Hello Im new to the Farmall Family and I would like to know some information on my tractor.
I have been trying to find out the value and year of my tractor. All I have found so far is the serial number , which is U008940 .
The serial tag reads Model 300 Serial U008940 Max load 1960
I have plaques in stailless steel on the tractor that say " Mc Cormick and Torque Amplifier and of corse Farmall 300 .
This is a working tractor and is not in show condition . The tractor works great ! and has been modified from a generator charging system to an alternator type. It runs on gas and has a 3 point hitch system. It has a wide wheel base in the front meaning the two front tires and not close together as I have seen in some pictures.
I bought the tractor when I purchased a new old house with a very lond driveway Approx 1000 Ft. There is a large snow blower which attaches to the back of the tractor which will come in handy with snow removal this winter . So what I would like to know is how much is my tractor worth and how can I find out what year it was manufactured? It came with the original manual which has been some good reading in learning more about my new machine There sure are a great deal of grease fittings on her !! :-)
Any information and or help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks Cash

Cash: I could look it up for you but I think you can do that. On the left of your screen under Research & Info click on serial numbers, then Farmall and finally 300. You will have on screen the beginning serial for each years production. For this purpose don't worry about the letters in serial number. The letters do indicate options that were on tractor when new.

In your manual there will be instructions on clutch and TA adjustments, pay close attention to these. Very good old tractor was the 300, a bit hungry on gas, very good starter, My dad bought one new and 35 years later I still had it. It was the main source of power on our farm for close to 10 years. 300 were the main source of power on a lot of farms for 10 years.

As for value hard to say, you don't see a lot of them for sale, but in good running condition probably 2,000-3,000. They sold new in 1955 for 3,100. so as vehicles go not a bad investment.
