case 450 track loade serial 4-219955

The only number that looks in question to me is what you called a 6 originally, to me it looks like it is a 5. The 7 and 8 are correct. If it is a 5 (3051781) your machine is a 1973. Close examination is required. Take a sheet of white paper and try doing a rubbing if you can't tell for sure.

I might be the only one but I can't see any of your pictures unless I highlight the https string separate from the brackets for image and search for it. When you are loading pictures do you scroll down a bit, from where you are adding text, to the area that says Upload Photos/Videos, then use the Choose Files button to import the photo you want to attach? Also, you don't need to use the image brackets when you use that button, the program does that for you.

good idea, i,ll do the paper thing,

I cropped the view I posted from your earlier picture of the "full Plate". I enlarged it and clarified it to make the numbers stand out better. I think 3051781 is the number. I can see a flag at the top of what originally was thought to be a 6 and the shape is like the 5 in 450 above it. If the 7 was a 2 it would be rounded, not flat, at the top and the scratching/discoloration at the bottom does not appear to be a horizontal flag. Sorry but I don't see that this picture changes a thing, in fact the 5 and 7 look a bit clearer to me. Serial number 3051781, it is a 1973 machine.
