Are any of these alive?

[Horncastlefarm]

More out of interest than anything else - I hope someone can help.

Our grandfather has records of every single item of machinery purchased on the farm since the 1939 - it certainly makes for interesting reading.

I am interested to see if some of the below tractors are still alive and kicking! The below takes us just into the 90's - I have included the ones I have VRM's for.

Managed to find the following which may be alive according to the tax checker - most of the others show as untaxed!


FORDSON POWER MAJOR XWX682 - Not taxed for on road use

FORD 7710 4WD A165RTL - Taxed 01 February 2018

Ford 6410 Tractor G99TTL - taxed

If only you'd kept a few (or all) of them! It would be one hell of a machinery shed to behold!
