First Tractor - '69 MF135 Diesel

Picked up a 1969 MF135 last week, first tractor I've owned or driven so I'm looking forward to soaking up the collective knowledge.

I've got a 1970, doesn't look like that though. I just used it 8 hrs. haying this weekend. I think that is one of the nicest tractors ever made, comfortable, easy maintenance, sips fuel, hard to beat. I put a couple hundred hours per year on ours doing general farm work. I bale a lot of square bales with a small old New Holland square baler, some tedding, raking, spreading manure, etc. Mine has well over 4000 hrs. with no major repairs. Good Luck with yours, it looks good in the pics.

23 years ago I purchased a 35 Super Deluxe Massey. I think it was an early 60's model. Kept it a few years and in a fit of stupidity sold it. Great tractor. You will like yours too. Those are exceptional units.
