[AT] Farmall 240 notes and appeal on IH Farmall needs

[Al Jones]

John,

I have noticed that on the Super A-1 in the few times I have driven it. 
That big steering wheel is right on my knees.  When I get to really working 
on it, I'm going to try sliding the seat back a couple holes to see if that 
helps.

Al
