Mike, to save you a search of the archives the person who restores Farmall seats is Darrell Darst. He is also the national president of the IHC Collectors and editor of the Harvester Highlights magazine. His contact information is 18324 Monroe Road 1073, Madison, MO 65263 or email is farmall130@socket.net. He truly does a first rate restoration as he has the original tools to re-roll the lip after replacing the padding and canvas cover. His seats are just as original as they were when new as I set in a lot on new Farmall seats back in the 1940's and 50's. As noted by other folks the silver canvas is the original material and color for all that I saw on new tractors from the mid 1940 and on which would include your 1944 model. His charge for restoration of your seat pan is $125 in a primer coat returned to you. You will need to contact him for instructions before shipping your seat to him. You will get your original seat returned to you. His seats are nothing like the reproductions I've seen which are a canvas appearing vinyl, hope this helps, Hal.

To top that off, you have a cup with oil in it ("why would you want to lubricate your carburetor?"). On closer examination (and some reading in a AC D-14 service manual), I found out that this is a pretty ingenious method of cleaning the air in the tractor's intake tract.
