I have the same machine, early 21Z with the e bar caps instead of pins, bought it for nothing had to build the engine, replaced drive motor hoses and some misc items, been doing good finished my first job with it, I leave the 977 parked now that i have the 63 much smoother, faster and have a lot better view of the the bucket with the 63.
Nice Story there Brother.
