| Great looking pictures. I noticed the mans clothes on the D21. Safe to say those two pictures were not taken on the same day. |

I really like the D21 picture----------there's something about them that I like. Maybe it's the bulldog look they seem to have.

| Thanks for sharing your tractor - farm pictures. In the first photo of the D21, it impresses me still today in 2011, at how much that machine demands attention & allures the senses. I can only guess that seeing one working in a field back in the 1960s (like your photo) made a person do a double take? As a kid in the 60s, I never saw one working in the fields. There were none of them in our small farming community. We only farmed with WDs, a WD45, & a D17. I only saw D21s at local fairs pulling sleds down the track in a torrent of smoke. The first time I saw one at a fair tractor pull, I remember asking my older brothers & Dad, "What's a D21?" They quickly cued me in and I have been given them double takes ever since. |

I would like to put a set of 34's on the rear of my 185 also. Does anyone know where another set of 34"rims and centers may be?
Thanks.
