I want to say that the 1600 in the center fold was restored by doug mitchell of fulton michigan.that somehow was not mentioned. I sold it to doug in 2008,and he sold it back to me in 2012.I will take credit for the plow, but doug gets the credit for the 1600 utility.he has been a good friend,and I want you to know that.

I'm glad you posted. I wanted to ask you about the shift pattern decal. Is that the right pattern on a utility? My 1600 Row Crop has a plate down by the tilt pedal and the pattern is opposite what that decal shows. The high gears are at the top.
That's the same decal that came with the ones for my 1550,but that isn't right for that one either. I ended up drilling a couple of small holes in the dash and using the plate from a parts 1600 on it.
I think that pattern is the same as a Super 55 and 550.

That shift pattern with the slow gears on top is the same on my 1550. 1968 row crop

the decal is an extra ! it has the lower metal pattern plate. 1600 utilitys have the low gears on top. the 1600 standard and row crop have the high gears on top.now a 1550 utility and standard have the low gears on top and a 1550 row crop has the high gears on top .and yes a 550 has the low gears on top, BUT the H patterns are opposite ,the reverse is on the left for a 550, and right for a 1600. just take a razor blade and cut the shift decal in half to make it correct for a row crop.
