Based on what I have learned about Farmall Regulars and F20 tractors from my husband, other YT folks, books and manuals (only over the last two years though)...
It looks like our F20. Would be fun to get it running… and would look especially cool if kept rusty – but If you have to paint it, then you have to paint it.
Looks to be in original condition to me… the factory cast iron wheel hubs point to an F-20 (though wheels can/could be switched over time.
Look at the bottom side of the rear axle housing...
[b]If it DOES HAVE bolt holes there for mounting a PTO standardizer (a.k.a PTO extension) - then it is an F20. The Regular did not have those holes as they were produced with short PTO systems... though that extension could be added as an after-market item. But on Regulars, they had to be mounted using a triangular bracket between the PTO mounting-frame and the rear-end of the tractor...actually utilizing the bolts for the rear-end cover.
Look at the tool box (this is where serial tags were affixed on Regulars AND F20’s). Even if the tag is missing… it will still provide a clue: Regular tags were attached using only 2 rivets – F20 tags were attached using 4 rivets. So a Regular should only have two holes in the tool box – while and F20 will have 4 holes.
Carburetor on a Regular is brass… and looks like a large brass snail.
An EARLY Regular CAN have an upright exhaust - some early experimental models were made that way… later Regulars exhausted out the bottom and have the cast iron “potato muffler”.
