Numbered Series Database

I'm currently gathering numbers and information on the Numbered Series line of tractors. I've got a lot of production information already entered in, as well as information out of the parts book for these tractors.

If you would like to submit your information, you can post it here, send it to me by PM, or by email at: ohyeah76(at)yahoo.com.

I hope to get enough information as the other two that are up and running to use a good tool for history and restoration work. Check out the links in my signature line for how things currently look for the others, the Numbered Series database will be laid out in a similar manner.

What I need for this to be useful is your tractor SN, EngSN, and any Cast Code you can locate without having to take things apart. If you don't have or can't read the tractor SN, then the others will be fine.

And as with the other lists, your name, location and tractor that you own will not be released for your privacy.
Thanks for your consideration! :D

Raymond:

There are a couple at a local dealer. Will go over the next time I need something -- one is at Fort in Amherst and another is at Arbings in Sussex. About 40 mins to an hour away, but I usually get there 2 or 3 times in the spring. Will try to get Serial's and maybe a casting or two at that time. The Numbered Series are kinda light up here - don't see many for sale and the one's that aren't for sale sorta hide out in barns and such :lol:

Question. Ray, do you maintain the name of the tractor owner?

Thinking that an available list identifying the tractor and owner would be a great resource in case the tractor is damaged, (insurance claim) or stolen.

Eugene, I do keep notes as to the owner of the tractor, or where I got the information from (eBay, Craigslist, show...) in case I need to go back to the source for clarification. I won't release your name and the tractor you specifically own to the forum, but if you happen to have your tractor stolen, you can send me a PM, and I could go back through and find your information and give you all the specifics you gave me originally for identification if you didn't happen to have them written down.
Does this answer your question?

Yes, does answer the question.

Last tractor purchase was simply a check in amount of purchase. I have the SN's recorded. Also dealt with insurance companies and law enforcement on a previous equipment, tool, theft and property damage. Just thinking more documentation of ownership surely wouldn't hurt.
