Breaking one to lead this morning

Mom and dad needed to make some barn repairs this morning
but couldn't get the 1955 to start to move it out of the way, so
they hooked a leash on it and gave it a tug with the 1950T.
Fires right off with a pull, guess a gear reduction starter is in
order for this one too.

I would buy some good batteries, good battery cables, and freshen up the Delco starter that has stood the test of time. The starter does not cost that much to overhaul if you do it yourself.
Parts found any anywhere.
I had a nippondenso gear reduction on my backhoe.
Starter motor burned up. New starter motor for gear reduction unit is $400.
Just for the heck of it I bought a Chinese starter for my 1950. It works good, it was cheap
enough. But, as for parts I think you make your own or throw it on the scrap pile.
