I've been looking for a Massey Ferguson 35. I'm pretty be to this. Never owned a tractor. I pretty much ran father in law's farm for last 4 years as he was getting to old too do it, mostly haying.
My wife first learned to drive on a mf35. So mostly looking for her, but I'll use it more than her. I'm starting a small cow/calf operation.
I'd try to get herdad's 35 but it got pretty messed up and probably isn't worth rebuilding.
Found one this week that seems in pretty good condition. 1961 mf 35. Perkins diesel. Starts right up. Seems to not be leaking fluids*. Pto and 3pt working.
*Oil leaking from top of starting column. From what I've read on the forum, it's probably from a seal that's gone out at the top of the steering box.
Tires + or - but not too bad. Back right wheel rusted pretty bad.
They are asking $3200.
What do you think?
