New to me D3 Info Request was created by Dividingfire

Greetings. I just purchased a D3 that has been parked in the woods for quite a while but seems to run pretty good. I am having trouble finding any information on this specific machine. There is a data plate on it with several numbers.

Can anyone tell me the model year and if this machine has wet or dry clutches?

Thanks!

I'd love to get my hands on a D3B SA for the acreage I'm planning to crop - about 45 acres, if I can close the lease

Cheers,

SA is Special Application which is the designation for ag tractors. Direct drive and maybe extra weight on the front since no blade.
