Nice job on the Massey, looks great. Mine is a couple generations removed from yours, old MF F40 which is same as an F50 and maybe another tractor I don't know about. Has a loader like yours but mine looks worse now than when I bought it. They'd put some "lipstick" on it, prettied it up then dropped it at auction where I got it for a good price. Replaced a bunch of hyd hoses and the trans fluid, otherwise I just turn the key and it goes. Still need to split it to replace a leaking rear main seal-- that'll have to wait until better weather. It's a pretty primitive tractor by today's standards but it's done a ton of work around my place.
Anyway, just follow your gut. You'll know if it's right to say goodbye to your machine or hold on for a little while longer. From experience, the best deals come when you are not in a hurry to buy or sell.

But alas, my carb foiled me again, it would fire a second then flood out. After numerous dead ends for a replacement carb, I went to work fixing mine.I soldered new floats on the float arm, they came from an old motorcycle carb, replaced the packing on the throttle shaft with o-rings, cut new ga
