Is the original engine tag still on it? If it is it will be just below #3 spark plug on an aluminum tag and it will show Z 129 then the next 6 numbers are what is the important part. If you will post those six numbers it is possible to either tell the exact year or give you a chance between two years depending on when it was built.
 
Jon if I can remember correctly take that 353282 then subtract 250000 that leaves you with what should be close to the original serial number of 133282 as the person who figured this out says within 500 numbers plus or minus. Because this 133282 is very much in the middle of the 1954 serial numbers and not close to the beginning or end of a year I am confident in telling you you have a 1954 Ferguson TO 30 tractor. There were only 6718 TO 30s made after yours if they actually made all of them to the 140000 serial numbers that they say they did. Good job on getting a Ferguson TO 30.
 
Jon these don't need to be tucked away you are able to use them when it is cold out also. Or am I to understand you don't go out in the cold? LOL
