I'm jealous

Buddy of mine called and said his wife bought him a tractor at an auction just down the road from me. I didn't know it was happening. Oh well.

Anyhow I just got back from checking it out for him. He need me to transport it to his house.

What he got for $2100.00

1960 MF65 with all the Bells and whistles...
Multi-power,
Differential lock,
Power steering,
2-stage clutch,
Spin-out wheels,
Straight Sheet metal
Decent original paint.
Sway brackets,
Original under mount pulling bar (often these are removed)
Original Lights (one front is a replacement)
Front weight bracket and 4 weights
and New Rubber all around to boot.

I think this one will have to make a pit stop at my place before heading cross town. :)

Only issue owner fessed up too is the breaks are for naught.
 
It is a SGW. I did not get the S/N.

Gas, Standard 4 wheel, with Multi-power. Did all multi-power have the 2-stage clutch? I Could not feel if it did for sure and I did not have the key to staert it.
 
All the 65s I have ever seen or worked on had the two stage clutch. I think it is newer than 1960, I thought the first Multi-Power tractors were 1962, that is what the 65 Diesel is that I sold my brother years ago, has the flat steering wheel. The 63-64 years had the deep wheel, suspension seat and clutch-brake pedal updates. Of course none had the deluxe shade like the one I put on my TO-35 and MF 85 diesels! No aluminum truck caps back then.
 
I think I am more impressed that the wife bought her husband a tractor than the tractor itself! What wife buys her husband a tractor? That is one lucky man!
 
You can't see the bubble machine anymore Jeff. I camouflaged it with 2 MF looking rustoleum greys..... shhhhh.
I brought 5 rustoleum almost Ferguson and almost MF spray cans to the show. Incase I was asked to do a demonstration... funny how no one asked me to...
