Durk: The serial number 23300 is questionable. We had this discussion at YT several years ago. I forget the particulars however it seems that did not happen at exactly 23300. I also remember a group of tractors with new type grill, then a later group with old grill. It seemed as though IH started using the new type grill, then discovered they had a stock of old grills.
It's in the archives somewhere, I can't remember the particulars, but I was satisfied there are 140s out there with new grill and serial numbers as low as 22000.
My 140 is serial number 22157, I've had the front sheet metal, rad and water pump off. During this procedure I was looking for evidence of the grill being changed. I am satisfied this tractor came from factory as it is. In that earlier discussion there was a guy with serial number lower than mine by less than 100. He to was satisfied he had the original grill.
