I was talking with a friend about his 1937 F12. Could you get them with an electric starter? If not could you put one on an F12.

My experience is with letter series tractors. So I know very little about the F series or the number series. Any recommendations on books or internet sites where I might learn more about Farmalls before and after the letter series?

It is easy to put one on if you dont mind getting away from being original. Just get a starter and the stamped ring gear assy and mount to the driveshaft behind the clutch hide the battery and realy isnt too noticable. Have seen a couple of them done that way. Owner says its better than a broken arm trying to hand crank at his age. Mite save a lot of Dr. bills

The best books I've found for early Farmall reference is the Photo Archive series. They only have pictures and very little written information. Most of the recent books that have pictures of restorations have a lot of flaws as far as showing how the tractors actually were. I am not a purist but when I restore I like to know what I am shooting for as apposed to what someone else decided to settle on. I have seen starters on F-12 but I don't believe any came from the factory that way.
