The MF 65 is a really nice tractor, with live hydraulics and PTO. The T0 20 has neither. I'm not one to go into debt, but if the MF is in great shape, it is worth 3800. The To 20 is the equivelent of a Ford N series, and in good shape can do a lot of work, is light, easy to store. However, you can rack up a serious bill restoring these to proper working order. If I was seriously considering the TO 20, I'd make sure it had good compression, that the lift worked good, that the steering box was tight, and that the front spindles were nice and tight, that the brakes were working, etc. Tough call....
Good luck,
Steve
