Could someone please help me with this serial # on my 3000 to find the year model and other stuff about this tractor? I cant make heads or tails out of it. Looks like the numbers are 5D06B 3000 D085 A104 411 Thanks for the help!

The fact that it has "3000" stamped into it indicates that the transmission was probably replaced at some point and whoever stamped the replacement transmission didn't know exactly what they were doing. Let's hope some of the other numbers are correct. The fact that it has those oval logos with the Ford script in them stamped into it in multiple places indicates that it was probably stamped by a person at a dealership who didn't know exactly what they were doing as well.

5D06B looks like the Unit Number, which is a code for when it was built. It should be April 6 of either 1965 or 1975, during the day shift.

A104411 looks like a serial number for a tractor that was assembled at the plant in Antwerp Belgium. It is a fairly low number so that should clear up the year from the Unit Number above, and it should be 1965 rather than 1975.

That D085 after the 3000 looks like it might be the assembly data for the transmission itself.

So without seeing anything else, my guess would be a 3000 made on April 6 1965 at the Antwerp plant. If you post some other pictures of the tractor, including the grill, hood and front and rear axles we should be able to confirm or disprove those numbers.
