I was over at <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.oliverinformation.com/serials.html">http://www.oliverinformation.com/serials.html</a><!-- m --> trying to decifer what year my mother-in-laws tractor was and now I&#039;m slightly puzzled.  The serial number that&#039;s on the dash plaque is 0235-142314, which according to the chart makes it an 88 Row Crop built in 1952.  I was under the impression that is was a super 88 since that&#039;s what it says on the side, but the chart indicates super 88&#039;s started in &#039;54.  It has obviously been repainted and I can barely make out the old logo underneath the paint.  So, my question is, is it a Super 88 Row Crop or an 88 Row Crop?  Is there such an animal as a Super 88 Row Crop?  Here&#039;s a couple of pic&#039;s if that will help at all.
