Descrizione
Unfortunately time has come for me to pass the custodianship of my lovely very early 1949 Ferguson TEA20. I have owned this lovely tractor for the past few years and in that time it has been cared for started regularly and taken on the occasional trip around the driveway, always getting admiring looks from neighbours and the local children want to have a sit on him. The tractor is now fully registered for the road although I have never had the guts to drive on it. The tractor for the last 30 years has had a very sheltered life and in my ownership has just been a loved and pampered driveway queen.
I have always wanted a grey Ferguson, especially an early petrol, just as Harry envisaged. My first intentions when I bought the TEA20 was to give it a nice paint job and enjoy but after consideration I came to the thought that it would be a shame to spoil the years and years of patina so decided to keep exactly as it was just make sure everything was working correctly and oil the body a couple of times a year.
The Tractor starts first time on the stick and runs very well on its original 6v electrical system, all gears are easily selected. The only thing I added to the tractor were the original headlights, these are in great original condition and look great although they are not wired in, these were very expensive when bought as I wanted originals not reproductions that don’t look right. I also had the tractor fitted with new tyres front and rear, a great expenditure but certainly make the tractor look better. All hydraulics work as they are supposed to. As you can see by the photos the body is in very good condition and has the great patina of age.
Although I have spent a small fortune on the upkeep of this tractor, and I totally understand I will not get my money back, I have enjoyed every day with it, everyone should have owned a Grey Ferguson at least once in their lifetime, it will be a shame to see it gone.
Comes with some original service, instruction books and the registration document in my name.
