Message:   Hi,

I found a 9n with the smooth cast rear hubs this weekend and was wondering what eles I needed to look for to see how early it is and correct. I know abut the serial number, but was wondering about other little clues. Can anyone help? How long did they make the 9n's with the smooth rear hubs?

Thanks,

Stuart

Message:   Greetings. I am the new owner of a Ford 9N and trying to locate the serial number as there are no papers for this tractor. Trying to determine the year and features, etc.

I found a four-digit number *1273* on the left side of the engine block near the starter mounting location. But I am not certain this is the right place. A buddy told me it should have the prefix 9N before the serial number.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks,

Tony
