farmall 200

[Wingswd]

I picked up a nice 200 for a great price. It has no serial tag. I'm generally an orange guy so I'm not very familiar with these. Would the serial # be any where else on this tractor?

It should have originaly been riveted to the clutch housing.

Did not see it what side? And is that the only place?

i think next to the oil cup for the breather on the
bell housing

I could be wrong, but as far as I know, if the rivited tag from
the bell housing is gone, there is no other place to find the
tractor serial number.

I don't have or know of a local Farmall 200 so I can't really look at one for you but I do have a Super C which is the previous model of that line. On my Super C the serial number plate is on the right hand (brake pedal) side standing behind the tractor on the seat base/tool box. The place the other folks are suggesting it might be in on the left (clutch) side of the bell housing which is where they are located on the H and M tractors. You should at least be able to find the four drilled rivet holes where it originally was located. The holes will be spaced about 1 1/2" apart vertically and 4" horizontally and about 1/8" in diameter. Hope this helps, Hal.

The name plate should be on the clutch housing on the left side kind of above the centerline. If it is gone there is only one way to establish the serial number and it is a wild chance (other than sales records). There is a motor number stamped on a flat on the right side of the motor just above the distributor in front of the Number 1 plug almost behind the throttle rod. It would not be the same as the chassis serial number but it would tell you the approximate date of manufacture. The only cross reference between motor number and serial number was recorded one day a month for a single unit of each model produced. If your tractor was one of the recorded units you would have your serial number. The motor numbers ran consecutively for each motor regardless of model. The serial numbers ran consecutively for each model. If you trace out the motor number you should be able to establish the month of production but unless yours was one of the recorded units you will not be able to establish the serial number. The only other way would be to know the original owner and see if records exist at a dealership or in family possession that indicate the serial number at sale. FYI I have a 200 with no serial number.

Not that hard look for a casting code on the deck plate or bell housing only made them for three years. the first number will be the month the next will be the day and the third will be a letter witch will be z for 1954 a for 1955 or b for 1956 best you can do at this point.
