Let's try to set the record straight here. It appears to be a 1938 F-12. Reason is the valve cover has three studs through the top (first photo). The brake handles on the F-12 were originally short and have had pipe extensions added (first and second photo). It is a dual fueled tractor meaning it started on gasoline and then was switched over to distillate. Notice the fuel tank cap under the steering shaft behind the fuel tank. Next in the first photo there is no crankcase breather in the valve cover, this was added for the F-14. Notice the two holes in the radiator. The large one on the top is for the radiator cap. That's where you added water. There is also a hole on the top at the front. That is for the air cleaner (missing) that connects to the carburetor for filtered air. This is for an oil bath cleaner. In both photos that is a "farmer" modification to the steering. When the F-12 was modified to the F-14 the steering wheel shaft/wheel was raised, as was the seat. The factory modification was to add a flexible coupling just behind the round steering housing. This tractor still has the original F-12 seat. In the first photo, there is a can covering up the fuel tank vent that is right in front of the main fuel tank on top of the hood. And yes, until about November 1936, the paint color was gray. It then was switched over to red. Just a little bit of trivia to satisfy your curiosity.
