Vintage Bulldozer forgotten for a decade.. Will it start??

- I heard about an old Bristol 25 dozer sitting in a shed in a remote part of the Marlborough Sounds for the past decade so I went to investigate.
The machine was no longer used by the owner so I paid $500 for it and I will go back there soon, give them a quad bike and try to get some of the other old machines running for them.

Ahh the subtle sounds of metal tracks.. wonderful old machine
Watched one of these "will it start?" videos from the US. The yank never shut up with his loud voice. Kiwis and Aussies are such a refreshing change.
Americans can only blab out oh my goooood, this is insane,.A american baby is born the first words it says after looking around is "this is rediculous! looks at the doctor and exclaims ,are you for real?
I don't know if you'll like other types of "will it run" style videos but I find Junkyard Digs to be very informative with his and not very loud for an American.
Junkyard digs, mustie1,watchweswork,and a bunch of other ones are very good information videos and aren't loud at all.
Quite rude, hostile and ignorant aren't you? 👍
Also Diesel Creek, but he's got a range of stuff not just will it start type videos.
I NOTICE THAT A LOT OF THE MACHINES YOU FIND THAT ARE NOT RUNNING IS DUE TO NEGLECT OF THE PREVIOUS OWNERS. I WAS ALWAYS TOLD THAT IF YOU TAKE CARE OF YOUR STUFF, YOUR STUFF WILL TAKE CARE OF YOU. ANOTHER MARTY SPECIAL! 🌞✌️👍
Also love your dedication of greasing, most people well and truly overlook it or cant be bothered
SO TRUE. I LIKE PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE VS. CORRECTIVE! ✌️👍🌞
Genuinely makes me so happy
Give this man any engine.. no matter how old.. he is going to run it perfect.. 👌👌
Always great to watch and everything he attempts is always done at the best ability 🇮🇪.
I am from Germany, -so I got the automatic Translation put on if the sound got too difficult to catch... Every time a motor starts or machine is running, it quotes : *"Applause"* or *"Music"* . Which is exactly mho 😂😂😂.
Nice little Dozer. I’d call her Doozie😏🤓
I just love this guy... these have to be the most relaxing videos on UA-cam! I can't wait to see what he pulls out of the woods or a barn next!
Awesome! Be perfect for mountain jeep trails. Great video.
Love your channel man you are very intelligent and know what your doing. Glad to see these antique heavy duty machines come back to life. It's crazy how good condition most of them are and how everything still functions for the most part. Cars and trucks of the same age require so much more.
I enjoy your calmness.
Even when you nearly took out the garage. ;)
You had me at Vintage Bulldozer! Yep, I'll buy it. Those things are awesome. I have no use for one, but I would get a load of dirt deliverd and play on it. This is what men do for enjoyment!!!!
Enjoyed it. Thanks for taking me along.
You would find a gold mine here in America. These old machines are sitting everywhere.
Marty you are really good at what your do cause you could have a machine that's been sitting for decades and be like" alright today we are gonna get this 1926 ford model t running its been sitting for 40 years but i have faith"
A pleasure as always... 👍
I am glad to see that there people prepared to put time, money, and energy into giving new life to old machinery.
This is great for watching n relaxing. Your approach, execution and attitude is so relaxing and comforting. Nice work Marty👍
rockin' the whistler blackomb sweater...nice
The Mustie1 of New Zealand! Great wee dozer! Cheers for another great piece of (local!) content!
the vw king lol
I was thinking more of Squatch253. Does a lot of old Caterpillar restoration videos. He's rebuilding a D2 block right now.
Robert Breeden thank you for the recommendation of Squatch253. I was wanting to find another UA-camr like that to watch. Do you watch Andrew Camarata?
@@relanejr Can't say I've seen his stuff. Glancing at his videos though I'll have to check him out!
i watch both squatch and mustie but i directly tought of squatch as well
Well done for finding and saving another piece of our industrial heritage...
I love watching you rescue "vintage" machines. You do a great job. Sounds like it needs to be lubed. 🤔 lol
Man, I just love vintage "will it start" videos. You captured my subscription with the Excavator.
Thanks for the videos.
Nice dozer marty, I wish I had a machine like that.
Marty, you find the best deals.
Beautiful scenery on the way to pick up the dozer... you live in a beautiful country...and you got the dozer home.....looking forward to seeing what you do with it
So is the begining of your constrution company you have a digger and a dozer lol.
Nice find i am sure we will see more of the dozer.
@@rufushowe3885 that is for the lawn care part of the constrution company lol.
Scruffy 61 Now, he needs a dependable dog, like Levi, to travel with him. Angry Ram is not very cuddly. He’s only friendly when being fed.
@@Poppi2006 lol.
