I bought this 1937 WC and found these numbers stamped on the left side of the seat base (as you're sitting on the tractor) and I was wondering what they might mean as I have never seen them before? Numbers are 135D and 40092 http://s1204.photobucket.com/user/Randy_Walker/media/IMG_20170422_155021227_zpsmmeskfym.jpg.html" rel="nofollow">  ------------- In Search Of: 1958 Allis Chalmers D17 Diesel serial #9643D |

Possible foundry mold or batch numbers. Being you said it was a '37 (assume unstyled), I ruled out the long number being a date code 1940, 9th day, second month.

Cool! We crossed paths and didn't know it. I was there. Wish I knew it.

I was actually in Jackson Michigan picking up a trailer. I had my dad bidding for me. I didn't make it there until about 1:30 to pay and pick it up. We thought that most of the tractors brought plenty for what they were. There were a lot of issues and unknowns with most of them. ------------- In Search Of: 1958 Allis Chalmers D17 Diesel serial #9643D |
