Looks like a 185 but it has a 184 engine in it. Swap maybe? Owner didn't know. I was looking to pick it up if it's cheap enough.

From what I've read the 185 had a starter/generator and the 184 had a separate starter and alternator. Yes, they should both be C-60's

The owner is looking for a serial number. I suppose it is possible to swap a 185 engine in a 184 or put 185 sheet metal on a 184.
Just planning on playing with it if I can get it in the $300 range.

ANYTHING under a grand would be a steal!

Charlie- Any guess on what it is? I'm guessing a 185 with a 184 engine.

Beats me without a serial number which would be on the left side while setting on the tractor just behind the radiator frame on the flat part of the tractor frame.
Here's a pic of my old 154 that had red paint under the yellow that turned out to be a 184 with a conversion back to a S/G.
And yes IH offered a conversion kit because the alternators they supplied from Delco had a bad batch and Delco wouldn't fix the problem.

Guess I'll wait to hear back from the guy on a serial number.
Serial number tag is missing. Charlie, you say the tractor in your picture was a 184. I thought all 184's had the flatter front ends.

What you have to understand about loboys is this.
Everything pretty much interchanged and guys put what they could find. I've seen many parts changed out over the years on the Yahoo loboy group.

I found out today that a neighbor of mine has an older IH tractor. Does anyone know what IH model this tractor is:
If the tractor is unidentifiable from the picture, what questions do I need to ask when I go see him?

Jeremiah Chamberlin (Jchamberlin),
Its either a 240 or 340 farmall.

Jeremiah, I agree with Keith that it's either a 240 or a 340. It appears that the white side panels have been removed. Any chance you can email me the original high resolution photo so I can get a better look?

460D or 560D with the side sheets removed and the rear hood section removed.
Look closely at the length (wheelbase) and the steering wheel and pedestal.....240/340 had a flat wheel, 460/560 more vertical and on a pedestal. Also note the air cleaner, and dual fuel filter on lower rear of engine. Also has frame rails.
