Greetings, thanks for accepting me. I inherited a Ford 2000 Dexta when I purchased my home 8 years ago. Finally decided to work on it. Although it is badged as a Ford 2000 the casting dates indicate it is a 1958 model. Engine code starts with 13.

Just ran the codes and looks like it was made in April 1964.

The previous owner bought it new in Utah, it came with my house. Yours looks great!

Welcome to Fordson Tractor Pages, highangle. That's a pretty nice Super Dexta. It needs a little work, but there's a lot there to work with.

What part of Utah are you in? I'm going to be in Nephi and Mt. Pleasant for a few days next week.
