How To buy a Massey Ferguson 165 completely unseen.... Its a risk but sometimes it pays off - will it pay off this time ? Will It Turn Over ? Will It Start ? Will It Run ?

The Massey Ferguson 165 and 135 was the first two Massey’s I drove on my own . Earlier my dad had aMF 35 & 65 I rode on them but to young to drive them. We had many different Massey’s under 100hp. Today I have a 1990 MF 3070 92hp. My brothers have a 471, 451, 35. I also have a IMT 539 deluxe it the same as 35 MF with power steering.

We have a retired MF dealer in the area, that still maintains his business shop, but no longer sells new equipment, His devotion is to vintage models & he has knowledge & a collection of parts that might stock an Assembly Line. Went there once to check if he had a radiator hose that would fit my IH. He threw me out, if it isn't a MF issue, keep out !!

The last two tractors I drove for a job was a 1986 Fiat 160/90 then 1988 Massy Ferguson 3680 Datatronic. Very different tractors but both awesome pullers in their day.Fergy was on 16.9/36 front and 20.8/ 42 rears which I thought was a unique combo then,so either of these two would be nice to see👍.

Podge, Put decent sized tyres on the 165, 18.4x28 and 7.50x16 on the front. That is how they were delivered here and with a proper roller drawbar they were expected to spend their lives pulling machinery that was too big for them. They were a bit under powered compared to their main competition the Chamberlain 9G but most managed to hang together somehow. My Ford 2000 has 14.9x24 on the back and 6.00x16 on the front and looks good shod like that. That is how it would have been optioned when new as well. Jeff.

Thanks for the video, that masseys not bad for it's age. what ever you pick it'll be worth watching. Man I don't remember Cambridge looking like that over 20 years ago. Last time I was up there I took the kid that worked for us, We pulled up 6.30 AM sale day and the kids absolutely amazed to see 3 Masseys the same on a truck going in. I told him you'll shyte your pants when you get in there and there's 200 more of them before you get to the other Massey models or the ford line, he'd never seen so many tractors in one place . That was another day were foreign aid money was being wasted, the auctioneer was standing between the brothers stopping them beating the crap out of each other during bidding wars. It's kinda concerning when the chopping hands off motions start with those boys they aint buggering about ! In normal times do they still have those good heart attack inducing breakfasts they were worth driving from wales for, without going to the sale.. Take care

Nice find there, I missed out on a MF135 a few years back, it was in very good original condition, it was for sale at a farm only five miles from home. The guy wanted £500 ! I told him I would be back with the cash in a couple of hours, the bugger sold it before I got back. It had been on that farm for years , it was the best MF 135 in original condition I had ever seen. I was gutted and not a happy bunny. A few years before that I missed out on a Tripple D . Win some loose some. I did great on three non running JD's a few months later that I had for nothing and sold them on for a great profit. Your vid reminded me on the 135 I missed out on. My Ruston Bucyrus 10 RB is being delivered on Thursday. Will do a vid on that for my channel

4/65 Nuffield. May be a little vanilla in flavour to you, but less so elsewhere in the world. Big like for this video as the Massey was/is big time popular in our area. Finding price jump in similar era 40 - 60 hp tractors, especially with a loader. Not for collectors but for regular duties to ward off increasing the hours on more expensive newer machinery, of which service and parts are getting over the top. Not even going to mention cracked heads, rotting hydraulic hoses, etc etc just out of warranty even on Kubota's. Similar there?

'Ere, Mucker, how far are you from Cheffins Cambridgeshire sale ground? - Me dad always wanted to get there, but never did. Well that old Fergie started like any early 165 would do - we had a 1969 model that we referred to as the "towster" (pronounced as toaster) because the only way it would start from cold, was with a tow, and this was 1972 I'm talking about! So 'Fud's' is a good one, and like ours, once warmed up, it'll start all day from the key. What size are those rears? I'm pretty sure ours came from factory with 32"s on the rear, and 6.50 x 16 on the front. Same rear tyres as our '62 Super Major anyway. (Now that was a legendary tractor that would start in -30*C - without ether, or a heater plug, either!). Maybe you could do an episode on the Super Major? Or perhaps the much maligned DB 885? Personally, I'd like your take on a DB 1290 (I have one right here, and wonder if your findings would match up with our experience). Mind you, ours has a 12/1390 'Frankenmotor' that my dad built for it!
