Hello to all John Deere experts. I have a need for some quick information to help me make a decision and thought some of you may be kind enough to help.
I have run across a 1941 JD “B” and I have checked the serial number to determine that. The current owner thinks it is a 1939 but never mind that.
It is claimed to have been kept inside all of its long life and still has the original rear rubber on flat spoked wheels. Don’t know if they are cut offs. It has the cast iron frame up front and it has a padded seat on the normal seat pedestal instead of the normal steel seat. It is hand start and does start and run. The radiator has anti freeze and holds water. It is claimed to have very good sheet metal. I hope to get a picture tomorrow and will have to make a buy / no buy decision at that time.
Were aftermarket padded seats with a back rest made for this tractor? I think I saw something like that once somewhere.
Did any come with spoked wheels in 1941?
If it is authentic then what might the value range be?
It there anything else peculiar about this year of tractor?
I have done some quick internet research but as is the case sometimes I have to make a quick decision and input for those who have the time would be appreciated.
