Hello,
My Unisaw was purchased back in the 1980s, and I'm getting ready to sell it to upgrade to a Hammer. The serial number is: 87D17755; Delta Catalog Number: 34-802F. Can someone help me find the year it was made, and is there anyway to tell if it was made in the USA?
Thanks for the help!

I don't feel like looking it up on vintage machines to be 100% certain but I'm 99% sure that it is April of 1987. USA made for sure if it is in fact a Unisaw and not one of the "contractor saw in a unisaw cabinet" models.

Thanks! It is indeed a Unisaw.... 3HP and not a contractor saw. Unfortunately lacks the modern safety features, but otherwise has been a great saw. The date makes sense because I bought it in 1988, if memory serves...
Appreciate the help!

Fact- "87D..." = April of 1987.
All USA made.

And that's as authoritative as you can get.
