moogie 372 #1 Posted October 26, 2015 Here is a photo of my Grandfather(driving) with his first tractor. We think it was in the early 50's, go by the age of my mother and two uncles. I would love to have this tractor today but i think it was exported to South Africa. Is there any way to find out if it is still in the UK? Another old photo of my mum when she was about sixteen on her way to feed the hens. Could you picture asking a teenager to do this today! 10 HeadExam, neil, pmackellow and 7 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

S1g 579 #4 Posted October 28, 2015 There's nothing on the Dvla, but could mean the log book was never updated to swansea( didn't this happen sometime in the 70's?-before I was born.) 1 moogie reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Triumph66 1,256 #7 Posted October 29, 2015 Fantastic photos from a bygone era. People were certainly made of sterner stuff in those days. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
