| Nice looking tractors, I'm a sucker for the unstyled WC's. What size rear tires on that one and what is the lever for mounted on the frame in front of the mechanical lift? |

Where does the CA stencil on the left side of the radiator go? Should it be a little higher so it is not behind the steering rod? On my CA I have it a little higher but still should have been higher. The right side there is no obstruction so it doesn't matter, but I think they should be same on both sides. |

| lonnie , your list looks pretty long to me.Don this WC is up graded to be user friendly. ( elect start, alternator, & distributor.)Dave , I bet you did have a CA like that before.Jim, that is a D17 in the background, but sorry it has a JD disc behind it. nobody has come up with a AC disc for me yet. JimND, the wife & I took them for a ride yesterday over to the neighbors & she fell in love with the CA. Dave watch it , that case backhoe isn't really that bad, being I don't have a hoe for my I-40. |

WOW!!! Two very nice tractors. Also, a starter on a beautiful flattop WC. Not original equipment by a long shot but great to have.
That is a very late CA tractor since you have a mounted traction booster guage. They did not come out to very late in the model run.
Good Luck!

| Bill it's a 1951 so I think the snap couple and traction booster must of been added at a later date. |

NICE looking pair, although the WC is purdier. : ) What's the serial number on that CA. It doesn't have the right air cleaner for a 51 either. Is the electrical box on the WC handy in that position? I thought of putting mine on the left side of that post?? ------------- http://www.ae-ta.com" rel="nofollow - http://www.ae-ta.com Lena 1935 WC12xxx, Willie 1951 CA6xx Dad bought new, 1954WD45 PS, 1960 D17 NF |

If I'm thinking right, isn't that a 37 wc? ------------- wd with a freeman model 90 trip loader, wd45, 38 unstylled wc, b 10 garden tractor and 2-14 ac trip plow. grandpa has a 56 wd45. wd. allis chalmers snap coupler blade and 3 bottom snap coupler plow |

| Ctucker, the CA is serial #9764 with eng# E157317GA, think it should be a 1951. acwdwcman , the serial # on the WC is 25402 wich makes it a 36 according to my book. I don't really know the difference between the 36 & 37 as far as looking at them. but I'm sure alot of changes could have been made in 60 to 75 yrs on both tractors. |

| I took a second look at the air cleaner & it is different than my 1950 CA & my 1952. they both have an air cleaner like a b or c . |

That would be a 1951 tractor number unless you can't see the 1 in front of the rest. Tractor number should be CAxxxx . If it had a 1 in front, it would match your 1952 engine number which should be CE157317G. I don't know when the air cleaner was changed but it might be correct for a late 52 engine which you apparently have. When was the SC available? I always thought 1953. ??? Maybe you have a late 52 original with one of the first SC set ups???
