dad tells me this dozer was left in a pond during a lunch break, then a squall/gully washer rain came and filled the pond, it was sold as ins. scrap and "Bob" purchased it, he pulled it apart even pulling the injectors apart, detaring the batterys and cleaning the plates then retarring them back together, he used it a few years then a bearing in the trans went out , Bob passed few years ago, the dozer has set for as long as i can rember, dad says at least 30years,

well dad says he rembers selling the piston/liner kits for it, and it was a 6/110
 
Agreed--The 6-110 wasn't the most common Detroit, but they were used by various people in dozers (including the AC HD-21A, if memory serves) and other construction equipment.
 
The Detroit 6-110 was used in a lot of shrimp boats in the 1950s and early 60s. It was supposedly the second series introduced by Detroit, after the 71 series. The development of the 12V-71 doomed the 6-110 in the late 50s.
 
I work for Detroit Diesel/Allison Ltd. a lot of 6-110's
where used in gravel crushers and industrial equip.
 
Buddliners built by Budd Rail Car also used the 6-110. Some even had two engines. Hundreds of these stainless-steel self-propelled cars were used by the Boston and Maine RR. I rode my first one around 1959. They were used on commuter lines as well as long distance to Montreal, Canada and destinations in NH and ME.
 
Don't scrap it if it's complete it can be revived to new like
condition. To many old tractors are scrapped out now. I'm
guilty of it myself but after robbing most of the good parts for
my other tractor it had to go.

it's not mine, and i'm not doing scrapping , just a friend
 
This engine was used in some Euclid scrapers as well. Not well known, but definitely not uncommon.
All of the HD-21 A-C dozers used Allis Chalmers engines that were originally developed by Buda.
This one is an HD-20...
