Determining year 2600

I have a 2600 #C545985 and want to know the year it was made. Is there a chart somewhere that lists by ser #? Engine # is 7E17A so I was thinking possibly a 1977.
 
According to external_link, C545985 is a 1977 serial number. There should be a production code right by where you found the serial number that would be of the same format as the engine production code that you posted which would give you the exact day the tractor rolled off the assembly line.

That engine code means that the engine was assembled on may 17, 1977. The tractor was probably assembled anywhere from a few weeks to a few months after that date.
 
Thanks,
I found the serial # on the rt. hood. The tag shows
Tractor# C545985 Model BA231C Unit 7F28 Engine 7E17A
Trans 7E26C Hyd pump 7E24B Rear Axle 7E31B Hyd Lift
7E17A
On the engine block it's stamoed B204315 On the
trans it's stamped BA213C 7F28B C545985
 
You must have typed the model number from the sticker under the hood incorrectly, as the one you typed that was stamped into the transmission looks correct, BA213C instead of BA231C.

BA213C is a 2600 general purpose ag chassis tractor with a diesel engine, live PTO and 8 speed transmission.

BA231C would be a general purpose ag chassis with a LPG (propane) engine, no PTO and an 8 speed, which would be a less common configuration, although it is possible.

The Unit number is also referred to as the production code, which tells you exactly when it was built. 7F28B says it rolled off the assembly line on June 28, 1977 during the day shift.

The tractor number is also called the serial number. As we discussed earlier, C545985 is a 1977 serial number, which agrees with the Unit number above.

All of the other numbers on the sticker under the hood are production codes of the individual component:

Engine 7E17A - May 17, 1977, midnight shift

Trans 7E26C - May 26, 1977, afternoon shift

Hyd pump 7E24B - May 24, 1977, day shift

Rear Axle 7E31B - May 31, 1977, day shift

Hyd Lift 7E17A - May 17, 1977 midnight shift.
