What year is this tractor? Some books say 42, some 43. Looking at the tractor register it would be a 42. But by 2 cylinder it would be a 43. Archives is very slow to answer any letters.

Juat to let everyone know i got back the build date of the tractor. 9/04/42. Which would make her a 1943!

Well, it gets more interesting all the time. I've looked at three sources of information, and here is what I found.

"John Deere Tractors - 1918-1976" (the "Brown Book") gives the same information that can be found on the link on this page. 1942 started with 514127 and 1943 started with 523133, so that would make your tractor a 1942 model.

On the other hand, "John Deere Tractors - 1918-1994 (the "Gray Book") states that the 1943 models started with 520004. This information agrees with what J. R. Hobbs has in his Green Magazine article on the early styled A tractors.

I had read/heard/whatever that there were some errors in the "Brown Book" and that they were corrected in the "Gray Book".

Take your pick, but I think your tractor would be a '43 model, based on what Hobbs has to say and what the "Gray Book" says.

If you go to the serial Numbers link to the left you can check it out. I took a look and I would say it is a 42 by the serial numbers on this page.
