Looking for the model year I know that its between 1962-1964 but would love a more precise year.

looks to be a 1964 2000

21201 is the model number
2**** - 134 ci gasoline or 144 ci diesel engine
*1*** - Industrial and agricultural models produced after 1963
**20 * - Utility-type w/adjustable front axle
*1**1 - Four-speed w/PTO

57059 is the serial number
1964 Serial number 38931 - up

Thank you!! I was able to figure out it was around that time frame as the starter was on the left side but it definitely helps to know the exact year.

(quoted from post at 21:31:04 09/27/21) Thank you!! I was able to figure out it was around that time frame as the starter was on the left side but it definitely helps to know the exact year.

All 4 cylinder 2000 models had the starter on the left side and all 3 cylinder models had them on the right side. They are completely different animals, The 4 cylinders are referred to as "earlier", or "prior" or "pre-1965" and the 3 cylinders models are referred to as "later" or "1965+" models. But they actually continued making the 4 cylinder models onto 1965, and some models like the 4 cylinder 2000 offset even later, and they started making the 3 cylinder models in late 1964 for the 1965 model year. If you're looking for parts for it, make sure that the parts are for the 4 cylinder model.
