Ancient Allis Chalmers HD5 Dozer Claimed by Nature – Will It Run Again?

For over 20 years, I've been living off-grid, powered by a DIY micro hydro generator built from a repurposed smart-drive washing machine . This channel started as a way to share that project and demonstrate how easy it can be to live sustainably. Over time, my focus expanded to include sustainably harvesting timber for firewood and building materials. To make that work easier, I began acquiring and restoring vintage machinery – on a shoestring budget. Seeing these abandoned workhorses come back to life has become a passion, and I love sharing the process with you. My ultimate goal is to inspire others to embrace resourcefulness, reduce waste, and find creative solutions to everyday challenges. If you're interested in DIY off-grid projects, machinery restoration, or simply living a more sustainable life, subscribe and join me on this journey.
Video Description
This 1950s Allis Chalmers HD5 bulldozer had been abandoned on a farm in rural New Zealand for over 15 years after its starter motor failed. The starter was beyond repair, with no replacement available, nature took over—complete with a tree growing in the cab and a wasp nest in the exhaust! My friend Jamie spotted it from the road and we couldn’t resist the challenge. In this video, we will attempt to bring this vintage dozer back to life. If you enjoy this vid, don’t forget to like, subscribe, and share. Let us know in the comments if you can help us find a replacement starter motor for this old workhorse. #VintageMachinery #BulldozerRevival #AllisChalmersHD5 #FarmFind
