Not much to go on. Tire condition is a big factor. Condition of sheet metal, engine smoking, transmission gear jumping, 3 point or snap coupler, Power steering or not, series I or II, gas or diesel... Yes, pictures would help as well. ------------- '49 G, '54 WD45, '55 CA, '56 WD45D, '57 WD45, '58 D14, '59 D14, '60 D14, '61 D15D, '66 D15II, '66 D21II, '67 D17IV, '67 D17IVD, '67 190XTD, '73 620, '76 185, '77 175, '84 8030, '85 6080 |

I've always just uploaded and saved into the 'file manager' section of my 'member' section. THEN I select a picture, resize it within 'file manager' to 640x480 ( VGA size) and put into the message. I think the 'problems' come from DIRECTLY going from 'smartdevice' into the message. I won't own a smart phone as I know and understand what's going on under the hood....

Appears to be later series 1, if parts from a later tractor have not been added. If you can get a serial number (carb side, Flange of the torque tube, should start with D15...) it might help to clarify. Round here, in that shape, about $2500+/- ------------- Source: Babylon Bee.

D15s did not come with a black bar grille. I think it is a late D14 painted with D15 colors and decals. Check the serial number to determine the model where Dave mentioned. ------------- '49 G, '54 WD45, '55 CA, '56 WD45D, '57 WD45, '58 D14, '59 D14, '60 D14, '61 D15D, '66 D15II, '66 D21II, '67 D17IV, '67 D17IVD, '67 190XTD, '73 620, '76 185, '77 175, '84 8030, '85 6080 |

Value of a 14 ain't too much different than a 15. Much the same tractor, till the series 2 15 got the bigger motor... ------------- Source: Babylon Bee. Sponsored by BRAWNDO, its got what you need! |

Value is much the same as a series I D15 - much the same tractor. Originally the grille was painted black at the factory. Hence, it is commonly referred to as the black bar grille. As I said, that tractor has been painted once or more in its life so far. ------------- '49 G, '54 WD45, '55 CA, '56 WD45D, '57 WD45, '58 D14, '59 D14, '60 D14, '61 D15D, '66 D15II, '66 D21II, '67 D17IV, '67 D17IVD, '67 190XTD, '73 620, '76 185, '77 175, '84 8030, '85 6080 |

Huh, good to know I'm waiting to hear back from the owner with the serial number to verify year( and now I guess know weather it's a d14 or d15 also by the serial number) So you think by looking at the grill it was black at one point? Thanks Matt |

I probably wouldn't go over $1500. And that depends on the condition of the rear rims and tires. It would also need to be a running tractor. ------------- D14, D17, 5020, 612H, CASE 446 |

It runs/ shifts drives all fine Im having the owner check that the PTO works and the 3 point works ( any pictures of the 3 point system on these?)what I seen looks possibly incomplete... |

So the serial number appears to be 149 - 233 14K?(it seems to me that maybe this is a d14 maybe the nine is a d, I'm not sure because I'm not there to see it myself I'm just taking what the guy is telling me it looks like Looking at the motor specs it looks like a d14 has less horsepower than a series one d15 correct?(from what I could see the d14 had about 30 horsepower and the d15 series 1 had about thirty eight or nine horsepower?) |

| That appears to me to be a late model D-14. Grilles between a D-14 and D-15 shouldn't interchange because the side frames are wider on the D-15 to the same width as a D-17. |

Hmmm, if the serial number that I'm looking forward to identify the year is the 23314 series that's over the max number on a d14 if I'm reading it correctly? Looking at the specs for power between the two it does not specify PTO power on the d14, as on the d15 it shows 40 horsepower... The motor drawbar horsepower rating is 1 horsepower lower on the d14 compared to the d15 if I'm reading that correctly? I'm just trying to get a feel for if I want this tractor or not because it seems to be either mixed together with parts or something, it did not seem to look like it had been jumbled together but it's hard telling I guess... |

| D-14 was 34 HP and D-15 GAS was 40 HP and this tractor doesn't have power steering as it looks to me. Serial number of January 1960 D-14 started at 21,800 and they made them for 5 or 6 months, so 23,314 is very possible. |

Are there any major drawbacks to the d14 compared to the d15 as far as its capabilities or reliabilities? I'm just trying to make an informed decision on weather this tractor will be a lot better partner for brush hogging and then I can keep my ca for sickle mowing... |

Very little difference between the 2 tractors. I have 2 of each and they are very reliable and easy to operate. However, tractor reliability is directly related to the maintenance it has had and how it was used. ------------- '49 G, '54 WD45, '55 CA, '56 WD45D, '57 WD45, '58 D14, '59 D14, '60 D14, '61 D15D, '66 D15II, '66 D21II, '67 D17IV, '67 D17IVD, '67 190XTD, '73 620, '76 185, '77 175, '84 8030, '85 6080 |

That is NOT the tractor number, but the engine number. Tractor number is stamped on the left side flange of the torque tube housing. You need the tractor number to ID the make and year.

Well I did not buy the d14 or d15 whatever it was it started really hard ran terribly, barely moved in any gears except when you dump the clutch and then it would take off, once I got it into 4th gear on the road it backfired sputtered and smoked and both rear tires would have needed replaced including new rims so I respectfully told the guy I was going to pass... I actually think from Reading other people's posts that a wd45 would be more up my alley but it's all depending on price and location |

running poorly.... could easily be bad gas(water),plugged carb, wrong coil, etc. driving bad... could be clutch, PD dry, ?? rears... combine rims/tires ( 14.9-26) fit fine, 1/2 mmy D-14s have them. Yes it sounds more like a 'project' than a 'field ready' tractor but.... I'd snatch it up for $500... If you NEED 'field ready' ,not your first choice though...
