[Farmall] 330U info?

[Jim Becker]

The 330 was basicly a 340 with 350-like sheetmetal.  According to Guy's data 
book, there were a few over 4,000 built, which is still pretty low numbers. 
It was about 2 inches shorter than a 350 because of the smaller engine, 
which probably made some of the sheetmetal unique to it.

The 300 and 350 both were built before the 330.
