From the http://www.jdsleds.com home page, build numbers can be found on the left-hand side under Menu > JD Models.

The tach and speedo were often dealer installed options so there is no actual known amount of how many sleds were sold with each option.

79 T-fires had a steel tunnel.
Therefore beware the tinworm.

Look under the seat to see if there is anything there.
Also check around the foot holds and bulkhead for rust or daylight.
