Just given this SB45, complete with battered catcher. Any chance of a year ? Cheers John A ![[Linked Image]](https://www.outdoorking-forum.com.au/forum/uploads/usergals/2017/02/full-10876-33185-img_2597_2.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](https://www.outdoorking-forum.com.au/forum/uploads/usergals/2017/02/full-10876-33186-img_2605.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](https://www.outdoorking-forum.com.au/forum/uploads/usergals/2017/02/full-10876-33187-img_2600.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](https://www.outdoorking-forum.com.au/forum/uploads/usergals/2017/02/full-10876-33188-img_2598_2.jpg)

Hi John, You'll find that this one was assembled sometime after late 1977 and before 1980. If you can supply us with the sequence of numbers as per the photo below then I'll be able to date it much more accurately. ![[Linked Image]](https://www.outdoorking-forum.com.au/forum/uploads/usergals/2017/02/full-5156-33189-briggs__id_sample_photo_model_type_and_code.jpg) Cheers, BB.
I live a 24 Hour lifestyle, but every now and again I seem to fall asleep, well at least that's what my wife tells me.

Thanks, BB. As much as I hate to admit, I can't find #'s stamped anywhere. Perhaps when the tear down comes... Anyway, here's a couple of pics that I overlooked John A ![[Linked Image]](https://www.outdoorking-forum.com.au/forum/uploads/usergals/2017/02/full-10876-33190-img_2608.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](https://www.outdoorking-forum.com.au/forum/uploads/usergals/2017/02/full-10876-33191-img_2609.jpg)

Hi John,
They'll be there that's for certain, but sometimes they are loaded up with paint and thus that fills in the low point in each number. I've never seen one without them. Maybe rubbing across the surface with a dirty finger will reveal them. I've sometimes had to use a torch at different angles to catch them.
Anyway it would've just been nice to see them as it would add a bit of providence in a theory of mine (and a database that I'm writing) regarding the sticker that has the ID details on it and the correlation to the paint colour used on the actual mower.
Cheers,
BB.
