D-12

Johnny Head · Feb 14, 2011

I was visiting with a fellow the other day and he was telling me about a D-12 he has with a mower that he uses to mow his yard. He said he had another D-12 he bought years ago for parts. He has not needed any parts from it and said he was going to sell it for scrap. He said it was complete. I haven't had the chance to see it yet. Is it worth fixing up if it's not too bad, Cracked block or something like that. Thanks in advance. Johnny

If it is worth it or not all depends on what you want to do with it after you get it (fixed up). What ever that means to you.

If you are going to use it for work or play for years to come, in MHO it would be well worth it. If you have in mind to (fix it up) to sell, you probly will not be able to make your money back.

Even with a cracked block, the sum total of the tractor is worth much more than scrap price. A cracked block is easily replaced, as D-14's use the same block, and the block was also used in power units, like pumps and generators. If its a series 3, its worth a LOT more.

A D12 would be a very desirable tractor to collect. About 10,000 made i believe. Later series are worth more as Dave said.

If it is too bad to fix I would think you could do well to part it out and sell parts, if you have time.

I would say you should go back tomorrow morning and get that tractor no matter what the condition. in the last few years we have all lost alot of tractors and parts to the scrap man! I would love to have a D12 I use a D14 now and it is my favorite.
