I"m looking at a used Ford tractor. Supposedly it is a 1985 Ford (blue), Model AP313A, Unit 3K15B, Engine T853/0651. 4 WD, 28.5 HP, 335 hours. Live PTO, 3 cylinder Diesel, 1702 CC. However, in reading your site, someone reported that 3K15B means it was built in 1973. I can't find this model anywhere to get a blue book value. The guy is asking $8,500. Does anyone know anything about this model of Ford? Thank you.

I'm not familiar with the exact model numbers you provided, but from the specs, that sounds like a Ford model 1910. The unit code "3K15B" is simply a rolling code which indicates the day it was built in a 10 year cycle. "3" could mean 1973, 1983, 1993 and so on. "K" is October, "15"....the 15th day, and "B" on the day shift. My best guess is that the tractor is a 1983. FWD would not have been available in 1973. Again, I'm not positive about the model number you provided, but I am guessing it is a 1910 based on the specs. Personally, I think the price sounds a little high. Those were generally quite reliable tractors provided they were looked after. It's always good to check them over well, and make sure that everything operates properly before you buy it. Good luck.
