You gotta remember that there was no such thing as the internet, and computerized record keeping was just a pipe dream in 1948. It's not like you can run a CARFAX on your tractor...

Records were paper, and a lot of IH dealers have closed since 1948. Odds are the original dealer is gone, along with the paperwork.

Your only shot is to trace the tractor through its previous owners, and hope the original owner is still around AND either has the paper work or a good story to tell you.
