How many industrial A tractors were built? Other than the axle, brace and foot throttle what is different? Just picked one up yesterday

Thanks for the post, have never saw an industrial A.
Not sure if this list includes or applies to industrial A's or not.
None shown in 43, was this due to WWII efforts? Don't remember where I got this list, probably here!

My 1939 Farmall A is - FAA 4618

Year Starting Serial #
1939 501
1940 6744
1941 41500
1942 80739
1944 93690
1945 113218
1946 146700
1947 182964

All we ever had 1 AI, and I dont recall ever needing a part that was specific to it. I dont think the numbers were kept separate, so I dont think theres a way to know how many were built.

When my dad worked for the city, their vacant lot and storage areas mower was an A with the foot throttle and a belly mounted sickle mower. Wish we would have bought it when it went up for sale. I believe it was a former highway department tractor and looked about new. I think it sold in the mid 90s.

That double bent round bar under the oil filter that supports the front axle is unique to the square axle A's.

(quoted from post at 23:56:05 05/15/23) That double bent round bar under the oil filter that supports the front axle is unique to the square axle A's.

which includes the International A and the Farmall AV (and the later model equivalents).
