I'm impressed with my little '57 TO35. I'm impressed with the knowledge on this site. I'm impressed with the willingness of folks to help out anyway they can (Thanks a million to John in the UK for the barage of e-mails I sent him getting my new(to me) front-end loader working, and to Rob Fisher, whom I bought it from!).

This little Ferguson... I guess I have a nice tractor! When I ask neighbors to help me with something, they're impressed with the fact that this ol' '57 has a three-point hitch! (The "Ferguson System"?!?? Come on folks...) Then they notice the H & L transfer case - more impressed. Then, as we talk, the two-stage clutch will pop-up in conversation and they're surprised again! They're surprised at the implements I have that it will run. I guess folks around here aren't that familiar with tractors that's aren't either bigger-than-my-house, or ones that aren't Green and Yellow...

Just babbling, meaningless drivel! Mushy moment! A heart-felt THANKS again to all that have helped me in the past with advice/suggestions/comments/help.

I tried responding last night , but it seems to have gotten lost in cyber space. Great looking Tractor and loader. I just purchased a TO35 and was surprised to se that the loader on your tractor is Identical to an old loader I have out back. It needs som fixing up, but I thought it would work well on the TO35. The problem I have is the the loader mount is a scabbed together piece of junk that was made for a different tractor and wouldn't work on the 35 if in good condition. Would there be a possibility of getting some pictures of the mount and how/where it bolts to the tractor and some measurments? If I had them I could build a new mount and it would save me LOTS of time trying to build one thru trial and error (probably lots of error).
Thanks:

Dana,

Thanks for your "endorsement" of the TO-35. Yes, it is a great tractor. At the time it was advertized as the "World's Most Copied Tractor."

You might be interested in knowing that the Ferguson Expo 06 will be held in Waverly, NE next summer. You rreally ought to think about bringing your tractor there. It is going to be a great 5th anniversary show, celebrating the birth of Ferguson Enthusiasts of North America. Watch the site below for more informtion.

Dana,

Yes sir,they are great tractors. Dad started out with an F-12 Farmall. Then a TE20 and later a TO30. To really understand the Ferguson system and the Ferguson tractor you should try to get a copy of;
