I had a similar thread on this forum back when I obtained my 1953 Super C and believe I remember the data that was posted here. My SC is s/n 1803XX and the records indicate it was built the last week of August 1953. It does have a fast hitch, the flat back style head lights, etc. and the items which is correct for that s/n range. Most of the casting dates on the major parts were either in June or July 1953. The date info referred to below by Randy is noted on the casting as 7 26 Y which would indicate that specific part was cast on July 25, 1953 which in fact is when the front wheel hub castings were cast - it just happens to be my mother's birthday so an easy remember. The year date code for 1951 is U or W (U was only used in the early months of the year like Jan. and Feb.), 1952 is X, 1953 is Y and 1954 is Z. If your tractor has all the major castings dated within a couple month period with U or W codes your tractor is most likely fairly original. Hope all this helps you assess your tractor and I'm sure you will like it very much as you get to use it, Hal.
