MF 97

Tom from Ontario · Nov 29, 2018

Am hoping to find a Mohr MF 97. I know what they are going for and I know they are rare, but still hoping. also saw a custom Ford 5200 once upon a time and wonder if there is another one out there.

I am talking about a 1/16 model of a 97. Roger Mohr was the guy who made them. he concentrated on Minneapolis Molines, but the MF 97 was built by MM and badged as a Massey. I knew there was a guy up that way with a real 97 and a Super 90 WR, saw them at the Bruce county show and they were beautiful tractors, looked far better than they would have looked coming out of the factory.

That's them, all right.

Is a Super 90 gas more scarce than the diesel? That one is the only one I've seen.

I would think the gassers are rare, but I was told that on the Prairies, people liked them with loaders because they would start in unheated sheds for feeding cattle. I had an MF 85, the predecessor to the Super 90 and when at heavy tillage, it was 5 to 6 gallons/hour. Pretty stiff for a 60 horse tractor. At gas prices here in Ontario, that would translate into about $30/hour. A few years ago in southern alberta, I met a fellow who had an 88 with a loader and that was the ancestor of the 90 as well and that's what he used it for, also raking hay.
