I have seen B's with one front wheel. this was often an option ,depending what kinds of row crop you were growing. I have H's and an M and their serial #'s are quite visible on the transmission tube about where the clutch plate would be. It is possible that the serial tag is gone but unlikely.As for the clutch problem, my experience is that many of these old farmalls didn't always get their clutches adjusted as they wore.There are three bolts that make the adjustment so you don't have a sloppy clutch.I'm not familiar with working on a B, butlike many farmalls there is likely a plate on the belly pan to make the adjustment through."Schrammer", check out photographs on line, you should be able to find a B and compare it to yours. As for adjusting the clutch there is a jamn nut on the bolt into the pressure plate. Loosen the Jamn nut and turn the bolt in. You will see the "finger" move back towards the throw-out bearing. Leave about 1\16th inch between the finger and the bearing. When all 3 are adjusted you should have 3\4th inch play on the clutch pedal, and a good working clutch.Check the linkage from the trans. to the engine while you are in there.Best of luck from Mike Soldan in Exeter Ontario
