My grandad bought one complete with threshing set in 1954 he and my uncle collected it from Victoria works Gainsborough and drove it home it stayed in the family 34 years and never once failed to start. in the winter a bucket of warm water and 3 turns and away. I've driven it harrowing leading Straw, rolling, cultivating with a big old ransoms drag.
@@Tractorkinguk the original number is SNU 116 the last time I saw it it was like brand new. I believe it was sold by the guy who restored it to a collector in Devon.
@@Tractorkinguk I will ask my cousin if he has anything with the serial number on. it may take a bit cos grandad and my uncle kept everything. (Exept cash receipts) ha. They used to run 2 marshalls and 2 team's contracting the old Man started with a Fowler Steam engine he was self made man starting down pit at 12 years old.
Went in to DVLA site its still registered not taxed(exempt vehicle show up as taxed) however if you scroll down the page it has an export marker. So sadly I think the old things gone for ever. I'd intended to trace it after the covid see if I could have had a last drive of it.
Hi there, the orange is in fact faded red oxide primer, it’s a series 1 1946. The seat on it at the moment isnt the correct seat and the exhaust is the early style before the extended version
@@Tractorkinguk I'll keep an eye out for it. I love the feeling of starting and running a tractor that's been stood for a long time. Unique smell that can't be replicated too.
Nice one Shane. Love to see old kit brought back to life.😀
That big 305 CID 1 cyl 2 stroke taps significant amount of zero point energy!

If you knew the serial number or original registration number you could probably locate it

Great video, looking forward to seeing the progress
nice find, runs well.
my series 1 needed the big end sorting out. They only made 2000 series One's making them the rarest of the range.
Thanks Carl think mine is number 594
Nice start. We never had much luck with the crank
That's awesome, she sounds sweet pal
Not the usual high back seat. The tuned silencer has a different sound than I was used to.

Tidy we got a 3a which Crawford rebuilt and restored for us it’s been to a few shows last one was burwarton show In August
Is that the series 3A ? The orange throws me off. Familiar with the 2, and 3.
Get the tyres replaced and take it out for a proper drive round.
