If you can get the full number, you could write to the Norfolk CC archivists saying it's for a Fordson, and they should be able to tell you the registration date and first owner. They may then be able to formally issue this number to your tractor.

Do you guys over there take your Dexta's out for a drive in the country?? I do that some here and with an amazing top gear, I often go 20 miles or more....its really a fun way to enjoy my tractor....I assume thats why you need a REG number??

I made a carrying box which goes on the back to carry my dog with me. We go for runs in the countryside when the weather is good but this year it's been so wet, this has been slightly curtailed. how ever , we still go around the village where I live almost every day,great fun and most people give us a wave.
