Thank you for these posts. I read them both - twice, and learned a lot from them. It sounds like he found a little jewell. That's got to brighten anyone's heart. I'm surprised to learn that the main engine does not share oil and coolant with the pony. I just always assumed they did. Start up the pony, let it pump up the oil in the main engine, warm the coolant a little and assist in the start of the main motor that way. I'm sure you are right though. I remember Dennis Oneil was a friend of my dad's. He ran a D7 or D8 and dug a lot of basements for my dad who was a carpenter. I remember riding with him several times for an hour or two. That's maybe when I figured out (erroneously) that the engines shared fluids. I had about a 1962 955H for a few years but the pony had been removed and replaced with an electric starter. The sad part about owning a dozer is you can't just take one out for spin like you can a rubber tired job Jason, I'd be happy to see more of this machine and follow it's progress - especially now that I know what you found.
