,000 hrs on each. That one looks to be an early B series with the DT 361 motor.
would be fun to experience one in relatively new condition. The ID plate seems to be missing from its location so i could not find the serial number to state its build year, but it has the DT 361 motor yes. I dont suppose there is any other ways to tell its age?
I have a book on IH Payline Division which shows TD 15B production starting in 1963 and ending in 1972 when the C series came out. I was on a new TD 15 B that had a DT 407 and its S/N was 22954, the book shows s/n 22936 as being 1969 build, so I have a guess at a DT 361 one would be between 1963 and maybe 1968.@@quattroTorsen
My old man had several TD 15 dozers over the years. The B and C series balanced machines and sturdy. I used to do a lot of fine grading on different sites with them. Bet you can work a full 8 hours with it just fine Great sturdy and dependable machines, built to last
I run one of these with a straight blade. Great machine.
