I grew up on a farm. We had one of those tractors. I was so young when I started driving it, I had to pull up on the steering wheel to depress the clutch because I didn't have enough body weight! Our tractor would have been about 1960 also. Edited to add: I was born in 1960. The family added a 135 around 1970? sometime? All summer long those two tractors ran 24 hours a day. Mowing, spraying, putting out empty bins, loading full bins of fruit onto the trailers.

Yes. This is gonna make someone a great little tractor. Probably gonna make a package deal with a bush hog and a small hake rake once I get it all finished

Isn't the sound of that AD3-152 Perkins engine a beauty ? I can tell you right now that no 2023 tractors will be running in 60 years like old tractors do today. The 35, 35X and 135 were built to last decades ! I own a David Brown Selectamatic 880 year 1967. Restoration is way too expensive at the end but I would do it again no hesitations.

Thats no joke right there. I would use the old stuff anyway before new ones. You let anything built after 2000 sit for a few years and you might as well haul it off for scrap. I ain't saying you can't get one running, but it'll take more to do it than a 40 or 50 year old machine

Perkins is one of my favorite diesels. Ever

You must live in a very dry climate as it’s in very good condition.

It is. And usually we are pretty dry. Hard to tell now though with the pretty much non stop rain for a month

@@oldironfinder I’ve just inherited a MF 35 but the tinware is a bit worse for ware. Mind you, I live on the SW coast of Ireland where it never stops raining haha

Yea, yall do get lots of rain. Of course, we have here lately too. I'm in north tx. And we've been getting hammered with rain, high winds, flooding, and tornadoes. But it's about to stop and then we will be begging for rain. So howdy from Texas and have a good one brother!

I've always loved the perkins diesels. This one sounds great. Gonna try to get radiator out and repaired and then change out front tires and starter solenoid and it'll be ready for a new owner

At least it runs and drives that's all it matters

@oldironfinder Жыл бұрын

Yup. What little it needs is minor stuff and relatively easy to fix for cheap

My dad had one of those rakes when i grew up and it worked really well.

@oldironfinder Жыл бұрын

I'm gonna go through this one and make sure it works well and it will probably go with the tractor as a package deal

Great to see the MF35 back online again. Dont know what microphone you used, but the audio was awful ☹️

@oldironfinder 11 ай бұрын

Just the mic on the go pro. I'm trying to get a Bluetooth mic to connect to it. Not sure if its possible. I've got a go pro 5. Haha. I've bought a second hand laptop and go pro on the marketplace to get this channel going. Hoping to get monetized soon so it can help me get some better equipment. Baby steps. Ill get there
