Only the very early F20s and F30s had this type of steering gear cover. [Reply]  [No Email]

This is the first time I hear anything about a duckbill. What do they look like. Inquiring minds want to know. Patrick [Feeling green] '49M [Reply]  [No Email]

There was 661 TA series 20s. The TA comes using the Regular serial number but started at 135,000. One recently sold for $5900. They did not use F30 parts on them. An F30 is a differnt machine. Not sure on Duckbill F20 production numbers. [Reply]  [No Email]

The TAs were factory built using the F20, F30 front half, and the Farmall Regular rear half. [Reply]  [No Email]
