Will it start? Abandoned Ferguson TO-35!
Вставка
- Опубліковано 20 чер 2024
- I found a Ferguson TO-35 loader tractor with a twist, the transmission broke on the owner years back and now I’m gonna take on the project. And, there is yellow paint under the red. Could it have been an industrial?

The man will send a John Deere tractor down the road quicker than a step-child off to summer camp!😂
😆😆
Lmao
Hey JT , big thanks for the shout out 👍👍👍 if I was more local 😂😂 I’d have a busman’s holiday n come n kick ass with u and a few 🍺🍺 obviously 😂 nice little 35 there ! Good project , will be keen to see progress ! All the best Massey Dave 👍👍 and thanks to any of you subscribers who can follow me and see the stuff we do here the other side of the pond 👍👍👍👍👍
Right on Dave!
You cease to amaze me JT. Since I have never seen or heard a dog shittin in a bucket. I can sure as hell take your word for it. Great new addition to your ever growing collection.
Thanks!
Why is American old tractors nearly all petrol . Definitely a diesel man
I noticed the Ford fenders? I spent a lot of my childhood on a Massey FERGUSON 35. We did a lot of work with that tractor that should’ve been done but we made do! Love all Massey’s. Thano
They are a tough little tractor
We had a 35 special with a Continental engine with a homemade front end loader our dad made and we used that thing for everything.....
It was a great ole tractor for us kids to learn on!!!!
Right on!
the ones we got over here in europe was the 1200, 1250 and the 1505, there were some 4840's and 4880's sold but they can be counted on two hands, the rest of them was all you guys fun and pleasure in the US 😎
Right on!
With the beautiful logo on the fenders, you just became my new best friend! 😂😂
Right on 😆😆
Got to love the Ford fenders on a Massy Ferguson.
By which I hope you mean, rip them ugly cursed things off. They're probably the reason the shift fork broke ;)
Ha! Very possible 😆😆
I've been thinking about this one for a few days ... I think you are right. Put that loader onto a huskier tractor. Clean this one up and send it down the road to a happy collector.
Right on
Having an 8-N, an NAA, or Ferguson around for little jobs is a good idea. This one runs and doesn't knock. You're well on your way. Replace that generator with a one wire alternator while you're throwing money at it.
Definitely! Can’t go wrong with those
From Denmark,
It is always exciting to see what you have found of old Massey
ferguson
It's great that you're so into it, I do too
Thumbs up
Right on! Thanks!
Nice job dude ive been watching you for awhile now and im happy to see you able to expand and improve, keep up the good work dude
I appreciate that! Thanks!
JT, it would be cool to see you do the Ferguson TO-35 in MF red, that would be so cool. Maybe the loader off the TO-35 might work on the MF-165, but I thinking maybe not. You might be better looking for a loader that would fit the 165 and finish the TO-35. It would also be cool to see you paint the "Mr. Lifter"!! LOL!!
Right! I need to get that one painted up nice!
When Fluffy did the cat scan, I'm sure she had some doubts
I think she did
That "cat scan" showed a busted starter housing! Order a new one of those!
I love what you're doing with all these machines. Fixing the new one would be great, maybe putting the loader on the bigger tractor would be a safer unit to use especially if it's that oversized. BUT. I think that amazing forklift is due for some lipstick, even in the commercial yellow, it's factory. That I'd love to see! It's proved its worth and you've said that a few times.... just my thoughts...
I’ll be polishing up that forklift in the near future 😉
Hey JT Nice deal for the M-F 35. I've had my 1959 M-F 50 for 27 years now wouldn't get rid of it for anything; I had to put a shifter fork in mine as well I couldn't get a new one so I had to get a used one. Since I was going to that I went ahead put in new piston rings valve stem seals, & did a valve job on it; Along with a Pertronix electronic ignition in not to mention new tires. seat cushion, & rewired the whole baby along with putting in a rear remote hydraulic switch in. Of course the later Items came after awhile; Oh and a vertical exhaust on as well. If You end up keeping M-F 35 the one thing you'll like about a gasser is how easy they start up during the winter, & those Z134 Continental engines are very reliable. Mine has the M-H-F stamp marks on it as well, & I believe they had them till the early 60's. I did notice your 35 has wheel weights for the loader so it looks like it came with the loader when it was new. Again nice job getting home , & running. GET THAT MAN A BEER🍺🍻!
