Bought a 5200 Massey in 1990 and owned it for 17 years. Detroit powered cranked up to 500 HP. That thing could pull like no other. Traded it for a John Deere 9400once it had 6000 Hrs on it .Loved that old Massey

Good to see a Ferguson for a change.My dad bought a new Massey 65 in 1964 the year I was born and it's still running you can't kill a Perkins diesel.

I’m in the UK, and here I started my farming career on a Massey Ferguson 35, then up to an MF 65. As the years progressed, I drove an MF165, then the MF178 and eventually onto the 4WD 1200. Even though I now no longer work on the farm, I’m still a Massey Ferguson fan 👍

Well, I had enlarged from a MF 1155 2wd 150hp. V8 to MF 1805 4x4. 210 hp Cat. In 1980. I restarted my career in 2010 being second owner of MF 1805. As of yesterday, it has 3978 hours all original even tires are the first set still on it. It toils 90 acres near Winnipeg Manitoba Canada just because I still want to!! I sure enjoy all your presentations. I never knew of the 5200 MF. But now I do. Thank you

Great presentation on the history of the MF 5200. Thank you! Grew up with Massey and never knew why more farmers didn’t have them in SW Ontario.

I had to watch that a second time. I just love those articulated masseys. Thank you .

Had a few Massey Ferguson's on the farm a 275, 698 and used a 1085 and 1105 Good tractors love the Perkins power

Great video!!!!!!!!! I love the big Massey fergusons . The 5200 is better for moving the exhaust and air cleaner to the side apart from that it's the same as the others. I wo not say no to having any off them. Massey ferguson rule!!!!!!!!!!!

We had a 4880 back in the 80’s. We still run Massey’s to this day. We have some 86 and 8700 series.

Nice video We farmed in stokes NC not far from Kinston, We had 12 MF tractors and combines. 35,135,165,175,1105,1135,1155,2805 tractors. 300,410,540 combines.

Back in the 80s in the UK I worked on a big Lincolnshire farm and we ran 4x 4840 and 1 4880 they were very good tractors in their day and were superb strong pillars and sounded awesome( all 903s).Also they were fitted with euro spec electronic control 3 point lift.I often wondered how they were at the end of production, and thanks to you sir,I now know👍

Excellent coverage of these Big 4 wheel drive tractors .You do great work. I watch all the video. I Farm growing Potatoes. I was driving Grandpas Versatile 850 at 13 years Old. I bought the Massey 5200 in 1991 at 23 years Old driving it for 17 years. It was a Great tractor Detroit 60 Series turned to 500 HP 8 24.5x32 weighted and Calcium filled duals it pulled the 36 foot Sunflower Disc with ease. Strait piped from factory was loud changed that as I got older. During the 6000 Hrs only issue as the Air Conditioner other than that it was a excellent tractor. Traded it for a 9400 John Deere it had a little better ride, quieter, but could not out pull the Massey for sure. Still have the 9400 and added a Restored 945 Versatile to the list a few years back Beautiful tractor from Western Canada. Love the Videos keep up the good work.

I have a small compact Massey. Love it. Massey is all my grandparents used. Good quality tractors

Got a 1990 Massey Ferguson 3070 92hp. I was raised up on Massey's.

That is my favorite old work horse . Love the old girl . Thanks Jason 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍🇨🇦😍

Big tractor power I have a cousin that had a Massey Ferguson 1150 or 1155 with the Perkins V-8 diesel a few years ago. I remember seeing a Agcostar 4wd tractor at the Sunbelt Ag Expo back in 1997 when I was in middle school. Your videos bring a lot of memories for me.

in the late 70s we had a MF177 with 4wd and turbo open station. loved that tractor.

Love the sound of old masseys

If you have one of these tractors. Keep them! Something that reliable and strong you’re never going to find in you’re whole life!

