Bought the Massy Ferguson 50 and got it home last night. It is rough no doubt, fenders are trashed, dents in the hood, and lots of just crappy farmer fixes. LOTS....
Tried starting it, someone had messed with the Distributor and it was all kinds of screwed up, so we fixed that, and put a new carb on it (came with a brand new carb in a bag??).
