I'd say 400 also because of the location of the throttle controls. 401 would of been push pull where that one should have levers. I Believe... :notworthy:

I would agree with a 400. Throttle/ choke contol location in the hood, foot rests and pedals. That's a pretty good tractor to start with, it has the "tougher to find" parts already there except for the controls.

It's a 400 and potentially an early one based on that belt guard. Anyone take notice to the fact that it ISN'T like the usual '60-'61 guard? This is the odd ball guard that is sort of in between the RJ style and typical Suburban style.

Is there a snow plow with it? The pedal is there and the lift arm is as well.

IMO, that tractor is in fantastic condition and damn near worth leaving as is. :notworthy: Buy it or send it my way, LOL.

Id say it is one of the first 1960 400 suburbans built, unless the beltguard is from a different tractor?

I would say you are all right !! I would also like to say I am the new owner of this one. I contacted Will (truckin88) and he decided to pass on it so off I went to get it. I will be opening a new post with pics.
