ri702bill 8,328 #3 Posted November 16, 2021 Look at the bottom of the shifter pattern decal on the hood stand. It should start 62- and the rest is the serial number. Bill Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Post a few pictures, we'll figure out what you have. Edited November 16, 2021 by Achto Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ri702bill 8,328 #7 Posted November 16, 2021 If it is electric start and IF it has the original Starter / Generator, there is a date code tag on that -can help to narrow it down ..... Bill Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stevasaurus 22,764 #8 Posted November 16, 2021 Check to see if the decal is painted over. If so, use Acetone and "Rub Gently" to soften and remove the paint without harming the decal. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I wonder, if indeed it is painted over, if a little gasoline would work to take the paint off as well, Steve? Don Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stevasaurus 22,764 #10 Posted November 16, 2021 A number of things may work here, gas, paint thinner, etc. I know Acetone works great and fast and does not ruin the decal. Tried and true!! 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Probably because... the last time I "borrowed" some nail polish remover for a tractor... from the sweet, pretty, lovely, lady women here on the funny farm... I got clobbered...

ri702bill 8,328 #14 Posted November 17, 2021 OK - from your single picture it is NOT a 1962 tractor - '60 or '61 Suburban, I belive .... Bill Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stevasaurus 22,764 #15 Posted November 17, 2021 @ri702bill Is absolutely correct...that is not a 702. Got to be a 60' 61' suburban. Need a few more pictures...especially the trans. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
