Montgomery wards mini bike serial number tracking

[Txpete]

Is there anyway to know the year of a Gilsonite or Montgomery wards imbibe by its serial number?

As far as I know there isn't a database of serial numbers, or any suggested way to read them and pinpoint a date. Then again, I've never tried. Maybe Mark G can help. He's a Gilson buff of sorts

Thanks again Cap. How do I find Mark G here. Newby not to tech txpete
