Bought the Massy Ferguson 50 and got it home last night. It is rough no doubt, fenders are trashed, dents in the hood, and lots of just crappy farmer fixes. LOTS....
Tried starting it, someone had messed with the Distributor and it was all kinds of screwed up, so we fixed that, and put a new carb on it (came with a brand new carb in a bag??). Thing fires right up and runs great! No signs of lack of compression? All cylinders sound even, and it cranks good. No burning oil, any of that. Runs GREAT!

Long story short, I am thinking I am going to part it out at this point. Tractor is a gas engine, wide front, high crop. No power steering. Does have Engine / Ground PTO.

I think the furthest has been the Two Cylinder 7 in the Amana Colonies last year. Lots of stuff, lots of people. I've also atten
