D21, here is reality. You are VERY unlikely to find a donor tractor. Your's is early and not common to begin with. You WILL find parts.......over time. I think it is pretty cool that you want to restore it, but you are going to have to be patient. Also, be prepared, those early, correct parts are NOT cheap........did I mention the correct parts are NOT cheap?
Seriously, if you want to restore this, good for you. start slow, and work your way through it. This will not be a 2 month rebuild/restore. In fact, as you progress and get closer to a running specimin, you may end up having to use some later parts until you can get the right ones.
I have been wrenching on tractors, engines, cars, trucks for over 45 years. I can tell you that there are certain things I have been looking for that literally took me 2-3 years to find. Patience. Ask questions here. Cowman, Old-F20 and many others here can help guide you and help you find parts.
