New tractor / Massey owner

[BMOC]

I just purchased a MF35 diesel (low profile with loader), I have not even picked it up yet. I had a diesel mechanic friend look at it, he said that it looked strong so I bought it. What can you tell me about this tractor? Good track record? What year was it made (60 something)? Engine? I bought it for food plotting and working on the hunting property in Michigan. I admit I am a city slicker but willing to learn.

BMOC, My guess on the MF35 ,being that it is the previous model to the MF135 is that it is probably a pretty good tractor.
If it has power steering thats great if not keep the front tires pumped up hard /forums/images/graemlins/smirk.gif it will be a handful with the loader on it.

I've not heard anything bad about the 35 just more of a business only unit no frills. I believe the 35's were late 50's early 60's and 135's started in 1964.
