1965 Massey Ferguson 135
Well finally the job is finished. It took a lot longer than planned but this was mainly due to circumstances beyond our control and indeed several other projects were completed at the same time. The end result is very pleasing - easy starting hot or cold weather, no oil or fuel leaks, smooth engine, clutch and gearbox and overall a treat to drive. Those who have driven or ever worked with this model will appreciate its robustness and versalitity but it's only when you get into it's inner workings that you really appreciate the quality of it's engineering and components. A really fantastic tractor.

1965 Massey Ferguson 135
Apologies for slow progress to date. Other projects kept getting in the way. However paint work is now complete and we are well into the rebuild. This takes time, patience and a lot of fiddly fussy work. The bonnet fitted very well and the prefit certainly was worthwhile. That said it took most of two days to assemble all the parts, add the emblems and complete the dash and headlight electrics. We challange anyone to do it quicker. Hopefully the next update will show the fully assembled tractor.
