I have heard MANY comments before. Farmall would run out all of it's inventory of the older style parts untill they made the "running change" into the newer parts.(Like some Super Ms had teardrop headlights,and then changed into the "pancake" style.I would think this would be hard to determine by a serial number break myself?????) This would account for Super Ms having batterys under the seats with belly pumps????? Maybe they ran out of the battery boxes under the fuel tanks BEFORE the ran out of belly pumps,hence some tractors haveing belly pumps AND batterys under the seat????
I know I am "rambling" here,but with this kind of production system,you might se ALL KINDS of Super Ms with "odd ball" combinations of newer and older parts installed by IH. Then throw in the custom "customer ordered" options(like "hydraulics delete")and you have the opportunity to have some really "odd duck,one off" tractors being built sometimes.
I know,probably TO intense about the subject matter,but I think it is cool! I love the entire M family all the way thru the 450s.I think they were the most reliable work horses ever built.
