Vaquero serial number lookup?

[Clay Slayer]

Any published info on serial numbers for the Vaquero series? Looking for year of manufacture on a used unit I purchased recently.

Serial number label says "25th Anniversary", Serial number is 157xxx. Anything special about this "25th Anniversary" model?

Thanks,

Tim

Nothing special. Call the factory and they can tell you when it was manufactured.

This isn’t difficult. 25th anniversary of Tesoro. Website says they founded the company in 1980. So you have a 2005 model.

Thank you very much.

So the 180xxx i got off of goodtimecharlie would be the following year or so, or do they not produce that many?
