For what you want to do you might as well buy a backhoe for the new Kubota or the old zetor without a cab for easy access if you are looking at old junk like that Massey. My buddy got a lot newer MF 50 type than that. He paid $3500 for it, by the time he replaced hoses, a couple of rams were bad inside he had to have new rams made for and some seals. He's got over $7500 in it, It leaks oil from the drive line and still don't charge right, but he's using it. He figured he was going to be in it at less than 5000 to dig his basement and do his work on his acerage, and dig some holes where he works on a farm for extra money.

Today's Featured Article - Product Review: Black Tire Paint - by Staff. I have been fortunate in that two of my tractors have had rear tires that were in great shape when I bought the tractor. My model "H" even had the old style fronts with plenty of tread. My "L" fronts were mismatched Sears Guardsman snow tires, which I promptly tossed. Well, although these tires were in good shape as far as tread was concerned, they looked real sad. All were flat, but new tubes fixed that. In addition to years and years of scuffing and fading, they had paint splattered on