We have a lot of 70s-80s Massey Ferguson equipment. We have a 4880 and two 4900s as well as smaller tractors like an 1155 and four 1105 tractors

My Dad uses a Massey 1130 on his farm for tillage and bailing. Little large for the bailing but he got a good deal on it and the other tractors are either too small or too big. Dad and I built a 4wd tractor out of FWD truck. Dad did all the design i just turned bolts and did some grinding and cutting. It's powered by a 220 Cummins engine with a 10 speed Fuller, I think, transmission running into a two speed transfer case. Dad made the rims by welding the centers from the FWD into the rims from a John Deere combine so the tires are on 26" rims and I believe they are 23.1-26's. We had some issues getting a local machine shop to finish up a pinion shaft for us with the guy telling us he'd get it done "next week" for about a year and a half until Dad finally gave up on him and essentially built himself a surface grinder. He used it to cut the splines and finish out the pinon. I'm not sure how much he uses it since he bought the Massey but it is a cool machine. It is amazing how many people told Dad it wouldn't work.

I don't think you'll have a chance of getting that MF5200 as part of your collection because for the farmer to replace it would work out very expensive, on the farm I worked on ,the 3 Massey Fergusson's he had were the 35, 65 and the 165 the only time we had some serious tractors is when we were drilling Ammonia into the hay field's and the contractors were using MF 1200's to us we thought they were spaceships absolutely beautiful wasted on our farm. Stay safe God Bless, regards Kevin Fox,Essex London, UK.

Yes we run Massey Ferguson on our farm. A 1155, 1135, 1130,1130 narrow front. 1085 and 175

Great sounding tractor. Looks to be very well maintained; no blue or black smoke. Nice

We had a Massey 4880 with the 903 Cummins that we bought used in ‘89. It was a good tractor, much smoother and quieter compared to the Versatile 895 we already had. When the 903 died we traded for another Versatile.

I owned a Massey 4880 with the 903 Cummins, the biggest problem we encountered was when the engine oil cooler broke, it took many flushings to get it back to working order. The only other problem, is the air conditioner, if it quit, the tractor was unusable. You could not get enough air in the cab to keep you cool. For years we had been told how much more torque 6 cyl. engine had, but that is the farthest from the truth. We had an 11 bottom moldboard plow, that you could stop in the middle of the field, and to start up you let the clutch out, and give her the gas, with the Agcostar 8360 I traded the 4880 for, when you stopped in the middle of the field with the same plow, you throttled up and then let the clutch out, that's the difference between 6 cyl and 8 cyl torque. I retired from farming in '05, but in '03 I bought a Massey sub-compact CG2300, I traded it last fall for a TBL 1723e with a Curtis cab on it to blow snow with. The CG2300 had 666 hrs. on it and except for a problem with the PTO lever, the only thing I did to it was change oil and filters. In my humble opinion it was a great little tractor.

Taí que trator monstros pena q no Brasil não saíu

Watching from Guelph, Ontario which is about 45 minutes north of Brantford, Ontario. Drove some of the smaller Massey Ferguson tractors growing up on the farm in the 70s.

Wow!! A whole bunch of great history and specs!! Good video! Answered lots of questions.

We learn every day ! Im a big fan of Massey and i din't know that Keep up the good work ;)

Another great video. Good to hear these big boys bark pulling a boil set of disks. 50 years ago I worked for a farmer who would send us out on a Saturday on a 4020 and a big set of heavy disks ‘to keep the weeds down and stop you blokes getting into trouble’. Old fashioned but it worked.

I really enjoy watching the tractors and farm equipment working out in the field. Thanks for all the videos.

Love those 903’s soundtrack. Lush.

It's a 60 Series Detroit which ranged in size from 11.1L to 14.0L. It is considered by many to be the best diesel engine built to date with the 855 Cummins usually coming in second to it. Either way the Massey Ferguson 5200 has a great engine in it and it sure had a nice sound to it in your video. Personally I'd love to have one with the 60 series Detroit in it.

The Agcostar looked cool .

I started with a 135 massey and I still love them wants no other brands put a Cummins in a Massey and that thing will last forever

Was waiting for the operator to open the throttle on the 5200 and let it bark

I’m a big John Deere fan but I do have to say that is one nice tractor

A lot of people thought they were set for life if they were hired at the Massey combine plant and were a long time recovering when they were dissolved a friend of mine used to test prototypes on his farm for the engineering dept

I liked seeing the big Massey at work

Beast!

Iooks like the governor is tired, the RPM is not stable. Very nice tractor and video by the way !

