Have to differ with you also, don't mind discussing things. I could be wrong and could learn something. I have looked at the records before and unless I missed something it showes the first tractor in jan. 52 as FBKM engine serial # being 277923 and first tractor regular gas M FBK serial # 290923. Think cotton harvestors and modified M based tractors was the only thing after the end of march 52. No regular M tractors after march. Unless I'm mistaken he said the engine # was 272809 so from past work on this I put the engine serial # 13000 higher than engine for that engine # range. I also said if engine is original to tractor. If not he will have to determan that by date codes or cast # suffixes sometimes. Here' a real tractor # 286713 engine 273713. If you notice the engine # is higher than his. For some reason the MD tractor serial numbers for start of Jan. 52 are a good bit lower than gas. 285211. I welcome anyone with a original M tractor around serial 285809 to post one serial or the other and see how many times I get the other # to check it out if you like. When you see the M numbers drop back to 3 digits in 1952, I think thats SM tractor serial numbers even though they don't show it on there.

The General GG was made by the Cleveland Tractor Company (Cletrac) of Cleveland, Ohio. Originally the company was called the Cleveland Motor Plow Company which began in 1912, then the Cleveland Tractor Company (1917) and finally Cletrac.
