Thanks to all who commented on my questions, it's all becoming a little clearer now.

FarmallDan,

I checked below the #1 spark plug and found the following code:

6342 DB
2

from which I assume 6342 is the S/N, as it fits in the range of 1939 A S/N listed on this website. I don't have a clue what the DB or the 2 on the second line mean. What you said about the steering shaft is probably true, it looks brand new, no pitting or corrosion...so it's probably new, which explains the extra bracket. If the "L" shaped oil petcocks might not be original, what was the original like? Seems like a dumb way to check the oil level, but I guess Mr Dipstick hadn't been invented yet in 1939. My tractor does have the DZUS type fasteners on the hood and is missing the gussets on the final drive housings. Thanks again for the info, this is fun.

regards,
bob
