td-18

Yes I’m still looking , thanks

I don’t plan on using it , it was done more to preserve a bit of history and I just can’t sit on the couch all the time

Got a few decals on

These seem to be what may have been used from approximately 1949 to maybe as late as 1955 but I’ve also seen a few variations over the years as well . I like this configuration so I went with it

Here are some pictures of the decals that I had made . I hope to have them Put on soon and then I will share some pictures .

The “TDR” means it is a td-18, I have never seen it printed anywhere as to what the “r” actually means . The “suffix letter code” at the end of the actual serial number will tell what options or the configuration of the machine . The suffix letter code can be found in the rear of a parts catalog . The serial number prefixes for some of the other models are as follows : tdbk-td6 tdcb-td9 tdf-td14 tdr-td18 tde-td24 i hope this helps

I have obtained a few sets of original international harvester decals and there are some variations of how they have been done over the years . Some have the dash between the T6 , or T-6 some don’t . I do have an original “tractractor “ decal but I’m going for the early to mid fifties scheme which is close to the early style just no tractractor decal on the back of the tank and the “ international” on the hood has the shaded IH symbol attached to it . I hope to see them soon. I have also come up with what I think is a very close match to the silver canvas that was used as the upholstery on th

Thanks for the pictures 👍

I should have some very accurate reproduction decals available shortly

Thanks for the kind replies , I will post more when I have the decals and the seat on it

No front pump

Yep it’s to the D5 serial number 9M27 , one of 46 machines built in 1939

Yes height and width hole size and spacing ,

Yes , eventually I have 1 td-18 and a td-18A the early 18 was an army tractor and its near perfect now but the 18A needs a bit more work but I’ve got a yellow project that I’m currently heavily involved in at the moment , it’s one of those once in a lifetime chances !!

Runs and drives!! Happy thanksgiving
