Rusty, I'm not involved in this string but I have a correct and original 1951 M with a T casting code on the tractor. It is located on the engine block and as I recall was cast in late October 1950. I also have other components with U and W codes. The U was used a short time in early 1951 before going to the W code for 1951 parts. As I recall on my tractor all the U parts had January dates so anything cast in a later month had the W code. The latest casting codes are on the rear cast wheels and were cast in mid-March 1951. My tractor has a 2538XX S/N and from prior research was out of the factory in early April 1951. You should be able to use some of this information to provide Mike a fairly close S/N on his tractor as 41,000 were produced in 1951 when more were made then any other year. Hope this helps, Hal.

Originally the company was called the Cleveland Motor Plow Company which began in 1912, then the Cleveland Tractor Company (1917) and finally Cletrac.
