Ok, I have more sn's now, and still no clue. Here is what I do know: Plate on left seat bracket: 288 59, AA1, 1540 Engine block: 8*12*S (aug 12, 1947) on tag above distributor: FAAM, 2 7710 4, AA1 Hydraulic case: L, 9*4*x (sep 4, 1952), 357657R1 Hydraulic case back plate: 354353 R1, L 2 Transmission casing: 6*2*T (june 2, 1948), 351687-R1 Gearbox casing: 5*25*T (may 25, 1948), L 3, 6882 DA With all these sn's, I still don't have a sure date of manufacture. I have read on these invaluable postings that the Super A-1 had "1540" on the plate, but it also had foot pedal for accelerator. Mine doesn't, but there is a hole on the linkage for an extra bar, so I could see where it easily could have had one at some point. From my view, everything was cast in 1947, 1948, and 1952. All the components look like they belong. I.E. the rust color of it all looks uniform, nothing stands out. They hydraulics were cased in 1952, which makes me think this is a 1952 model. Yet, the sn on the seat bracket looks like it's a 1950 model. Confusing!@!!@!@!@ If anyone has anyyyyyy information at all that they could try and shed some light on this for me, I would greatly appreciate it!!! Also, if you have recently rebuilt one of these, I would love to get in touch with you for lessons learned, etc. Thanks again, Doug

New Hitches For Your Old Tractor - by Chris Pratt. For this article, we are going to make the irrational and unlikely assumption that you purchased an older tractor that is in tip top shape and needs no immediate repairs other than an oil change and a good bath. To the newcomer planning to restore the machine, this means you have everything you need for the moment (something to sit in the shop and just look at for awhile while you read the books). To the newcomer that wants to get out and use the machine for field work, you may have already hit a major roadblock. That is the dreaded "proprietary hitch". With the exception of the
