Tractor Seat - Is this original Farmall seat?

SweetFeet · Dec 12, 2011

Wondering if this seat is an orginial Farmall seat? Was told this is for a FA Regular or F20. Is that correct? *Cowman, I had posted a photo of our current seat - which you thought was an Emerson with oval slots... but you said Farmall tractor seats are smaller and had round holes. Thanks for any help. Have a great day!

It is not right for the late F-20 as our 1939 has different seat. Unless ours is not original. Now you got me wondering.

Guess, I should have been more specific, (was told by its owner that it was for either a Regular or F20)... but I am actually wondering if would be the correct original seat for a 1931 FA Regular. Cowman had said the Farmall tractor seats have a round hole and are smaller seats -- the seat that came on our Regular is a larger seat and has oblong/tear shaped holes. Just wondering if this is the correct type. Thanks.

I have a 1931 Farmall Regular and looking at your photo, mine looks pretty much the same. I didn't measure it,but if you would like I could measure it tomorrow.

I got a chance to measure the seat on mine and it measures 18" wide and 14" front to back. But mine don't have any holes in the pan except the mounting bolt hole. I really believe this seat is the one that came on as I have owned it for about 28 years and I got it from the original owner.

Yup. That's the F12 F20 F30 seat. I'll get you a pic of the Regular / 10-20 seat.

You need a copy of Todd Markle's Originality Guide
Book, should be on Amazon too

Thanks everyone - NB Cowman, MtMan and Flying Belgian!
Cowman - if you could reply with a photo of a Regular seat, that would be great! And yes... need to bite the bullet and purchase Todd Markle's Originality Guide. Been looking at samples from the book - guess it's time to buy it - though my more frugal "other/better half" would rather not spend the money.
Thanks again.

MtMan, is your '31 Regular on full steel with the V-type lugs on back wheels? Did you repaint the tractor when restoring it? If yes, I would love a reply with a photo if you have one. Looking for a fully restored photo on the same steel wheels as ours -- to show the contrast of what ours would have looked like from the factory (because we will be leaving her rusty). P.S. I don't need a seat measurement as I don't have access to measure the seat in the photo above. Thanks.

Ordered the book last night. Can't wait for it to arrive!!! As always - thanks for all your help, NB Cowman.
