Ford Tractor Serial Number Lookup
Pick your tractor family, enter the stamped serial number, and get the production year — plus where the stamp lives and what the markings around it mean.
Digits only on the block — e.g. 305616
Ranges compiled from Ford production records as published by the Ford Fordson Collectors Association and period parts references. Published tables vary by a few units at year boundaries, and Ford's model years don't always match production years (a late-1954 Hundred Series tractor was sold as a 1955). Serial numbers were hand-stamped — Ford used a capital “I” for the numeral 1 and a lowercase “b” style 6 — so read the stamp carefully. Engine and transmission swaps over 70+ years mean a serial should be confirmed against casting date codes when it matters.
