Tim,
M12H was built in Memphis. Numbers built by years: 1945, 1; 1946, 0; 1947, 175 (made in Memphis but prior to Memphis plant dedication in April 1948); 1948, 1120; 1949, 1459; 1950, 667; 1951, 2146; 1952, 1845; and 1953, there were 150 sold in addition to M120 models. There were about 152 pickers made prior to the M12H and the first serial number was 501. Early picker serial numbers were consecutive by all records I found at WHS. I have picker serial numbers in a spreadsheet. The chassis serial number under the operators platform and the row unit serial number should be the same if the row units have not been swapped. If the tractor was made for the picker it will have a CH in the serial number and tractor year will be same as picker. Some tractors were a few years old and converted to pickers by a dealer or the Memphis factory. Most M12H pickers were single fan models; some were modified to dual fans. The M12H began and ended as an aluminum housing over the row unit; earlier units had cast iron covers with limited experimentation with cast aluminum as early as 1942. The M 120 had a steel plate cover. I have a manual I can scan for you. The M 120 manual is very similar. I have several pickers and some parts if you need something. Where are you located?

Today's Featured Article - Tractor Traction - by Chris Pratt. Our first bout with traction problems came when cultivatin with our Massey-Harris Pony. Up till then, this tractor had been running a corn grinder and pulling a trailer. It had new unfilled rear tires and no wheel weights. The garden was already sprouting when we hooked up the mid-mount shovel cultivators to the Pony. The seed bed was soft enough that the rear end would spin and slowly work its way to the downhill side of the gardens slight incline. From this, we learned our lesson sinc
