Farmall 140 or International 140 ???

37110 could be quite different. Is there anything left of the old decals? Even right down to model badge. Starting in 68 all IH deacals had a major change, gone was the word McCormick, just under Farmall or International. From then on the major side hood decal became International on all IH tractors. Farmalls models had the word Farmall in 1" high letters on the model badge. All US built tractors except the 140 had a grill change, going from the 06 type grill to the 56 type grill. It is unclear exactly what serial number the change was made on 140 decals. Some say late 67 while others say mid 68. I have seen late 67 models with new type decals and I've seen a couple of early 68 with old type decals. I suspect with repaints, some have had the wrong decals applied.

If you want to get it excatly right, any trace of the old decals would be very helpful, especially if your serial number is 37110. I would like to know anything you find myself. Your 140 is amoung the last 200 built in 67, assuming 37110 is correct.

If you want to sort out which serial number is correct, go to the casting date codes. Each casting on tractor has one, and they are day, month and year with what looks like a round head, blade type screw between each. Older Farmalls used letters for the year, but your 140 should be all numbers. In the case you have letters Z is 1954, A is 55, B is 56, etc. An original tractor should have all date codes within couple months of each other, and are probably 1-3 months before tractor was actually built. If you have a casting date code off by more than 3 months, almost certain that casting has been replaced somewhere in the life of the tractor.

On one of my 140's the axle is round and on the other it is diamond. Neither has a foot throttle.

I think they both have "International" on them. I have never checked the serial numbers to see when they were made. Like you, I have gotten so use to seeing them I would have to double check to make sure I am right.

Raining at the moment but Ill make it to the farm this morning some time and check it out and get back to yall.

Serial # 36042J has a diamond axle and no foot throttle. It has "International" with the slanted ends on the decal. 1968 year model.

Serial # 66495J has a round axle and no foot throttle. It has "International" with the slanted ends on the decal. 1976 year model.

I guess my Super A did all the work for 20 years until the 140 came along... A cousin of mine was cultivating roses in sand and the Super A kept jumping off the rows and he got really upset. My father came out there to check on him and he told him about the trouble. My father went and bought a new 140 and carried it to him. My cousin was so happy he said he would have worked for free it was such an improvement.

They just have "140" in rather large letters.

Theres nothing on there that says "Farmall".

Back to your serial number, definitely not 27111. Two of your casting date codes, K are 1965, both May. The serial number 37111, would indicate amoung the last 200 tractors built in 1967. Very uncommon for a casting to be cast that far ahead of production. What are the casting date codes for the torque tube and engine block. If they are the same aprox. date as transmission and hydraulic, I'd be double checking that 37111 serial number. 31111 or 32111 would sound more reasonable.
