Looking for info on Farmall model AV (I think)

Hello everyone,

My father-in-law has an old Farmall tractor and
I've been trying to find a service manual for it
for him. It's a model FAAV we think. The plate
has the "FAA" on it in raised letters followed
by a stamped letter "V" infilled with red paint.
Serial number is 276031. Other information which
may be helpful is that the machine was made in
Chicago, there is no dipstick, the oil pan has two
pet cock on it for checking the oil level, rear
tires are on 36" rims, two independent two-point
implement lifts (one on the rear and one on the
belly) and finally the machine has a wide front
end.

Does anyone know when this tractor was made? He
thinks it may have been in 1931.

Is this tractor a Farmall model AV? What does the
V stand for? What's the difference between and "A",
"AV" and "Super AV"?

Last but not least, where is a good place to find
a service manual for this tractor? I found a site
online, www.batescorp.com, which has a bunch of
manuals including one for the model "A" but
doesn't list one specificly for the model "AV".
Is the model "AV" close enough to the "A" such
that the manuals would be same?

Sorry for all the questions but I know very little
about tractors.

Regards,
Drew Rogge
