Your tractor is a red one. I have one of these 1936 red F-20's myself. My F-20 has a serial number of FA 61--- . I would give you the whole number but I don't want to post it in here. You never know who might pick the number up and report it stolen. lol Anyway your serial number is newer than mine which makes it manufactured after mine which makes it red. I picked my tractor up about 20 years ago and it came from the neighborhood and I knew the previous 2 owners and I know for a fact that my tractor was never repainted tell I done so in 1993/4. While cleaning it up to repaint I found red paint under the grease and inside the air cleaner and things. I later veryfied this by learning the serial number of the last grey tractor released. However I don't remember this number. There is no real good way to figure out what month your tractor was made. Is what I done was looked at the serial numbers for the year and seen what the last grey tractor serial number was and estimated by 3 months of manufacturing and approximately placed my serial number in that sequence and I thought my tractor was made in either Oct or Nov. Just going by that I would say yours would be Nov or Dec. I would like to find out a little more on this myself. I am just assuming this, but I think the serial number listing for the year goes from Jan. 1 tell Dec. 31 for like 1936. But didn't they do like today's manufactures and issue next years model like in Aug. or Sept. or Oct. See that might make a 1936 red F-20 actually a 1937 model even though it was made in 1936 and falls under the Jan. 1 to Dec. 31 serial number grouping. Well anyway I hoped I helped and I plan on coming back to read some of the other follow ups.
