Thomas,
the serial number you are looking for will be stamped in the top of the frame rail on the right side of the tractor just forward of the bell housing. the stamping will not be very deep and may be covered with multiple coats of paint---the number will probably be something like 7V222 or something like that. In all probability, the first number will be a 6 or a 7 which will be followed by a V and then three digits. My guess is that your tractor is a Minneapolis Moline "V" model. Although M/M acquired B F Avery, they continued to make the "V" for a time and all of those units had B.F. Avery on many of the stamped parts like rear ends. Post your serial number and we'll help you find its year of mfg. Nice tractor with some of the hard to find parts still intact!

In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
