Working in and around the farm shop in Missouri. USA

 Jan. 30th   have started on the Massey Ferguson 135 gas tractor with only 1047 hours on it.....one owner going to give it a tuneup all oils changed and filters.  Repaint and out the door.  I have a Massey Ferguson 65 diesel with engine problems that is coming in next.  Let me know your here......appreciate you stopping by.  Scott

Update January 17th  almost finished.....good thing too, this tractor's brother a MF 65 diesel is sick.  It will get into hospital here soon.  But first I have a MF 135 gas tractor to just paint.

I need to get the tie rods on, fenders back on and decals.........will be ready to feed round bales....After setting for over 10 years it smokes some.......I am hoping it is a stuck ring and with the cleaner I have in the engine oil that cleans it up and loosens it.  

So far........redid carb., radiator, new water pump, new belt, new hoses, tuned up engine, set the valve, changed engine and transmission oil (that was a mess to get it all cleaned out).  cleaned out fuel tank, rebuilt starter.  I will also have redid the tie rods to tighten up the steering.  everything works but the fuel gauge.  Not too worried about that right now it is easy to fix.  Tightened up the brakes, greased everything.  We are ready to go to feeding cows round bales with this for a while.   It will be sold in the spring, after I use it a while to make sure it is ok.

THANKS FOR stopping by!

I am starting today Dec. 2nd on a Massey Ferguson 65 Gas tractor.  It is a late 1964 early 1965 model  one of the last 3000 made of that model.  It has not been running for over 10 years.  I cleaned the engine and front of all the grease as best I could outside with oven cleaner and a pressure washer.   Watch as I take it from the way it looks to something that I can feed cows with this winter.  This is a 45 horse power tractor with a 4 cylinder continential engine.  This was a very very popular tractor in its day.  It has power steering and "Multipower"  which was new at that time and Very well liked.  It gave you two gears in each of the 6 forward gears making 12 combinations.   Scott

You will also see some of the cows and stuff outside the shop in the daytime too! Well  you will never know what your going to see me working on in the farm shop.  You will also see the "farm dogs"  that rule the shop too.   Hope you sign the guest book too!  Let me know where  your from!  Greetings from the farm in MISSOURI USA.      THANKS!     GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR FAMILY!
