what do these letters and nos. mean F.A.A.20899S.N.Also this tractor had I guess add on hydrolics ,what kind of metal was the hyd. tank made of looked shiney almost like fiberglass.The hyd. rare ?
 
FAA is simply the designation for a Farmall A, nothing more. 20899 means it was built in 1940 -- no factory hydraulics. An option was an exhaust lift. True hyd were offered when the Super A appeared in late 1947, it would have a 6 digit serial. The tank is fairly thick sheet metal, not fiberglass unless someone had one made.
 
thanks ,I forgot to include it had a hyd. pump that mounted above gen. that worked off gen. belt plumbed into pnumatic cylinder,does this make since ? cylinder mounted vertical left side of radiator no exhaust plumbing homemade I guess? thanks for info.Tuck
 
If it is a pump running off the generator belt it is homemade. However the cylinder mounted vertical on the left front sounds like it is the exhaust cylinder. The exhaust cylinder would be very large both long and in diameter with very little resemblence to a hydraulic cylinder. I have not seen an exhaust lift in about 60+ years when I was 12. If Gene Bender sees this he will clarify, he has several.
 
You have a late model A Farmall. They did not come with factory hy systems till that model was replaced with the SA.
