Should b a tag on the seat uprights that has the serial number on it and with that you can then go to the left of this page under research and info the Farmall then A and find where that number fit in. If the tag is missing there is a number on the left side of the block up front that should be the serial number also. That is if I remember right as to where it is been a few years since I looked for one
 
I see a W(in your pic) don't recall what year that is.

Find more like this one that I boxed in the letter is a coded year

for engine serial number

hope this helps.
 
The tractor is a Farmall A, built from 1939 through 1947. But that is not the original engine, the engine number won't tell you anything about the tractor. It is a Super A engine block. The cylinder head has a casting date code 5-24-W, which is May 24, 1951. It and the block are probably from the same donor. It looks like some external engine parts could have been transferred from the original engine (oil filter housing, magneto). That filter housing was only used through serial 97938 (early 1944). It has the early style hood fasteners, only used through serial 41329 (end of 1940). The bell housing has been changed. That version wasn't used until at least mid 1944. That looks like it may hsve the remains of a early style steering wheel, hard to tell.

Your best bet on narrowing to down any more is by doing as Cory said. Look for more date codes and check the magneto serial number. Magnetos are easy to change, so may not tell you anything either.
 
It is a Farmall A, made from 1939 to 1947. It looks like it has a Super A or C block, which would be from 1948 on.

Judging from the hood fasteners, it could be either a 1939 or 1940 Farmall A, but it has a later block.
