Yes sir 1957 lol

Thanks, Picked many acres of corn with one back in the 60's . The 5 gears was much better than the 4 on the jubilee and the 8n. And way better than the 3 gears on my 2n.

Well , truth be told .....

I was "pickin" more bales today,

Anyway, I got an email, asking if I use a "ball" on my winch to pull trailers, with the "front" trailer having a ball coupler... No I don't, here's how I do it,

I lift with the cable and pull with the chain... It's a FAST hook up and works perfectly!!! AND I don't have to mess with a "ball" when I want to pull my wagon, alone...

Out with the old, in with the new. Sold my 1957 Ford 641 and replaced it with a Massey 135. I think the Massey is mid 60's. I'll look the numbers up later. 4 cylinder gas. The Bendix on the starter wont kick out. May just have the starter rebuilt. I put the battery on charge last night, will probably just put a new one in. I got more for the Ford than I paid for the Massey, so I have a few bucks to through at it. I think my buddy said his dad bought the tractor new. It was kept in a barn so little to no rust. He got a 90's Ford FEL so he brought this one home to MD to sell it. His dad's old farm is only about 5 miles from my farm in WV. As soon as I get it running he has to trailer it back to WV for me, Joe.

Thanks Al, it has the Z145 engine. Put a new battery in it and it started right up. Ran a couple minutes and conked out. Then it would only start on a shot of starting fluid. Pulled the carb off and the float and needle valve were stuck in the off position. Cleaned it up real good and she fired up and ran great. Drove it around the neighborhood a couple times. Every thing works, nice to have good brakes, the old Ford didn't. This seems to have power steering, turns with one finger, really nice. Having fun playing with it, Joe.

 

[rarefish383]

Oh, the tach works and is showing 2345 hours, Joe.

 

[rarefish383]

Just checked, the serial number is on the left side just behind the engine, under the side panels. SGM641010004. Are the numbers above beginning or ending? That would put me at 65 or 66, Joe.
