Livermore Brass and Silver Shop.  A little slow, but good quality.

Great Looking Tractor!!!  Never sold one but Allis Chalmers did a GREAT JOB on this one.  Hard to believe in it's time it was one of if not the BIGGEST TRACTOR at 100 hp. 
Now 100 hp is not all that big.  Five hundred plus is out there.
Again - Great Job!!!
Good Luck!

Thanks, I had always wanted a D21 to restore and stumbled on this one in the weeds so I rescued her.

Chad, I think you might want to rethink your choice of words, how about you use the word resurrect.  I think what you started with was way past restoring!?!?  :-)

Yes, it was a mess. I have to thank my brother in law he's the painter. Alot of hours poured into this tractor, but it's always worth it in the end. My dad wants to start on the Two Twenty next.

What a beauty of a D21 you have. It's a great job to save and restore a tractor as you did.

Thanks, I'm glad I found her. It takes allot of work and money to bring them back to life though.

Chad, we haul corn to Livermore from E-town. Cut across from Hartford. Where is your place ? I see one farm near Livermore that has Allis and Gleaner stuff. Nick

The D21 has to be one of the "MEANEST" tractors ever made!!  Yours looks very special,  & even more so with the family along.  You did a very good job. JERRY-KS

Thanks Chad. Yes, Elizabethtown. My nephew went to U K with a guy that works at the Purdue elevator so we have started hauling corn there, sometimes Franklin on Tn. line. Take all the beans to Owensboro. 80+ miles but  Petes with air-ride and cruise helps. So you are on the road from Hartford? SR136 maybe, can't remember! I've seen the 305s.

Great job on the 21!! From the dates on the pictures it looks like it was about a 2 year project? That is what it took me to get mine done....everything is big, heavy and very time consuming......a major project compared to doing a D10 or 15. Eric NY

Beautiful restoration job!  At least it seemed to all be there and not beat up.  It always amazes me as to what people park in the fence row and the reasons they do it.
