D4 serial number ends with an N?

I'm guessing the "N" is a "W".

Yep your correct I just noticed that now too under the paint it is clearly a Wv... So that likely indicates wide gauge tractor then? Assuming I can get it running easily, what would it be worth?

well most of my cats i bought not running but complete and that usually get scrap price plus a little how bad do you wont it lol. how hard is it to get at to hall it out that can take some time just getting it ready for a move what do you have to move it with one of the smarties thinks i did was put a Hyd winch on my trailer for halling dead stuff up on to it. as you can see picking this cat up from the auction site when very well but i have a sixty that has frozen tracks and well that took 2 good days and some re figuring. with the way things are in AB right now i don't think it should command too much. the question that is always ask why was it park or it ran when it was park?

Got her hauled home today at the cost of a case of beer, have a friend with a big winch truck so loading it was no problem. We pulled it out of the trees with a tractor and got both steering clutches free... The reason it was parked was because the man who owned it passed away and the kids now decided to clean up the yard. Both engines are free and the under carriage appears recently re done as the pins? Are almost perfectly round and the rollers look really good... They must have reused the pads which have really smooth and perfect shaped holes cut out of them so I don't think they were gas axed out. The reason I think pads were reused is because of the large gap between them...

Well I hate to say it but I dont think the Princess and the boy will even wait till Im cold before they clean up LOL they will have the auctioneers on speed dial LOL

Looks like a great machine to my untrained eye

Looks like snow pads. Holes seem bigger than most. I have never seen pads with factory cut square holes like your picture. Of course I have not seen it all by any means.

Here you go, one with a square hole straight from Caterpillar, 1950. I think the round ones, are more of the fruit jar lid pattern….any way that’s the
way is was in my neck of the woods.