Will do! My 165 had the gas Perkins motors, good starter and not bad on fuel!
It’s not a bad little tractor, not the greatest loader tractor in my opinion, due to no power steering, short wheelbase and light in the rear, but it’s yours and you can do whatever you want. I do like your idea about a loader on your little Massey, you already have and know. The design of the old loader is less than ideal and not the most streamlined. Be interesting to see what you find inside the little Massey, I think the hunt for a decent loader tractor continues. Thanks for the Videos, JT. I’m down by Ann Arbor and it was hot in the neighborhood this week. Hopefully the crops are enjoying the weather and occasional rain. Have a Good Weekend.
Thanks! She was a hot one up here!
Fine old machine. I have a Model 50 (Perkins Diesel) with MF 100 loader. It also has a front pump. The hi-low range speeds are superb IMHO. Good luck…👍
Very cool!
Be kind to women too! 👍👍👍 Cool tractor JT! Can´t wait to see that ol girl running again! 🤠👍
You and me both!
I love your channel jt keep up good work. love farming vidoes
Thanks! I appreciate that!
When you introduced that forklift to the channel i thought to myself youd hardly use that thing. Wow was i ever wrong woth that. That old forklift has to be one of the most valuable tools you have on your operation.
Right! I use that almost every day lol
Nice to see that green thing go, you'll love that to35 once you get her sorted out. I've got 2 to30's that definitely earn their keep along side my 165...
Right on!
Fix her up buddy she’s worth it I love your content would be a nice little handy tractor to have around I wouldn’t put the loader on it tho
Right on!
I thought it sounded like something was rubbing while it was running, but you never know what the microphone is picking up. Gotta split it anyway, so you will find out sooner or later.
That's one generation of tractor that never made sense to me. Ford... Massey... Ferguson...? Retired neighbor had one. Used it to move snow in the winter. Well he passed away and I jump on it to clear the snow for his wife. Bad exhaust leak, and running so rich the three point arm and blade were black. I take back to my place in the spring. Get the exhaust leaks sorted, and the exhaust properly supported with something more than bailing wire. Go to adjust the carburetor and it doesn't respond at all. Crank the fuel screws down... zero difference. Pull the carb to find it didn't have a single jet in it anywhere. I was stunned that it ran as well as it did. Tossed a couple jets in it and took it straight back before I found anything else...
Right! This will water your eyes lol
Cool find its worth fixing. If that tractor was factory yellow its probably pretty rare and i would paint it back yellow otherwise it would just be solid gray.
That’s what I was thinking!
Morning JT nice little project there some JT magic on it and away we go ❤stay safe out there sir 👍
Thanks 👍
Glad it didn't damage the hood to bad when it fell!
Right!
Those are decent little tractors I know a old man who uses a to-35 to cut his lawn I believe he told me his was a 60’ model that he bought in 72’
Nice! That would be a good job for it!
Wow! Never heard a starter make a shot moose sound before? Haha! Your awesome JT!
Thanks!
Nice little find .that hood rolling forward makes it nice to work on . Massey red😁 . 👍 Great video JT , keep them coming
Thanks, will do!
Good Morning J T, Well ya know, that 2010 was a lot better than the TO 35 in my opinion. I once had a TO30 HARRY FERGUSON, it was a great little tractor, but not very big, and not much lifting power, but it never totally let me down. HA😅 , FLUFFY is looking well, she is probably glad that it is finally SUMMER. 😊
Right on! The 2010 is twice what this is, but I wanted to help a friend out 😉
well friends, good to see another saved and to spend some time with you all, thanks for sharing enjoy all your video's
Thanks 👍
Excellent video JT :) Ferguson Tea 30 also fix up that tractor it nice small one with loader and you can fix up too! Also nice find too and nice hear Dave across pond has some you want on tractors! Yes Fork lift helps too agree to that JT 👍 👏 👌 😄!
