I recently bought a Fordson Major with the not uncommon mysteries attached. It came without a V5. There is no number plate or signs it's ever had one.
So I set about trying to find the serial number - looked around injector number one, the stater motor, the firewall plate in the battery box. There is a plate in the battery box but it is just operation instructions. I could not find a six or seven digit serial number anywhere. I wonder if the tractor was fitted with a Ford Trader replacement engine at some time.
The numbers I did find are as follows:
On the block there is the number: EIADON 6015G
Number under the seat: B245
On the exhaust manifold side of the engine at the rear: 4E
Behind that on the transmission: C175
Please see attached photos
I need a serial number to send to DVLA to check if the tractor has ever been registered or get them to issue a new V5.
If anyone has any thoughts or advice it would be very much appreciated.
