Pretty much most if not all had hand clutches...some were moved to the left hand side for things like running a roto baler where you were looking over your left a lot. Snap coupler was made standard in 53 or 4. but could be adapted to an earlier tractor fairly easy. By the way..this ones missing a fender as well.... -Wes

Have seen (and rehabbed) much worse. The sway in the front axle would cause me to investigate into the condition of the front axle and front gearbox (indicates the tractor may have had a loader on it at one time). There is no mention of engine condition, hand clutch condition, "jumping out of 3rd gear" issue, condition of the brakes, seal leakage, and charging sysyem. Mentions rust on the rear rims; are rear tires loaded and are rear rim locks free? Would also investigate into these items as well.

Bigfish, I would ask any questions you need to him. I have watched a bunch of tractors that he has sold over the years, and from what I have seen, he has always been very honest about the condition. I almost bought a D14 from him three or four years ago, and he was very honest about it jumping out of 3rd. I would ask the questions you need to and go from there. Waterloo is an hour and 10 minutes west from me. I could go and look at it for you if you're serious about it, but I couldn't do it till this weekend.
