[AT] Case D

    David;
    The serial number tag is located on the lower instrument panel on letter 
series tractors. It will not have the -3 or -4 stamped on the tag, as this 
changes with the front axle setup and as Ralph and others posted, they can 
be changed from one to the other. The original build card will say what 
configuration it was when built.

    If the serial number plate is missing, look on the left bellhousing 
engine flange and it will be stamped there. This only applies to Racing 
built tractors, so VAC's will not be stamped there. All tractors and 
implements bile from 1939 to 1952 have a 7 digit serial number. Take the 
first 2 numbers and subtract 4 to determine the year built.

                        Gene

OK, all you guru's.  I have a dumb question (dumb because I haven't even 
looked yet and can't till the weekend).
Does the serial number plate state 'S', 'SC', 'SC-3(4), etc. or whatever?
BTW, (boy this is going to really sound dumber) where is the plate located?
Yeah, I know, I should have at least looked for it since I got it, but...
David
Maybe I should just hide <g>.
