If someone could help me on the identification of this tractor that would be great. The Case has been here since I moved in. The hand crank will still turn the engine over. The intake is broken and there are no spark plug wires (among other things). The draw bar is stretched so I know it was used extensively. Any help is greatly appreciated. I was going to sell it for scrap (because scrap prices are going through the roof), but figured I would look to see if anybody could shed some light on the tractor for me. Thanks.

I have two CO model Cases...a '30 (C309327)and a '31 (C312474). On both of mine, the first letter is definitely a C and it is noticably larger in size than are the numbers.

Got the serial number. It's 6306537. And right above it on the data plate it has the CO for the model number.

If you can make the first "6" in the serial nr go away (306537) it would be a 1932.

So what is the consensus on the year? I didn't realize that the tractor was that old.

I've seen 6 digit serial nrs on 30's tractors that are preceded with a "0" but don't remember which model(s).

Look at that "0" again, can you make a "C" out of it? Go to the "Tractor Registry" on the left and look at the model C tractor 6 digit s/n's preceded by a "C" and starting with a 3. All letter series tractors built 1929 - 1937 have a 6 digit s/n starting with a 3. After 1937 s/n's have 7 digits starting with 4, 5, 6, etc.

Some of those listed there have incorrect year. For six digit s/n's 1st and 4th digit combined minus 3 = model year (ex 306537 = 35 - 3 = 1932)

I went and looked again and the 0 could be a C. I thought it was when I looked at it again this afternoon but because it was all numbers I assumed it was a 0.

I think that makes it a model CO in the C series tractors.

Way out of my depth here, that thing appears to be older than me (not much).

That is interesting; Case production records show that no CO's were built in 1932, the height of the Great Depression, and only 47 carryover CO's were sold.

Last quarter of 1931 = 1932 model year??? Just looking at the registry seems like 306537 would be a 1st quarter tractor. I really haven't a clue though.

Upon a closer second look the first number is a zero. Not a six. It's a little hard to read.

From the looks of the fenders, I'm certain it's a CO, the orchard version of the C series. There were about 1350 of them built between 1929 and 1938.
The manifold is being reproduced as is the hood.
Most engine parts are also available.

Post the serial number and we can tell you the year of manufacture. It should be on the tool box.

I just noticed the carburetor; that's a Kingston so that makes it 1934 or earlier.

Here are the pics of the sides. Have no intention of scrapping it. Just the price of scrap got me thinking. I'm sure that there is someone who would like to restore this one.

Instood of killing the old tractor off in a scrap yard. Why not sell it to someone. Put add in the add section and see what happens. Scrap iron is a terrible waist of a tractor. Where you located?
