Paul, I bought two a's that were both ready for the scrap heap and built one from the two. The 1940 orginally had the tourque tube without the starter hole. I know that mine wont win any awards for originality beacause I used the tourque tube from the other tractor do that I could have electric start.But I have been told that electric start and lights were available as an option in 1940, So will any one know the difference ? Out of the two a's that I bought, both had cracked blocks after removing the head, so the block serial doesent match.My intent is for the tractor to look like a brand new one, The originality end of a restoration would be almost impossibal in my opinion, Over that long of a time period rust takes a serious toll on sheet metal parts and aftermarket is the only way to make it look good.
