JD BI

[16-30 oilpull]

Can't find serial number for BI's are they with the BR and BO? Are they rare? might get to bid on one with nice older paint.

JD BI are more rare than BO & BR

 

[JD Dave]

I believe the serial number range includes all BO, BR and BI tractors. BI production was 174 but someone can correct me if I'm wrong.

How does one locate that serial chart on Tractordata.com? Does that chart also include models BR & BO?

Yes.
BO/BR/BI serial numbers were included
in the same serial block of numbers starting at 325000 and ending at 337514.

SN chart Rodney posted states final serial # @ 332,157 which I knew was incorrect if it included BO's because my BO serial # is 335,160

Where does one locate these serial charts on Tractordata.com? I've searched but I guess I'm too thick between my ears to locate those SN charts. Thank you.

Jim,

Just keep scrolling down until you get to the SN chart for the model you're researching.

As stated the BI is a very collectable and rare. Ran same serial sequence as the BR / BO. There was a total of 183 and two were recalled and converted back to BR's due to low sales. Leaving only 181 ever seen the world as true BI industrial tractors. Mine is a 1938 that was shipped to a neighboring county new in May of 1938 . I found it in same county tore apart laying in a shed. Completely restored in the Winter months of 1991/1992, I will try to post some pictures, It has been in this YT forum in years past in the photos. You may find it in searches. It has been shown in the JD collectors center in East moline before they closed it and I showered it at JD's 150 anniversary in Waterloo where I work today.

On the rowcrop B page, scroll down to the section marked Variants. If you want BI for example click on BI and a list of first serial numbers by year will come up.

I have a list of surviving BIs that I've been collecting for a couple decades. I'm up to 87 found so far. I'd love to know what BI you're considering bidding on, you can contact me privately if you'd like. Don't worry I'm too broke to bid against you hahah My email is [email protected]

Brandon, Thank you for the photo! One of many I am sure I have never seen. That was a very hot day / event!!!. I would start it and let it idle and people would stand there and listen to it until I shut it off. Saw Joe Diffy perform there that evening. Big event!
