Keith, those are actually part numbers for the castings. On the older tractors, those part numbers were usually four or five digits followed by a letter or two, usually starting with a D. Later they ran to six digits, most often beginning with a 3, followed by R and one or two digits. The chassis serial number on an A of any vintage can be found on a plate mounted under the seat on the inside of the left-hand seat support bracket. If that plate is missing or illegible, the engine serial number is stamped on a flat spot on the block, above the mag or distributor, just under the #1 plug. For tractors with a number under 200000 (assembled in Chicago), these numbers will match if the block hasn't been replaced over time. Numbers above that were assembled in t the Louisville plant, where the numbers didn't usually match, but weren't terribly far apart. You might have to do a little scraping to uncover the engine number. In Chicago, anyway, they were stamped by hand and weren't always cut real deep.
