we just bought a 1953 cat 12, municipal trade in. damn near brand new. it has an aftermarket elec start, were having the motor rebuilt now. point of my post is, it sat for 6 months, i tugged it like 4 feet with my f250 and off it went. cant wait to figure out how to run it.

a beautiful machine! would be very interesting to restore it, since it seems to be in good working conditions

What you got is a Caterpillar 8T grader I got one just like it but mine is in better condition the pony engine and everyting works on it except the generator (typical) just used it to move snow today had some 4-5 ft drifts even they are a powerful old machine mine isnt even restored they meade em to last then it hardly even burs much diesel too even with that great big engine I love the old girl she runs like a top the only bad thing is the dry clutch and parts for em you cant find them any more

The transmission is just fine. It can handle more punishment than that.
