I grew up on a '65 diesel with Multi-Power. My dad reluctantly bought it when the seller wouldn't split up the field chopper that he wanted. It became our favorite tractor. It was like new....I remember starting it up one cold winter when dad wasn't home. Loved the smell of that diesel smoke, and that tractor still had a "new" smell to it. Dad chewed my azz when he came home (I wasn't supposed to be running it)....quanset was still filled with smoke LOL! We used it to run a New Idea 10 ft sickle mower and to rake hay. We tried it on the roto-baler, but after one day my dad's knee gave out trying to use the 2 stage clutch for each bale.
We had 14.9 x 28" tires on it for awhile, and that tractor could scoot down the road, even faster when you kick the MP into low about half way down a hill :D
My brother still uses it on the farm, close to 10000 hours on it. It just runs a brushhog now. I always wanted one, but most are beat to death around here. I settled on this 35 diesel that I found last spring. It doesn't have M-P, but does what I wanted it for.
