First, most of the regulars are aware I have been in a nationwide hunt for a Farmall 240 battery cover for a new tractor I've purchased and will be starting it's restoration later this year. Someone who is unknown to me (I think so anyway) called the wife a couple of days ago and told her to watch for the mail on Friday. She didn't catch the name as she thought it would just be another tractor guy who would leave a phone number for me to call later. Well guess what, in today's mail was a box from the state of Wisconsin and inside was a Farmall 240 battery cover - and get this, not just a cover but that impossible to find original shift pattern plate riveted on the cover.
