I agree with you on the wording--- "converted A" is indeed more accurate. On the thread of "converted tractors", we actually at one point had enough parts left over from several of these conversions that we cobbed together--- over a weekend--- a C with no touch conrol, using the C113 engine/gas tank/etc. out of an A. A neighbor of ours thought this was pretty ingenious, and bought it from us and used it to rake hay and run an elevator---for years. Last I knew, one of his sons had it up in northern IN, and had painted it. The biggest challenge, as I recall, was that we had to weld the little clip or holder for the steering shaft on the torque tube, as the A torque tube didn"t have the little milled place with the two 1/4 bolt holes drilled in it for the clip. Again, this was a 16 and 17 year old's wild idea as to how to use up parts laying around. Again, this was long before the "Super HTA" craze arose.
I"d like to see/know more about how they fixed the electric winch to raise and lower the mower on the A you mentioned.
