If you have information about date and color relations that might help others date saws, please post it here.

What UT numbber is this saw: Xl-12 Serial 43362629 Color: Red, Blacked out panel on the starter side. Red and Black XL-12's of the mid Seventies had an ID Tag with just the Model Name and a Serial Number. *UT:10080 - 10445 , is "perhaps ?" a match for ; XL-12 SN:43362629 .... DOM; Monday, December 2nd, 1974 . Some pictures below of a similar unit ;   |

I have a blue Super XL AO serial number 41272772 so it was made on May 7, 1974 and a red one serial number 43220805 so built on November 18, 1974. I don't know if they were building both colors concurrently or if they changed colors in between those dates.
The blue one's serial number may be dubious because it indicates that saw was the 2772th saw off the line that day. I know they were popular even Henry Ford would be jealous of that kind of production. Anybody know how many saws they could crank out in a day?

The serial number indicates the year and day built, and then the number built for the model, not that day only. They were not building thousands upon thousands of each concurrent model every day. I am not sure why that misconception exists, as it isn’t that way with other product serials either. |
