Is there a difference between a Massey Ferguson 35 and a Massey Ferguson TO-35 tractor? I am looking to purchase a service manual and parts manual for my newly acquired machine. The serial number tag indicates the tractor is a TO-35 but the Engine Cover says Massey Ferguson 35.

The serial number on the motor tag indicates a Z134 engine.

The TO-35 was first built in December of 1954 and introduced in January of 1955. It changed colors several times. In December of 1957 the colors were changed to red/flint gray and side hood decals "Ferguson 35 Special or Deluxe" were used. The front hood metal plaque said "Ferguson." During this time some dealers repainted older TO-35s red/flint gray and put Massey-Ferguson side hood decals on to make them look newer. Late in 1960 the front hood metal plaque was changed to a MF one and the side hood decals were changed to Massey Ferguson 35. It now became known as the MF 35. During this five year period some upgrades to the hydraulic system took place. Essentially the MF 35 was simply a newer model of the TO-35.

This is probably more than you wanted to know. Ha!

Hey,

TO = Tractor Overseas, Built in Detroit.
TE = Tractor England.
FE = Ferguson England

My Dads 1959 MF(FE)35 was built in Coventry UK. Standard 23c and left the plant painted and decaled as a MF 35.

I hope this helps!!

Take care,

Will

You should have a serial number plate on the dash. It is located on the lower right hand side of your steering wheel. That will help locate the year and actual model.

My serial number question was intended for Woodache, but also applies to the original question by DJ. C. T.
