Hello!
Can you tell if a 1947 120/140 has the forward-swept gear based upon serial number?

According to the parts catalog, left and right gear legs are the same up through 14306. Starting with 14307 they are different, so that would be where the swept gear came in. Of course, a lot can change in 76 years...
