A514D is the Australian built Row Crop version of the A554 broadacre tractor. Hugh summed up the specs pretty well.
The tinwork is very different any US built trctors of the same era because the very low production numbers in the Geelong factory, in relation to any of the US factories, meant the ewconomies could never justify too many major tooling changes.
1570 number on Serial No. plate is max. idle revs, which was less than the A554 1970 rpm.

inoz: If you go into the archives here at YT there is discussion about British and Austrailian built Farmalls. They are quite different from American built Farmalls in three real noticable ways. First they have always used a glow plug, direct start diesel, secondly thay always had a factory 3 point hitch going all the way back to the early 50s. Finally sheet metal used on British and Austrailian Farmalls were never the same as American Farmalls at any given time except in the days of the M.

They never used American 00 or 50 sheet metal. what we know as letter series sheet metal styling was used into the mid 1960s. At that point the whole configuration of the British tractor changed. The Austrailian tractor around 1965, two years after the end of American 460-560 production. started using 60 series sheet metal out front but retained the M type dash and fuel tank.

When you are getting infromation or maybe you already know what year was that model built?

Seems strange to me that they put the 60 series tin work on a MD and skipped the 00 and 50 series.

Maybe its 60 tin on a 50 series?I don't know

NB. There was a fellow from Connecticut (may be wrong on state) that owned some of those tractors. He had at least 2 fixed up and at a couple of Red Power roundups in the mid 90es. Also feathured in Redpower magazine artical at one time. He seamed to know a good deal about them and where to find parts. Maybe someone on here can shed some light about person and if he's still around.

Ken: I don'think you should use the term they, if your indicating Austrailians. I've seen a a good many tractors across the US and Canada with the tires on backwards.
