Compare old Ford and MF

[JimmyGM]

Buying old tractor to pull finish mower and found two in decent shape for my $3000 limit

A 1955 Ford 860 or a 1958 Massey Ferguson 65

Anyone have any pros or cons for either model?

Parts availability, common issues things Like that..,

The Ferguson is a lot more horse power than the ford. I had a ford 860 it’s a good machine just make sure the engine is good the underslung exhaust can and will kill you on the ford if the engine isn’t running properly

Ford 3000 for the same money is a top vintage model
