Your Dad is a great wealth of knowledge love watching him on your videos ...great team
She's an honest workhorse, had to laugh we have the same sunroof on a 390, grandad took her into a low building about 15 years ago!
The 135 was a legend. Boxed well above its weight
i guess im asking the wrong place but does any of you know of a method to log back into an instagram account?
I was stupid lost the login password. I would appreciate any help you can give me
@Henrik Keegan Instablaster :)
@Darian Max i really appreciate your reply. I found the site through google and Im in the hacking process atm.
Takes quite some time so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
@Darian Max it did the trick and I now got access to my account again. Im so happy:D
Thank you so much, you saved my ass!
@Henrik Keegan Glad I could help :D
To Father Phil I thought that all of the Perkins 3 cylinder. 3.152 Engines , used in all of the 35 series were direct injection First 135 that I saw was in Multyfarnham Ag college in 1966 . The brothers bought a 135 and a 165 to me as a kid who loved Tractors they were beautiful My neighbour had bought a new power majors couple of years previous and I got to cut hay with that liked the blue . Keep up the good work
Best tractor ever made I learnt to drive on a tractor like this
Naw a fiat 110-90turbo and tw Ford are
Hi’ Phil that’s a cracking wee tractor, j the Duncan cab was a flexible design fitting most tractors, with either fenders straight or slightly round , that 135 has inherited the fenders & cab off a John Deere 2130 , 👍
Duncan cabs, noisy buggers, everything rattled, trailer pins to close the back window, not tightly so rattled also, the Flexi-cab was a joy by comparison.
Ah the ole flexicab ‘twas a soft cushion alright , not half the vibrations
Well. They keep chapping on don't they. 😉 Great wee tractor that set a high example in there day. Bonus you can still find work for them to enjoy them as working tractor not just to show. 👌👍
What would be a nice addition to the 135 when restoring would be a pressure control hitch and a added quadrant in the tractor, the pressure control system took tree quarters of the weight of a implement or trailer and put it on the back axel and the tractor had better traction and the silver fast and slow response on the side of the gearbox where the dipstick was for checking oil in the back end gearbox , was whether you wanted a fast or slow response when the tractor would come along a incline and whether you wanted to have traction to activate fast or slow, the important bit is to add the quadrant to the back of the tractor as a tractor without the quadrant will climb the differentials and before you would be able to depress the clutch the front would rear up and turn over, the pressure control was available on 35 65 135 and other 100 series tractors ,it increased a tractors capacity to pull a load ,
You bought a tractor when you were 10! So there was never any doubts about what you were going to do for a living was there! What a tractor, sat outside for several years and just a bit of a tow and it starts. Great video, Cheers.
I learned to drive on the 135s bigger brother a 165 and had front loader on it 👍
Brilliant yard tractor with scraper and many other jobs
Have ye a Zetor Crystal joining the fleet?🤔
There was a lot of them JD cabs imported here in the early 90s . My father fitted a good few on 135s and 35s for customers. There is a manufacturer plate on the inside over one of the doors which should tell you what it is off . Probably a 2020 or similar. They were a grand ol cab . Good bit wider than the standard Massey Duncan cab . Bit roomier inside and the wheels had to be dished out to fit which made the little Massey look a bit cooler in my young mind back then😊
Its not a JD cab
What a great gesture by Father Phil. Get that restored
Great Tractor with great man father Phil. I just rebuilt MF135 from 1967. AD3.152. Red wheel centers, Mk 3 Lambourn cab. Your latest addition - Ford 4000 or Zetor Crystal.
Does father Phil know when they started putting foot throttles on the 135’s? Ours doesn’t have one it’s a 1971 UK model. I didn’t realize they ever put them on them to be honest. Anyway, can’t kill those old 135’s, had ours since new, they had 2 here at one time they did all the work on the farm.
We had a Duncan safety cab with pins to allow it to be removed for rolling silage, think it was removed twice, it would have been better to have had Zetor own cab with the buddy seat, but you live and learn.
The very first Massey ferguson (tractor experimental)135 was built in Detroit Michigan end of January early February 1963,and it was shipped over to stonleigh Coventry uk for experimental testing, until the model was put into production in 1964, it had a 35 sump and a different fuel and injector system along with different position of bolts in the head than the one that was put into production, the first garage in the uk to supply them new was Jack olding and co (Scotland)ltd perthshire and aberdeenshire ,weathershield cabs were available in January 1965 , in 1968 the bonnet grill length and bonett length changed became longer the wheels were welded instead of riveted the aluminium handles on mudguards changed as did lift arms pto ,when you do finally get around to restoring it machinery decals uk are good to get the decals for cab and more importantly the bonett as alot of tractors are restored with the later decals with the ferguson system in the decals instead of being like the original like the 35 Massey ferguson and the ferguson system a separate decal on it's own, tractor when it was new had red wheel centres and silver mist rimbs white exhaust the early decals, everything including the fuel filters the water hoses was all grey red diesel tank ,I wish you health to enjoy driving it for a very long time,
I have a 68 model 135 and it only had the 13 inch grille, the swept axle and the riveted wheels with the 12 holes on the front ones, the tacho is in the centre of the dash too. It does have the later grab handles tho. I think the 14 inch grille was introduced on the straight axle 135s in 1970 along with the welded wheels.
