I was recently given a 5000 super major that had sat in a field for 3 years. got it running, now looking to put it back to specs after 40+ years of "coathanger" repairs. trying to figure out year it was made, can't find a s/n tag. may have been one on the hyd.lift cover, on rear,between pto shaft and seat...If so, it's gone now.I know it's between 61-64, but most sites say they have gray wheels/fenders.Mine has a blue hood w/"5000" decals,white wheels & fenders,blue body, "ENFO" cast into all cast parts,"Fordson Super Major" chrome medallion on front, and external headlamps on each side of the radiator,about 1/2way up (not high up on the front cap like some photos I've seen). Saw a pic of one similar to mine that said it was a 62, but the lites were in the grille, not external like mine. Thanks in advance for any replies.