Right on!
What a little gem JT! Nice find! At least it’s the right color for your fleet!
You got that right!
Or will be very soon 😉
Love the new project JT!!
Thanks!
Good stuff JT !
Thanks 👍
Great project 👍
Thanks!
Thanks for posting JT
You bet
Pick up a 35 myself couple of weeks ago- little newer than yours- got a 3 cylinder diesel in it- great find
Oooh! That’s a nice one
When you go to paint it take it back to its original color. I like the yellow.
I do too!
Another great video. Interesting to follow this new project👌
Right on!
Rebuild, Rebuild, Rebuild,,rare piece.
👍🏼
Great video JT 💯 always love to see things getting fixed up 😊👍....
Thanks 👍
Great content JT have a great weekend 👍
Thanks, you too!
Cool little project, I just picked up a non running 9n for fun. Always looking forward to the next upload. 👍👍
More to come! Thanks!
Wow JT brought back some happy memories of the old Grey Ferguson we had on the farm. It ran on petrol and paraffin or TVO as it was called ( Tractor vaporising Oil). You used to start it on petrol, then when engine was warm turn tap over to the tvo tank but leave it running all day as tvo was cheap.
Hope you work the JT magic on this old girl.🇺🇸🇬🇧👍
Oh will!! It’ll be good as new!
JT you might check the front axle pivot pin and bushing. I know on the little Fords it tends to be forgotten there is a grease zerk so the pin wears out the bushing. I was called upon to weld the pivot pin bore because it had gotten egg shaped. I used 7014 and some torch heat. Machinist bored it out to original spec and pressed in new bushing. AL B.
Right on! I’ll look for that
Thanks jt that made my Friday night 👍i am sure you make something beautiful out of here cheers from down under 🇦🇺
Glad you enjoyed it
Nice video JT
Thanks!
I wonder how many people know, just how much they owe Harry Ferguson; even the JD guys. What a great find, JT!
That is very true!
Btw, I think the 165 would be perfect recipient of the bucket. Then Fergie could be show-only.
Looks to be a nice project 👍
Thanks!
Hello everyone great vidéo jt's and good new loader tractor
Thanks 👍
Chalk up another one for the massey whisperer 😅😊
Great video as usual!
Thanks!
Great video JT, anything you work on is fine , 👍🏻
Right on!
Hi JT in the little time that you have had that forklift it sure has payed for it self....keep up the good work
That has been the best investment I’ve ever made lol
That little tractor will be as handy as a pocket on a shirt. Looking forward to the repair video. Thx
Thanks 👍
Nice tractor and a great project. Loved my Ferguson 40, sorry I sold it years ago.
Right on!
Great job Fluffy
Thanks! 😄
Fluffy's the best!
That shifter more than likely just needs the pin put back in it. I have a ton and the pin likes to fall out. Luckily I have never lost the pin!
Right on! Maybe!
Good J T . You got the massey ferguson fixed up .
You bet!
Might be like a cars ignition. Resister to coil when running. But starter solenoid has a S terminal for full battery voltage by passing the resister when cranking engine. Points can’t handle 14.3 volts steady when running.
Right on
Yes Massey Dave is a 1200/1250 specialist. Nothing he doesn't know or can't do with those models in particular.
Right on!
Excellent addition to the fleet and Fluffy approved. I think you need a front end loader so the question kinda answers itself.
Good call! 😉
Those old TOs and 8Ns are sweet little tractor. I am sure even if you do not keep the loader on it, there will be a use for it. Looking forward to this project.
Right on!
Gotta fix the 35!!!!!!!
Then find a 65!!
Right on!
JT if it helps you in the future. We cut holes in the end of the forks that way you could use a couple Clevis to hook the chain to. Or if you hook the chain like you had in the video you can put pins in the holes so the chain couldn’t slide off. Plus we would use a 3pt lower pin to bolt to the fork to move tractors around by going under the drawbar up through the hole and pick up on the tractor and move them around. Just some ideas that always made my life easier when I had to move around dead equipment. Love your channel and keep up the great work.
Thanks for the tips!
