YTers,
Could anybody give me the specific location of the SN tag for a Ford 851? It is supposed to be on the dashboard panel, but I don"t see it. I"ve always wanted to find out just what year our 851 is.
Thanks,
Bill

Thanks, guys. I'll look for the SN again tomorrow.

I think it was the Tisco tractor tips page that said the dashboard panel for SN location.

What can I say, I'm a Farmall guy.

Bill

Appears to be a 1960 model. I didn't write the number down, but it was 6 digits and the second digit from the left was a "2".

Charged up the battery but the poor old girl wouldn't start. She has a weak spark but apparently not getting gas. The 8N wouldn't start either. Guess I'll have some work to do.

Thanks,
Bill

Heres the easy way to find those numbers. Take your left hand and put it on the start, put your right hand on the clutch pedal. Then look down at the bell houseing. You should see a flat spot there and the numbers will be there. they will look sort of like this.

No tag and certainly not on the dash. I don't know where you got that information.

The model and serial numbers were hand-stamped directly into the transmission housing in the location John has shown you. If you post those numbers back here, one of us can tell you the year it was built....or you could look it up by clicking "serial numbers" (list of links on the left side of screen).
