[Farmall] can't be beat

[Al Jones]

The engine does have a serial number, but it will not match the tractor
serial number.  I think they quit trying to match the numbers, at least
on the A/B series, in the early '40s.

If it is a '47, contact me off list if it ever comes up for sale!

Now I've got to go and have a look for myself. Dad copied down the
serial 
number and looked it up. Give me a day or so and let me see what I get. 
Didn't the blocks have serial #'s as well? Did they match the tractor #?
