Any good tools to date this engine?  I google searched but could not find a chart, per say.

Hello

 

I want to say there are approx. 75 Seniors on the Registry.

I say approx. because it takes time to confirm if the seller was

already on the list, sometimes more then once ! Which tractor was sold

and the name of the new owner, City, State, Engine Serial number, ETC.

 

2020 has had the most Seniors found and sold in the last few years.

Mrs. P's  tractor serial number 2275866 is just one away from 2275867

located in PA !!  Congratulations !!

@Big-Game I’d like to report a lever steer moving from North Indiana to Michigan today.  It’ll be hard to put an actual date on it as the Wisconsin engine on it is not the original, but I was told it is thought to have been the last ‘47 built before they began Senior production.