@Joshua Dowling by no means am i knocking him at all i would love nothing more than to see things go good in any endeavor he does.
the simple approach ...keeps reminding me of my Grand Dad... your special attention to oil and lub ...he would enjoy....he use to say ...the life of an engine ...is the changing of oil
Lovely watching
Sweet little dozer. It's great to see some old machinery given life and a job again. Thanx for sharing Marty!
Just shows that if you are willing to put a little work in and hunt around for it ! 🙂
Engine sounds decent, believe it will be a good asset for your place ! Getting a nice collection for not much money!
Thanks for sharing and take care. 👍
How says you have to spend thousands to have some toys around to play with. I like his collection of equipment every thing runs and does its job.
Just saw the same machine in Petersburgh NY USA, for sale $5000. Well done sir.
Another great video, Marty 👍. To the commenters who are worried about the tracks squeaking. This tractor is from before sealed and lubricated track chains were invented, so the pins and bushes run ‘dry’. When you can’t hear them squeaking, thats a cause for concern because that means mud, clay or rock dust has gotten in and is creating excessive wear.
Hiiii Marty my friend !!! yeeeeesssss just need to clean the windshield and inflate the air-bags !!
All the best my friend a new success BRAVOOOOooooo!!!
You make it look easy
Getting it going
And getting it home
Fun to watch
My Uncle used to own 'baby' dozer back in the 80's. I was designed to air dropped onto Pacific islands during WWII. All I remember of it is that it was built in 1944 . That thing was really cool
Those things were cool
Great job of strapping it to the trailer!
Another good one Mate , lets see
More of that little Dozer !
Loyal fan in Nashville , Tennessee
I'm a fan in Nashville too.
@Stimpy&Ren true 😅
22 hp according to Tractordata. Hard to see how you could get very far with that.
Marty T, cleaning up New Zealand one forgotten piece of heavy equipment at a time.
Nice find. A fan from Montana
Thats a snazzy little bull dozer.
Lovley, those old machines really are built so well and so straightforward to maintain. I bet you get years of work and satisfaction from owning it, for the price of a weeks hire of a new one.
Love this, my father bought and old 1960's mini backhoe like 15 years ago, hydraulic drive tracks and I think it's an 18 hp Onan engine. Still no idea what brand it is. It has a custom weighted blade and no hood lol. As small as it is it's still like 6000 pounds. Every friggin time he used it he blew a hydraulic line. After replacing them all he was able to dig up his well and septic tank for service. This is exactly the kind of shit my father would do until recently. (now he's too old to do this).
I`d say that sweet old girl was tired of being a Barn Princess; started right up & wanted a ride to her new home !
The best I've seen so far has to be the Hitachi Excavator in the forest. I am impressed. Good find and better yet, the work to get her running, walked out and the rebuild on the pins and getting it to 80% functioning. Good on ya... all the way from California's High Desert, USA! GOOD JOB!
I can tell that you really enjoy what you do. By sharing your adventures with us, joy is brought to many thousands more. Thank you very much for sharing. The only thing that could be better would be if I lived next door and you would ring us up and say, come on mate, let’s go pick up an abandoned...........
I am always amazed at what you accomplish with some of this old, abandoned equipment. Thanks for the video.
Nice old girl.
Excellent video.
Shows just what a bit of TLC can achieve.
The title states "will it start"? Certain to start once Marty has his hands on it- best wishes from retired digger driver in Sheffield UK
The old 2.1/4 litre Austin engine was just about bulletproof. I had one in an old LD van that had done almost 300K miles and still ran sweet .Oil and filter change every 5k and regular plugs and points service was all it ever needed.
Great viewing ,thanx
Great stuff Marty T! That old Austin sounded sweet even without a muffler. Thought you were going to go right through the shed there for a moment! Keep up the good work, really enjoy this type of content.
wow, real life Footrot Flats. All you need is the dog. Thumbs up from Aussie.
Cool machine. I was surprised the carb didn't need to be rebuilt. Thank you for sharing, great video.
I love these videos. It’s really neat to see you resurrect these machines from the dead! And the birds singing at the beginning when you started working on the bulldozer are absolutely beautiful. I don’t hear those in Dallas Texas.
Lol, I wouldn't say it was dead. It needed fresh fuel,a new battery and some lubricant.
Brilliant - love to see how you fix her up in the coming months. Lovely little machine that. Best wishes Andy - West Sussex England
Great find and good luck with your restoration...know you can do it mate, patience, persistence and can do attitude.
Awesome, Would love to see a Video showing us all of your Old Machinery you've collected and brought back to life
Marty T I started watching your Older videos cause I can'nt find others to watch. Take care.
Excellent find ! Antique Iron, you've got to just love it.
Always fun to watch you and these old machines. Thanks for letting us take a look.
