Ive posted a picture of this thing probably 3 years ago qhen i tried to buy it then. I bought the series II back then from them but they didnt want to let go of this one.
Serial # D21 1158 D. No pto or 3point. Has correct 3400 and never been converted to series 2. (Non turbo, no oil cooler, short radiator etc).
It looks bad but is supposed to run. They pulled the sheet metal to restore the tractor but they finally lost interest.
Dont know if i want to keep it and restore or do some work to it and make it reliable and sell for someone else to restore.

I would be interested if you know that you have all of the parts.   We own every model of the D Series except for the 21 & 10.   Haven't been able to get the D-21 & $ together at the same time so far.    PM me if you want to sometime sell it.

The sheetmetal is good except the grille. Hood needs alittle work around the exhuast hole but other than that its surprisingly straight after looking at the grill. I have pristine chrome grille and another decent chrome grill. We've got 3 complete 21's and 2 carcasses.

There's another thread here where I posted pics of some of the stuff at Caleb's dad's place.  Hoping they can save this tractor is an understatement.  They'll make it like new.

Save it, there not making any new ones. I'd bet that if you and a dad or buddy worked a few hours you would have it looking like a tractor again. In other words I see potential. Keep us posted, Trev.

True!!! They got all kinds of awesome stuff!! Not all tractors either!
If they can restore a Reeves steamer, they can restore the D21!

Im almost positive this one will stay together. Im going to check all the fluids and if every thing looks good then ill start it and see how it runs.

For all of those interested in parts. We have quite abit of parts but ill have to look and tally up what i have.

Ill probably be selling a series II and this series I in the future.
