I'm in process of restoring my 1958 Farmall 240 tractor and the generator is missing the Delco Remy ID tag. I have obtained a blank one and want to have the model and serial no's. engraved on the new tag and attached to the generator. The starter has an original ID tag so I have access to the font and size. I know the Delco generator model no. from my parts catalog but have no idea as to a serial no. I believe I recall reading somewhere (and most likely on this forum) the serial no. is a code for the month, day and year of manufacture by Delco. Can anyone confirm this or provide any detail as to how the serial no. was derived. Thanks for your comments to this thread and your assistance to my restoration efforts, Hal.
