I bought my M with 300 Du-al loader on it in 2002 for $700. I was looking for a loader tractor, but didn't want that piece of crap. It had some broken truck seat on it, the grill was mangled, the hoses were leaking, the steering was tweaked, etc. etc. My friend that was with me said, if you don't buy it for that, I'm going to. He forced my hand. I bought it.

I fixed the steering so the right front wheel doesn't jam. Bought an original seat. Took the pto pump off and added live hydraulics. Rewired (Thanks Bob!) etc etc

I never posted at ytmag back then, but everything I did to my M I did with everyone here help. I did a lot of searching, etc. The M is presentable now and purrs like she should. I doubt I will ever restore her, but you never know. I know love my M and am never sorry I bought her.

Is a M a winner? You bet. I made a decent tractor out of one that had been neglected and abused for years with very little work.