I think you're going to need another workshop shed
Ur dad a wealth of information when it comes to tractor history good man father Phil, should do his own channel on tractors and the old machinery 👍👍👍👍👍
Great listening to the 2 of ya on about tractors.. my first tractor was a 135 also.... ( wish I still had it)... great machine, never once didn’t start or let us down...
Guessing the tractor is.... ih 956..(2wd) hopefully 👍🏻👍🏻
If your uncles tractor is bordering on classic territory I'm going to really stick my neck out there and guess 1 of either an allis Chalmers (my grand uncle had a D272) or an old Field Marshall. Both very popular machines in their day!
I guess a international 956 👌👌👌. We have 1 and she is some yoke for pulling and drawing in silage
No better yoke for scraping out yards. On a good summer day id spread with an 850gallon on the 135. Good video. Ur uncles tractor may be a fiat 780 880 or 980dt.
I learned to drive on too classic hardy little tractors . I love them .
Hi Phil. My 9 year old son loves watching you, and he's had a quess at your uncles new tractor Ford TW 15.
Loving the vintage Thursdays Phil. Your dad has a great memory. I guess an International B414
Ford 7810 ?.. love the vintage thur I have one my self in the hedge and she going no where😂🚜👍🙈🙈
The bent axle and the solid pedals.... She's an early example. Have a late version with the bigger pedals, with holes in the middle and straight axle and with flexi cab
I leard to drive on one and I loved bringing in straw and turning silage
135 the ultimate pocket rocket. Top gear tried to break the hilux? I was raised on Dexta's but the 135 pound for pound punched way harder on pto and handling.
Hydraulics the dexta would hold if not beat but the 135 was almost a 4000 in a dexta body.
Great little tractor the 135 I guess your uncle bought a Fiat 880
Great videos and wealth of knowledge for ur dad and uncle
Ford 6610 , just a guess when you say classic, Border line ventage?, Another great vedio 👍.
Thinking we all started out on a 135 or similar Phil. .... mighty wee bus.....guessing an 8210 ford ?.....maybe ......or even a 2100 leyland , now there was one hull of bus!,,,
I reckon its gonna be a ford anyway, maybe an old major. Could you narrow it down by brand or else we will be old and grey by the time someone guesses it
What tractor did your uncle buy I'd say it's a 6700 ford or 6710 beacuse in one of your throwback Thursday videos your uncle was drawing in with a 4wd 6710
Zetor 4718
Well done savage video i thinks its an international b414
I learnt on a 1992 90-34MX Renault with 90hp but we own a 165 the 100 series are class
Nice tractor to restore
Cracking little tractors
Get it booked in ill soon have that looking better than new for you 😉
Nothing wrong with that, that the phils couldn't fix. Leyland 285
Love a Leyland 285 tractor
The old masseys done well considering the life it's had, there aren't many left just like the blue grey super majors. After the export trade out of Cambridge sales and dealer yards. I remember seeing 100's every month for a few years in the 90's..
I Was thinking about somebody driving that late one night and thoughtfully looking up at the stars, and saying look at that" some buggers stolen my cab roof" L.O.L
2 tractors I wish we kept when we've moved farms and came to Canada were the old ih 523 agrimatic we had on the dairy farm in England that thing was bomb proof on a loader feeding silage, doing all the yard work and loading and hauling 10.000 bales a year for 80 cows. we had the IH1046 with the rare comfort 2000 cab in wales on our grain farm, she ploughed with a big Kvernland / press, towed a 4mMF 30 drill and hauled grain many miles. she'd got over 10K on the clock when we let here go. Thanks for the video, take care both of you.
Mine too was a 135 but the later model a little different it had the square front axle and the rear seal on the crankshaft was a one piece lip seal instead of the 2 piece rope seal rear tyres were 14.9. 24s that thing was a beast very nimble and packed a lot of power for its size sorry I got rid of it for something bigger
That machine is priceless Phil.
Duncan’s made cabs for most makes they started with wooden cabs
where did ye get the roller door behind the barrels of oil in the background Phil, doing a workshop meself atm and am looking for something similar, looks a right job
I am guessing your uncle bought a ford 6700 but I’m more then likely wrong😂
loving the vintage Thursday! by any chance is it a ford 7610
Best investment you ever made I'd say 👍🏻
I think your Uncle latest purchase is a david brown 996?
