D5 68j00050 was created by westwind

Anyone know of track parts available for this tractor? If serial number is correct this model was made in Japan about 1969.

I show the 68Jxxxx (LGP series) as being a unit built in France with #50 built in 1967.
Undercarriage wouldn't be any different than other D5's

Thanks for the response on the undercarriage. It appears the D5 LGP 68J followed the 98A prefix, both manufactured in Japan.

Yup, you're correct. Looked it up in the Cat s/n ID number index.
68J is Japanese starting 1968, the 98A is Japanese starting 1967. Just goes to show you can't believe some of the published info.
