102 GS?

I can't find the serial number, but it's got a six-cylinder flathead engine, and what I'm pretty sure is "102 GS" on the hood.

to further confuse me, I gather there is actually TWO versions of the same model: A junior, and a Senior. what is the difference of the two?

I take it the GS indicates it's a gas engine?

Where is the serial number on these tractors? There is a plate on the left side of the engine, but it's too faded to read anything.

What are the production years for the 102?

And finally, how good a tractor is it? Are there any weak points I should look out for while restoring it? Me and Dad may use this tractor for baling.

I'll run the serial number by here if I find it.

Thanks!

The 101 Jr and 102 Jr's were four cylinder models.

The serial number plate was originally on the left side of the tractor, down on the tub frame near where the clutch would be. More than likely gone. On top of the trans housing, behind the clutch pedal just to the front of the gear box cover, you'll will find the serial number stamped in the casting. You may have to do some scraping, but it's there. You can check the year by going to Tractor Data. com, or to the left column under Research and Info. I restored a 101 Senior Standard. Tough tractors, and you can't seem to hurt those Continental engines. I left my email open if you would like me to send a picture of my restored Senior...
