Is a replacement screen for air intake available? Mine is starting to rust, and has a small hole starting. It is made of heavier gauge mesh than window screening, or I would just make one.
 

Thanks.

After sanding and cleaning various small parts yellow paint was found under gray. Were these tractors yellow between 1952 -to 1954?
 
no - they were gray on grey - but I understand Harry would paint them any color you wanted - yellow indicates an 'industrial' application - highway tractor - yard tractor - if there is no gray under the yellow they were ordered for a specific application -

I poked around the parts bin - I have a screen, yours for $20 delivered, it's even yellow - but if I were you, I'd go to a good hardware and get a small piece of 'hardware cloth', 1/8", which is what the screen is made of and fix your intake -

So original screen is 1/8th inch hardware cloth. My screen is much finer than that close to bug screening used on a house, but of a much heavier gauge. I noticed the linked dash board also had the same 1/8th inch screen.

Interesting yellow was an industrial model. I have seen other off color tractors on RFD TV's "Classic Tractor Fever" show. The only thing I know about my tractor is it is a 1953. My brother-in-law's father purchased it second hand sometime in the 70's in the Farmington Maine area... It's mostly boondocks, trees and hills over there. Some small farms after WWII, now all mostly gone now.
