Can anyone date a V-12 Zephyr from the number stamped on the tranny ? H81741. I cannot find any stamped numbers on the block. Thanks.
According to VanPelt, http://www.vanpeltsales.com/FH_web/flathead_serialnumbers.htm, Serial #H1741 is from a 1936 Lincoln series 901, H1-H15549. <table border="1" cellpadding="2" width="100%"><tbody><tr><td align="center" width="12%">1936</td> <td width="21%">Linc-Zephyr V12</td> <td align="center" width="20%">901</td> <td width="47%">H-1 to H-15,549</td></tr></tbody></table> Other: From 1932 through 1948 vehicles, Ford Motor Company stamped the serial number into the top of the driver's side frame rail in three locations.This same number was also stamped into the top of the transmission-to-engine housing portion of the transmission
After studying the chart you posted I would think it reads 1939 ??? Or am I missing something ? # H 81741.
