Farmall1066 Posted August 14 Share Posted August 14 Working on an 826 GD, and I found this #2 on the underside of the main hood, written with a black marker. A friend of mine has, if I remember correctly #17, or #19 on the underside of his 826 GD hood, what do these numbers indicate? Did all the Gold Demos have a number on the underside of the hood? This particular 826 is serial number 14041, so it’s nearing the end of the 70 model year run of production. @Bermuda_Ken 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acem Posted August 14 Share Posted August 14 Never had the hood off mine. I'll try to look and see with it on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems as though it may only be an 826 thing, so that really makes it interesting. 8 hours ago, iowaboy1965 said: That's an interesting question! We may never get an answer as to what these numbers represent, but it would be another piece of history unlocked if we can find out! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SD6788 Posted August 21 Share Posted August 21 So I have had 8-10 demonstrators and all of them had numbers written on them in the exact same spot. Mr. Updike told me he believed it was line build numbers as they were being built at the plant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
