TE20 GFU 550 early photo and ourchase invoice

In a nutshell, I have a photograph, taken circa 1954, of a ‘Grey Fergie’ with its then owner in our backyard. We live in what was previously a Victorian smallholding in northern Lincolnshire. As well as details about the former owner and his family, I also have a copy of the sales information for when it was sold on by Briggs & Holmes, Chartered Auctioneers, Brigg for £82.10s.0d (buyer unknown) 1st October 1959. The tractor’s registration is GFU 550. From the information I’ve been able to glean online, it appears that it was first registered 1/1/50 in Maidstone and has had a total of nine keepers in 74 years. A V5C was issued 1/8/24 and so it must still be around. I’m assuming that the present owner would be interested in having a copy of the photograph and information about the tractor’s early history, which I would be happy to provide.

Be aware esp. when Buying

Below is an excerpt from a recent experience of a Club member…

I recently put a wanted add in the wanted section of the website. I received a response by email from someone calling himself Derek Meehan of Izalea Cottage, Central Road, East Riggs, Dumfrieshire, Scotland, DG12 6TB email derekmeehan61@gmail.com, along with a picture of a tractor similar to mine with the attachment I wanted on the back.

We agreed a price including shipping, I was asked to pay the money into his supposed daughters account, being Monica A M Besouro Acc No.xxxxxxx Sort Code xx.xx.xx Lloyds Bank, which I did.

Then the problem started, when the following day he asked me for an extra £200 shipping cost, I told him no further monies would be forth coming so to either ship it for the agreed cost or refund the monies, after several days delaying, I checked with the Club to see if he was a member which he wasn`t.  I immediately contacted my Bank who also suspected a scam and at 9pm while still talking to them they agreed to refund my monies which was back in my account the next morning. I know they froze the account I had paid into, as yet I don`t have any further information but I consider it a lucky escape, perhaps my story might help prevent this from happening to any other members, happy for you to publish and I will just have to hide my blushes.
