Bob,
The only way to make sure it is a f-14 is by the serial number. IHC would take in old f-12"s, put on a conversion kit which was basically an upgrade of a head, breather, steering post and coupler, seat post, adjustment of rpm"s, and a fresh paint job. If the tractor wasn"t on rubber tires, then they converted it. I have three f-12"s that were upgraded this way. The locak dealer charged $225 for the upgrade in 1942; $295 including an engine rebuild. That less than half of a new tractor and you got a refreshed old faithful tractor back. Besides, anyone who went through the depression and then in a war, didn"t have or want to spend money to buy a new one.
