Serial number shocking discovery

I just realized today that the two 50 model M's that I have are exactly 7 numbers away on serial number. I bought them years apart and in different parts of the state.

Time sure treated them differently though. The runner is actually the first M and the first tractor that I bought. Has power steering, Lamberts and good tin. The other one I bought more or less as a parts tractor. Has a pretty good sized patch on the rear case. Loose but not running. Had been on LP at one time then switched back to gas. No wheels. Never know what you'll find out there.
 
I always find that stuff neat...

The neighbor's NewHolland hay rake is serial sequential to Dad's. I suppose that's not quite as much of a coincedence, since they were bought at about the same time from the same dealer.
 
Ya odd how things like that happen. I have 4-1940 Farmall Hs. 4 Allis Cs that are all 1946 and a pair of Case VACs that are both 1946. All but the 2 cases came from different places and I got them over a few years time so yep understand what your saying
 
I know of a guy who bought 2 examples of the same model Massey Combine but bought at different times and when he got the second one home he found the serial number was sequential with the one that he had bought earlier.
 
Same here i bought a farmall 140 about 5 years ago and just bought another one last week and they are just one serial number apart. One ends in 47 and one ends in 48.
 
I have consecutive Ms, 39630 and 39631. Discovered also by accident. Dad bought 39630 fcrom the son of the original owner in 73 or 74, and 631 was bought as a parts tractor, but when I discovered the number, I couldnt part it out.
 
The number sequence is way cool.
The randomness is tempered by the notion that groups of tractors were sent to dealers and regions based on the train full. (probably with most serial #s sequential). Finding a pair by accident with one from CA, and one from WV, would be a miracle. Jim
 
I have two C's that are two numbers apart. If I ever find the one in the middle. My Case 300's are sequential. Now it just takes time and money to get them both restored.
