Serialnumber

Post by henk »

One of the students father has bought a Ford 3000. They want to use it for mowing.
Could anyone find the building year?
The engine number is B 817829 with a star behind it. And it has square fenders.
Kind regards, Henk

Easier if you find the code on the rear implement support behind the starter Henk. There will be a date code for the unit stamped on there. Later tractors had a plate under the bonnet with all the numbers on. All the units have date codes including the hydraulic pump, they should read something like 7A20A

Think the serial number seems to give 1967/68.
