I recently bought a farmall a with woods belly mower. The man said the water pump was bad on, I did question him if it was truly an A. I found several unique features that many of you have helped to explain. The serial tag doesn't meantion farmall but does say international first box says A second box says FAA third box 162418, 1540 rpm. It does appear to be a water pump leaking out the end shaft, it has the squared axle with the bell housing support. But it also has the hydraulic pump blanked off with a plate. So I ask do I have a A, AI, SUPER A, SUPER AI or just a pile of poop? What documentation do I want?
 
Curious I drove to Burches tractor store in Burlington NC.
After showing him my photos, he showed me all the different pieces and parts I have. He truly is amazing to simply I D parts by sight.
Bottom line a pile of poop well might be overstated more like hybrid, it is an A at least the back half, the engine is a 140, thus the hydraulics. The axle well it could have come about several ways for now we won't kick. At least now I know what and where documentation I need A, AI and 140.
I appreciate everyone help to guide me in the right direction and can't wait to put it all together. Thanks.
