G'day guys.
Since my parents bought the family farm in 1986 (vineyard) we have had an old ford tractor. I believe it to be a 3000 from 1965-75.
Mum has since upgraded to a new tractor and just yesterday gave me the old ford which I'm stoked about. Fired up no worries after sitting for 12 months. I intend to take it back to my place and then slowly restore it in between using it for the bigger jobs which my Iseki 2160f cant handle.
I have been looking here:
FORD CODES and SERIAL NUMBERS
TRACTOR MODEL & SERIAL NUMBER
to try and id the tractor but the numbers don't quite add up.
On the right side of the engine where the important numbers are (as in the 2nd link above) I have the following:
Model 6-F-21-B
Prodution 7A18
Serial Number B062139
The model code I have has me totally stumped as it is nothing like the ones above. It seems from the Serial Number the tractor is made in England so maybe they used different model codes?
The production number is also 1 digit short but once again maybe the English didn't list what shift is was produced on, other wise it comes up with Jan 18 1967.
Any help would be very much appreciated.
