Bob, The cable kill switch is correct for early Farmall A & B tractors. Without parts book, I cannot tell you the change over serial number. If you don't want this mag and kill arrangement, I'll trade you a later mag and switch for it. The bracket beside your throttle is for the kill switch. It is not correct for your tractor, indicating a likely problem with the steering support shaft and replacement of same. The serial number plate was on the brake shaft cover on very early '39 models (later models on LH seat support). If it's gone, look for engine number on RH side of engine block just below number one plug. Originally chassis and engine numbers matched. If yours does not indicate '39 model, engine was likely changed. I don't believe oil petcocks are original with "L" shaped handles. I suspect these are aftermarket replacements. Other clues to '39 model are Dzuz hood fasteners (through mid '40 or so) instead of J hooks and missing reinforcement gussets on final drive housings where implements attach.
