Recently I've been shopping for a nice used tractor. I was going through some pictures and I found a picture of my great grandpas 1972 Massey ferguson 135. When he died my uncle inherited it and he wants to sell it for 5000 dollars. The tractor is all original with about 2500 hours. It was always taken care of and it never was abused. And It comes with a couple implements. Is 5000 a good price?

But it comes with a pile of implements and it's showroom condition

My wife's family bought a brand new gas, no power steering, 135 in the 1970's. When they moved south about 8 years ago my wife and I bought it. Last fall we sold it in one day for $5,700. (with a 25 year old rotary cutter)

We've had a couple of 135's over the years and they are fine machines. Around here a 135 in good shape is frequently a $4,000 - $5,500 purchase. I think your uncle's price is bang on the money. If you were closer I'd be tempted to buy it.

The tractors sat in a barn for about 6 years after my grandpa died in 2008. My grandpa loved it though, he replaced all the tires because they were cracking. He even had it completely repainted because it was fading slightly in some places

I like tractors and I'm curious. Is this a gas or diesel model? If gas, what brand engine?


P.S.
New paint? New tires? Now you're really tempting me!

It's a Perkins diesel with factory power steering. The paints good and the rear tires are great but it'll need front tires after a while
