Brian, if there's a nicer sounding tractor than one of those old Cats, I
don't know what it would be.   :)

Dean,
When you decide that you need a crawler tractor, try a diesel 40 or RD6 with
a 3 cylinder engine for another variety of sound:

The starting procedure will keep you entertained for a while also:

Hehe.  Dean, as I was reading that, before I got to your last paragraph, I
was thinking to myself, "All he needs now is a Oliver 6 cylinder sewing
machine engine to round things out"!  Although, I'll have to add that a WD45
is a sweet sounding engine too.
