I am doing tonights feature and then someone else can take over please? This seems to be a popular topic so let's have your ideas?
Tonight I am going to be totally biased and selfish and ask for pictures of your Massey Fergusons........ Here's some of mine..
Some of them are my working tractors, others have been saved from the scrapyard and I am going to have fun rebuilding them! I just love the sense of going fishing every time I go to a tractor show and 'catch the big one' ....coming home with another part to complete a restoration. And then there are all the people you meet and the friends you make, like getting to know you guys on this great site!

Dad really liked his Masseys. He sold the farm in 1982 and had an auction. He kept a Ferguson TO-30 which I have now. Looking back, I wish I would have talked him into keeping the MF-135.

Don't have any masseys of my own except a MH Pacer but here is a picture of one that I recently restored for a customer. You helped me find the grill frame Samn40.

This is a Massey Harris, but I've had it awhile. Notice what it's spreading! No hard feelings I've got a Ford in the fleet as well!

1958 Massey 65 I bought recently. Was used to bush hog brush. Pipes really did a good job protecting the sheet metal. A 65 was the first tractor I remember driving, probably 5 years old or younger.

No pictures but hope you like my story.

Born and raised on IH. Dad worked at IH Dealer all his life so grew up with them . Jumped ship and worked for MF Dealer from 1967-73. Not sure if Dad totally forgave me ? Sold a lot of my IH and Deere friends their only piece of MF Equipment.....Combine !

Sold a lot of 100 series tractors also. Highlight of that time was trip to Disney World 1973 Dealer Convention "HERE COME'S MASSEY". Intro of the 1085, 1105, 1135, and 1155 Tractors.
 
Just sold this about 2 wks back - 1973 MF50C TLB. Was used hard when I got it. Fixed it up and used to stump my place and lots of other heavy work. Neighbor needed it more than me and all my heavy work is done . . . for now :)

here's the TO 20 we farmed with back in early '60,s. Was our first farm tractor. I'm having a '76 MF 1085 delivered later this week. Will post pics when I get it. It is a very low hr (4400) original paint, housed all it's life and never worked very hard as it came from Michigan State University Ag program. Drawbar pin hole is still round. Very nice big cab.RB

It's a 4900, the biggest one, has a 903 cummins v8 twin turbo, 375hp very noisy with strait pipe, dad bought it when it was almost new haven't had any troubles with it, 4000 hours later.
 
Irv, over here they would kill for a tractor that nice to leave alone. Hey that is just too nice and original to paint! My motto....if you are gonna paint one buy a rough one!...... Health to enjoy what ever you decide to do!..................Sam
