man I love the history you bring back pete we had one of these big Ole girls on the ranch as a kid and I ran that Ole D 21 as much as possible I even had it as a shop project in high school and we overhauled her and re painted her it was so awsome and the day my grandfather traded it on a steiger panther was a very sad day in my life! ty for this vid!!

Big thanks to you, my friends at Polk Auction Company, for all you guys have done over the years to build out and serve the community of folks who love and care about antique/classic tractors. Folks leave your sales with smiles on their faces. Now I need to make it out to cover your annual big Labor Day sale event in Indiana :-)

I've never seen one before, with the front wheel assist beautiful ole Allis Chalmers 🚜

No chrome grill... Devil is in the details. Still a great tractor.

I hate when someone steps in at the end and try's to steal the buy. Couldn't stop laughing at the lady at the end with the first tractor, she got what she deserved. I bet her husband quit letting her bid at auctions lol

[@tabcreedence6553]

I did that once when bidding on a truck.... waited to the last split second and was a half second late

[@wingman2011]

was this an aftermarket kit, or was this original from the factory? i read that only 10 came from the factory with hydraulic FWA, and 9 were converted back to two wheel drive after mechanical issues.

[@richarderickson5965]

Jordan LeClere this is 1 of 23 made, I think this is 1 of 2 left in the world.

Wow!

He sounds like a dance track

[@tractorguy58]

these are not factory original FWA. the grill is wrong. on the originals it slopes out at the bottom. and the only original FWA d21 still out there is in the allis chalmers museum

[@SilverGleaner]

No the original grill is much like the one shown and the only original D21 with FWA has never been found.
