I have a F-20 serial number TA135327 I have been told these were manufactured in 1934 using a F-20 motor and transmission and rear end from left over regular rear ends about 630 were made. Does anyone no any thing more about them?
 
What style of front end do you have? Exposed gear, duck-bill, or worm gear? Would you mind posting a picture? Thanks

It is a duck bill I found a posting a year or so ago saying that the TA serial number tractors were number with serial numbers 135000 to 135661 the motor looks like a early F-20 it has a 4 speed transmission I am hopping to get it going this year our club the Twin Rivers Old Iron Association is hosting the South Dakota chapter of the IH collectors club at or fall show. The tractor is pretty well complete.
 
You are correct on build #s and yes they used left over countershaft housings from the farmall regulars. IH did not waste any parts so in late 1933 they made the decision to use up leftover wide tread housings. It is a very desirable piece to any F series collector for there collection. There are a few guys that have them including myself and kinda hard to find but not extremely rare but like I said very desirable. Great find and a picture or two would be great.

I'll try and get a picture I found it on a sale I was not planning on going to but a friend wanted to look at a mower so we went the day before I did not know what it was at the time but the motor and controls were to old for the serial number. I first thought it was a late regular. The serial number would have had to be a 1939 but the duck bill and motor were to old.
