The issue to me is does it make the tractor more valuable? I'm generally opposed to replacement tags. There's not a thing on this earth to keep someone from making up a tag and saying they have Farmall H #501, the first one made. That, to me, is wrong. Works well until the real #501 shows up.
If someone has a tractor, like an A or B/BN for example, where the motor number matched the chassis number, and all the casting dates were in line with the motor serial number, suggesting, but only suggesting, that it's the original motor, then maybe that would justify having a plate made up with the chassis number to match the motor.
But I don't like it being done with tractors like a SuperC where the chassis and motor numbers are different. If the owner wants the plate for appearance's sake, and can do enough research to get to a range of numbers, it's my feeling that the plate should be made up with the numbers that can be confirmed and Xs stamped for those that can't.

A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
