There is alot of confusion being posted here. IH actually made 2 "one Millionth" Farmall tractors.
The first one (see link below) was the 1 Millionth FARMALL series (A-B-C-H-M) that was made. This tractor counted ALL of the Farmall models made both in Rock Island and Chicago. This does not have any number or marking on the hood and the serial number and whereabouts of this tractor are unknown to me. This was made in 1947-48.
The second one was made in 1951?. It too was an M, but this tractor marked the 1 Millionth tractor made at the FARMALL WORKS factory alone. The Farmalls made in Chicago and Louisville along with all of them made overseas WERE NOT included in this count.
The second one had the 1,000,000 number decal in white affixed to the side of the hood. There is a story about this in Harvester World/Tractor Farming. It was sold new by the IH dealer in Manilus, IL. Today this dealership building is the home of KORY wagon mfg.