I reckon your massey is a bog standard 1968 or early 69 model judging by the dash, quadrant and badgebar with a retrofitted cab and hitch which would have been done to most tractors that came out of England.
1000's of hours on a 165 in the 70's. no cab very cold in March in the UK planting barley
Some sort of fastrac is my guess
Well Phip if I’m right she was meant to have red wheel centers as I think the 100 series came that way up until 1966
Rust underneath probably took off the paint
I'd say it's a late 68 early 69 model judging by the dash and badge
Uncle’s purchase is a Ford 4600 2WD?
ford 7810,thanks phill
Red n white international 956.
Mike Mitchell needs to drive her for a few hours to fully appreciate his luxury tractors...!!!
You need to find some sponsors and get that fully restored! In your new clean shed ! Haha just a little play in the steering or is your GPS not turned on 🤣😂
Jesus you'd want to see my yolk. Identical to that bar the cab. The pedals were that worn that someone welded an extra bit onto them and even at that they're still worn
What happened in 2016 that all them tractors got shelved ?
Any experience or thoughts on d abbey dribble bar Phil
Lovely looking tractor.
The 135 is the icon is the Massey's I have one and it is on a sheer grab and it is no bother to it
We have one of those big sun roofs on are international 674 it blew of in a storm
Did your uncle buy a fordson dexta?
Would that 135 be able to work the diet feeder Phil?
5610 is my guess Phil ..
Good 😌 video farmer 👨🌾 Phil are you going to get it 135 restored keep safe 👍👍🇬🇧🇬🇧🏴🏴🚜🚜😌😌😌👨🌾👨🌾👨🌾😷😷
That there is a late 68, front axle is key wrong headlights should be aluminum, great wee tractor we had one for 40 years
Should add it outlived a DB990 and a Ford 4000
The 135 came with an absolutely hate variation of cabs on them, doors hardly ever closed properly and everything rattled & squeaked but as far as working they were a joy to own and drive.
I'm guessing ford 7000 cheers Phil 👍
A buddy of min reckons with those old tractors that he could make them hydrostatic/torck like a landscaper compact it would make them some weapon scraping yards .. Do ye think or could you ask you vuers if its possible as I'm a groundsman and would love on
Some of the industrial masseys were torc drives we have a 165 torc drive
@@FARMERPHIL3690 good on you Phol
I'm going to guess a ford and I'm a big fan of u and your videos I watch all of then and I sub and liked all your videos
Can someone explain why many older tractors have an open back on the cab of them. I get that the cab was an aftermarket design but can to see any while benefit to no back window
Just pray if its raining you will be driving into the rain rather than reversing into it, lot of fellas myself included would reach in from the rear to move the lift arm control etc and a cab would get in the way, something was better than nothing
They did have a back windo that opens up , very bouncy cabs and the glass broke alot hence back window usaly removed
Lot of early tractor cabs a clear plastic roll up rear cover which stayed rolled up and usually went rotten.
Those Duncan cabs did come with back windows
I think you bought a Ford 7610
Would it be a fordson major or dexta
I say ye have
Every massey tractor
Great videos and amazing knoedgr that your dad has. I'm guessing a Ford 1971 3000 2wheel drive
Phil I have a 135 and the steering is very heavy on it ,what do you think is wrong, I've drove other ones and their light thanks Phil
Make sure its all greased and the steering box is full of oil/grease
@@OliverLee390 thanks Oliver I'll check the steering box
Could be the front spindle bearing, says Father Phil.
@@FARMERPHIL3690 many thanks Father Phil , I'll check it out I'd love to have your knowledge
Possibly a Ford 3000 or a David Brown 850/880or 990
David Brown 885
re bonjour une belle vidéo j ai appris a conduire la dessus de très beau souvenir 👍👍👍👍
I reckon it's a super major
International 475 Perkins power
From what it looked in the hedge to after a wash it looks like a different tractor altogether
Zetor Crystal is my guess
It must be tricky to get a battery in with that cab or does it tilt back
David brown 1390
Why has there been less vintage work done since 2016 Phil ?
I’m guessing a ford 7600. Sold mine 25 years ago All ways regretted it!
Fordson super dexta
Fiord 7840 is what I reckon or a ford 8210
Ford 8210 I would think is what ye are getting as your latest purchase
Respray it in the spray room u have
First tractor I drove we still one at work 40+ years later new tractor is a Ford 4000 ? 🤔👍👌
Uncles tractor is a Ford 7810 golden jubilee
Last week we bought a fully restored Massey Ferguson 35