Another great find and rescue hope all go,s well with the restoration.
*fixes Dozer * joy Rides dozer round * hangs Dozer up for 10 years lol
After watching some of your videos, you have acquired some nice equipment for personal use. Although they would not stand up to hard big time use in a construction company, they are certainly good for the home owner, and will last a long time, with good maintenance. I really enjoy your videos, and greatly appreciate you taking the time to make them.
I enjoy watching you bring these old treasures back to life after sitting idle for a long time ! Great Work ! Keep doing your UA-cam videos .
that red debris in the fuel is Rust. you can use a super magnet with a hole in the middle.. some solid copper wire twisted thru the hole to let you retrieve it with a hook.. the super magnet will pull all that Red dUST to it.. keeping it out of the filters, pump, carb..
wayne p crate information
A coarse inline fuel filter and a neodymium magnet attached to it is great at trapping rust. Plus you get to see what comes out of the tank.
@@otm646 I actually use 1984 Corvette fuel filters because they're 10 Micron rated and catch all of the Dust except a super super fine and a magnet catches that
another fine piece of machinery from an era when they built things to last longer than 5 yrs 😏
thanks for sharing
🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡
Back in the early 90's I was living in Washington state. Several friends had picked up old dozers from the early 50's that the blades only went up and down. They were too heavy to haul around and with those one way blades you could buy them for around $800.00 to $1,000.00 They were real handy to have and most ran good. Several friends dozed off house pads with them and leveled driveways. This film which I enjoyed brought back some good memories, thanks!
That is an awesome contraption!
That is a nice little crawler. I look forward to seeing it in future videos.
Was worth the trip down. Great little machine!.
I love old machinery, this is great stuff!
I love it how you do so little, it may be hours, to get a machine running that has sat for so many years.
As middle age man that dosent drive not mechanical in any form I find these old work horses been saved reused so satisfying. Been Irish with high insurance road worthy tests on older vehicles yearly the system designed to stop people keeping older vehicles running threw extra costs. So we consume consume the new option less hassle also 10 to 15yr old vehicles are basically scrap value threw legislation high costs so unfair. Which in turn means so many vehicles end been scrapped cause there older insurance dont want insure so sad. Cheers thanks many regards from Ireland. 👍🇮🇪☘
Marty T does it again! Well done. Can’t wait to see you put it to good use.
This is a good find, will be very useful for earth works. Build a 1 liter capacity fuel tank that you can connect to any dormant engine by connecting a fuel pipe at one end of a suitable tin container and screw cap(with breather) at the other end. Mount this on a 20 by 10 piece of wood and hang it beside the engine to gravity feed into the carburrettor bypassing the dirty tank and fuel lines.
Good idea
Great work as always and good to see you had a little help with this one, especially on the camera.
Tool set is awesome. Thanks Reece from Supercheap Auto!
Hey Marty, you are building a nice collection of old machines!
I enjoy watching you resurrect these old machines
Another amazing find and recovery. Love this channel
Fabulous recovery, thanks for sharing
Can’t wait to see more videos of that dozer!
Nice work Marty, Keep up the videos and thanks for sharing part of your life with us. 👌
You can really find the old classic plant marty . Excellent job , personally I would be in my element finding and bringing the old decent machines back to life . I love a challenge to see them all back to working , clean , well maintained condition . Keep up the excellent work . Nz seems to have a lot of classics around everything from cars, lorries , plant , bikes . Judging from what ive seen on the tube . A restorers dream is nz .
These videos are incredibly satisfying to watch
Cool little machine. Nice one.
Wow, what a great deal ! I wish I could find one like that. Nice little dozer.
Another handy machine added to the collection! Nicely done mate!
Aww the digger has a buddy now, great work mate 😀😀😀
Greetings from GA USA, Nice Job and cool old crawler.
Love the views you show while driving very nice looking county side
Just loving what your doing to save long forgotten earthmoving equipment. Looking forward to the next installment. Greetings from Woomera, South Australia. 👍👍🇦🇺
That's a cool looking lil baby dozer 😅 almost reminds me of a universal carrier or something.
Haha that thing sounds like a tank from ww2 when it moves with all the squeaks
It could have aspired to be one considering it's nz, home of the Bob Semple
Thought the same ha
@@fenderOCG Nothing can stop a Big Bob.
I was thinking ww1 !
Sounded like equipment to me?
Love to see these Old machines got to go again well done mate
Lovely bit of Kit .
My favourite UA-cam channel (well, you and Primitive Technology)
Much respect for your skills in reviving old mechanical gems!
BTW That's a beautiful part of Aotearoa you're in by the look of it!)
Marty is a one man Army... I just subscribe!
Congratulations with your new bulldozer, looking amazing. Thank you for sharing your amazing story. God bless you and your family
