[quote="mkirsch"](quoted from post at 08:17:14 09/29/14) I doubt IH even kept records that accurate in the first place... This was the 1940's after all. No computers!
Why is it so important to know the exact nanosecond your tractor was built anyway?
I just thought that since John Deere had a record of build dates and shipping info which is now handled/owned by two-cylinder magazine that IH maybe kept track as well and maybe somewhere there was a club that had access to that info. I think is kind of neat to find out what kind of journey these tractors have been on. I own a John Deere A that my grandpa's uncle bought new, I haven't done the two-cylinder search on it yet since I know its history. Bryce Fraiser out in Idaho has the same year A. There's 444 tractors built between the two, it's just neat to see where they originally went.