Watchin that agcostar bouncy bouncy bouncy bouncy bouncy

This was a great video I love old Massey tractor we had massey on the farm and my stepfather worked for a massey dealer ship

$128,000 that was lots of money back then they made this life investment back then but they where built to last back then farmers wouldent tolerate it being junk .I've never heard much bad about massey ferguson we has a few 70s models and they where good not the favorite tractors but they got work done and where reliable looked really good all shinedup .

Your description Jason. Lol. That's a weird looking Fendt 1050.!!!

JD and Case with quiet cabs and strong dealer networks killed off lots of competition in the 70s and 80s.

I wonder how many of these huge tractors are still working hard for the money these days and how many were returned from retirement to work again?🌻

This would be a sweet edition to your lifesize tractor collection.

I've never seen one of these models. Very interesting. That disc was really chopping up that regrowth and weeds.

We used a 4840 for many years in Western Australia we still have that tractor now on lighter duties We also have a an Agco star 8360 which is used for ripping sheet ironstone in fields with a Reefinator The main feature the Agco has over the Massey is the stock mechanical parts available almost anywhere Have you done a video on articulated Australian tractors from the 70s and 80s such as Phillips Acremaster Waltanna and Baldwin

We never loved are massy ferguson buy they are great looking in paint shined up

I really liked this video love to hear the history and what happened who brought who and where they are now or if they even exesest. Great video !!!

These machines are 40 years old and do the hardest work.

A farmer I worked for in the early 80's had two 4WD Massey's, an 1800 and an 1805. The farmer also had a Versatile 835 and that was the Cadillac of the 3 tractors back then I thought, although I never got to drive it much.

Spent many hours in a 1500 as a kid on the farm. Nice tractor in the day. Nothing like the one in this video though!

Thank You for a content. Great video

Massey é Show

I grew up using Allis-Chalmers and Massey Ferguson’s!

I learned something new. I never knew it was built in Kinston Nc. I live 30 minutes west of Kinston Nc.

I put in 4200ac this spring with a 4840 and a 4900

I would be curious to see how the Detroit and Cummins compared as far as torque rise, fuel consumption, ease of maintenance and cost of maintenance and repairs.

Still have some smaller Massey tractors. 1130, 1150, both open cab.

903 , sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet sound

Awesome video Jason! If you know of a 5200 for sale I would buy it lol

I enjoyed the heck out of that video.

That's one heck of a disk!

Thank you much appreciate it👍

Nice sound of the 390 hp version ! Yep, but no fendt 1050... :-)

I wonder if notched blades would create a better result

We have 4 of the 4000 series. Good machines if taken care of

I’ve used massy from the 44 and 555 dam ne’er every model made up to the 4840 and 4880 my favorite outa all of them is the 1130 and 1135 . Currently I’ve got 17 massy tractors.

That is a good sounding tractor

For a split second I thought you were at Cole the Cornstar’s place

we used to have an 1805 massey with axle duals

You could get the Agco star in red and orange also

The old Massey Ferguson Factory in Brantford was an amazing plant with loads of other brands also at the site. It was sad to see the factory close and eventually demolished in the early 2010's.

Still using a agcostar 8360 today great tractor has over 9000 hours on it

Have two Massey 175s, 1135, and a 5480 in Mexico New York

Baita bruto..

I want one for here in Germany!

Looks so much like upstate new york

Neat! Great sounding machine as well.

I would love to buy this tractor not a lot of 5200 out there.

Hopefully you’ll feature the 4900 eventually

bigtractorpower has a weakness for V8 articulated tractors. I can see him getting a Massey with the V903 Cummins to go along with his V8 John Deere and International.

Tinha que ser uma aradora pra jogar terra pra Sima

Massey ferguson 5200-IMT 5200

I would like to see this tractor with the series 60!!

Interesting history of the MF 4-wheelers. Too bad you could not do an interview with Mr McConnel himself and find out why he bought the MF brand of 4-wheelers, and why they just did not catch on.

Very nice tractors Mike from DWARF WORKS

Love your channel and work ethic tho.👍

EXCELLENT MERCI ✌

Great videos ! Would be nice if you could show equipment unfolding/folding, road to field.

D21 in the field please

the size of that cab!

Yes sir Massey s still run them

super MF tractor, have a nice weekend !

We have Massey Ferguson 265 in Germany.

Bro I legit thought you were at coles place
