Go to www.caseih.com and look at the diagrams in the parts books, that won't answer all your questions but is a start. If your tractor was a gas only tractor, originally, I doubt if it had shutters, they were an option but were standard only on distillate/keosene models. I think the frame rails are cast not forged, so there won't be any casting numbers. Everything not absolutely necessary for the tractor to run was an option. Lights, starter, battery, hydraulics, light box, etc. It had a magneto as distributers were not yet available. The seat sounds original. The pistons were likely cast iron, available as standard and a couple of high altitute versions, there should be a suffix after the serial if high altitude were installed at the factory, although I am not positive that IH used suffixes that early. Guy Fay's books are all very helpful, but do not go into the type detail you want. Best to get an operators manual, pictures of nearly everything is in it and you need one anyway.
