Yet another source... the Operation & Maintenance Instruction book says look here (top of the drawbar mount) for s/n. Can almost see the tag where your battery cable ground lands.
i have one i found all the numbers but the last one do you have a better pic of location thanksSUCCESS!! The number was exactly where Old Magnet suggested in post #10 (RH side, top of draw bar mount). Serial number on the plate there is 42A499
So that makes it an early 'F'? '59 or '60?
The pictures posted by Ironman3406 were quite helpful. I guess mine is a direct start conversion. I see some disconnected lever connections in the starter area. Mine has that same orange color under a layer of yellow.
Time to order manuals. Does anyone have any specific recommendations for a source for manuals? Are they all about the same?
Thanks,
Bob

"I also joined a year ago. had been on here a couple of times as a non-member and found the info very helpful so I got a one year subscription (not very expensive at all) to try it out. I really like all the resources on here so I just got a three year. I think its a very small price for what you can get out of this site."
