Help identifying a IH hood

[David Beasley]

Hello,
A buddy picked up a hood for me thinking it would fit my IH 240 Utility. Needless to say, it didnt. I would like to sell or trade it but I need to figure out what it fits.
It measures 36 and 3/8 inches and has one hole on the right side from the operators perspective. I'm thinking it fits a 404 or a 444 but I'm not sure. I wish I could post a pic of it but I'm too techno-challanged.
Thanks for your help,
David
Oh, The hood is the same style as the 240,340 up thru the 600 series in the late 50s to the mid 60s.

I could sure use a pair of the side panels for my 240U. I think they are the same on the F-240 and maybe even the F and U 340s.
Good luck finding a hood for yours.

IH Fan,
There are reproduction skirts on ebay right now. They are reasonably priced considering what I paid for the used ones I found. An ebayer named greenbackin has a 340 hood and cowl side panels right now. I'm pretty sure the 340 hood is shorter than the 240.
I have a hood for mine but I have decided I want to go with a Farmall vertical exhaust given the problems presented by the horizontal style. I REALLY hate the idea of cutting a hole in it since I patched the hole that the previous owner made using dynamite and channel locks to make one!
