Went to the CNH site and got more confused...that's easy anyway.
3 Cylinder gasser and faded 4000 decal.
Under the hood: Tractor # 6292715
Model# 1424C
Unit # 1A07B
Engine# 0C06A
On the starter housing: 0E25B
AE7023
Thanks guys.
Couple of things seem to be missin' Wendell. Like in the photo of mine, the numbers need a letter in front.
That denotes the model: B-2000, C-3000, D-4000, E-5000
Also, the tractor serial number should be on the housing just above the two numbers on the flat spot behind the starter. Starting with a letter.
There are two numbers stamped on the opposite side of the starter, that souNdguy told me were not used for dating as far as he knew when I bought my Ford.
What puzzles me is, that the unit number on the hood is the "born on" date code, and should match the "born on" date code stamped on the housing.
If I'm right your hood is dated 1-'71, A-Jan., 07-7th, B-day shift.
Your tractor is dated 0-'70, E-May, 25-25th, B-day shift.
