I though some of you might like to see how we do trying to breath life back into the M I bought at auction last Sunday. This is serial number FBK 46982. Am I correct in thinking that makes it a 1941? Be glad to hear your tips and hints as we go. We got the tractor home in nonrunning condition with one stuck wheel.
