I'm 51 years old and loved farm tractors when I was a kid. I recently found a photo taken of me in May of 1952 sitting on a red IH tractor, which appears to be just about new in the photo. I NEED a tractor like this (for no other purpose than to have it), but I'm not sure what it is. It's fairly small, with the steering wheel and brake and clutch pedals off-set to the right. The back of the hood (the gas tank, I think(?)) is sort of oval - there is no shroud that extends down toward the frame. There is a lever mounted on the left hand side of the steering column support, which may be the throttle. On the rear of the steering column support there is an oval-shaped box, which I believe housed some sort of guage or guages. Moving from rear to front on the hood there is what appears to be a gas tank filler cap, then an air cleaner, then the exhaust stack. Although the front wheels are not visible in the photo, I suspect they were spaced far apart. The seat is not a bucket, but rather a flat, rectangularly shaped bottom cushion and a back rest, with bare metal "arm rests." (The seat may not be original.) The logo on the side of the hood has the "IH" symbol followed by "Farmall," with the word McCormack written in smaller letters above "Farmall." If anyone has any idea what this tractor might be, I'd sure appreciate the information. Many thanks!

Fortunately when you step into your shop and make that jump 50 years back in time to work with your old tractor, this concept goes out the window. Even so, when it comes to the charging system, people quickly revert to this idea and start replacing the major components one at a time until it works. The reason you don't find any decals in your replacement set wit