You can also bolt a tow ball on the fork and move trailers
Nice little project you got there 🙂
I have a 1954 TE-20 (diesel) waiting for a complete fixup. Starts up a little unwilling, but they are known for that. Leaks here and there, and rear tires are like on your TO-35: cracked up and totally worn out 🙂
Hope you end up fixing it. I would love to follow the process.
Right on! I’m sure I will 😉
Have seen the end ball of the shift lever worn down and it jumps out of the notches in shift rails. Lift boot. Pull side pin. Remove lever. Reach down with screwdriver. Move all into neutral. Weld a little add on to shift lever. But then if rail is broke. That’s a different story.
Right. Have to dig into it to see
Well look at that it RUNS 😳.. AN all original TO 35 with loader and wheel weights. Found a GEM ! Shifter is an easy fix.. Starter is available BY AMAZON or GOOGLING . Lets get this ol' girl reddy for the barn dance. Thanks
Will do!!!
I used to own a grey Fergie. '47 or '48 it was. first owner had it repowered with a 3 cylinder diesel conversion in '53 and painted up like a 53 model so it was red and grey. Didn't do much to it as I had too many projects and not enough time and space so I swapped it against much needed Land Rover parts !
Cheers, Ard
That’ll happen. I’m starting to get too many projects lol
Hi JT. Liking all the Massey stuff, Im in Australia and we have lots of Massey 135, 148, 165, 168, 175, 178 etc. So i would be great if you could stuff on them. Keep up the good work
Sounds great!
I like the custom Ford fenders lol
Right!
JT,
The MF forklift sure runs a lot smoother. Did you work the carb over?
The pink paint on your new project may need some love.
Thanks, Boe 🍻🍻
She’s just getting better the more I use it. 😉
we has a NNA Jubilee my grandfather bought new still in active use into the 80s ... these little tractors can still do an honest days work if they are mechanically sound
Right! They are a tough little tractor
Go ahead with the little loader tractor.
Will do
A tip i know you probably already do this but i would recommend using non ethanol or premium to save your carb
For sure!
When the Massey was getting pulled out of the weeds your device spotted Ford script fenners on the rear.WHAT?!😮 AL B.
Yep, don’t know the story with those
Think I said when you bought it you’d wonder how you managed before the forklift 👍 they are so useful
Bingo! I’d be lost without that
😢Jt there isn't anything you can't fix. Love the quick attach loader. Betting its just a pin out of the shifter.😂😂😂
Thanks! I give it my best shot!
I'll go with that Toyota Hilux that Top Gear spent forever trying to destroy. That old truck was in desperate shape many times before it actually kicked the bucket for good.
I think You used to watch a TV show a lot of years back, Sanford and Son LOL I think your yard is building up to what that show was about !!! LOL.
Just kidding OK I enjoy watching you get the old stuff up and running.
Ha! My wife says that too lol
58 was a Fabulous year! They made us well😂😂😂
Right on 😆
Same year I was produced! 😅
I just watched a video by Charles Phoenix about a ‘58 Buick Super. Wow
Seat looks like from an older tractor. All 35s that I have seen had both back and seat cushions.
This may have at one point
JT since you have the tractor might as well repair it and paint it then see what it will bring. Who knows maybe you’ll like it. Just thinking out loud
I am thinking I’ll do that
The forklift will save years of wear and tear on your back. You will definitely have to make sure you produce some content giving it some love.
It will, it’s too handy to have in the shop for too long lol
I think you have lost loader capacities with selling the JD. Maybe rebuild and sell this ferguson to buy a correct loader for the 165, you will retrieve the same workhorse but in red ;)
I agree! Would like loader on the 165!
Floyd fired right up!
He did! Pink Floyd is a runner 😆
@@jtsbarnngrill6873 😁
Hi thanks for another interesting video, now we know why the starter sounded like it fell in the bucket after the dog finished L.O.L. If that deal was mine I'd fix it up as cheap as possible hope to sell it on the right side of a profit and go buy a proper loader to fit the 165 or put the money to another better loader tractor project . I've converted loaders to fit different tractors before some were easy some not so. Now the steel and parts costs a fortune to, and that old loaders a pig of a thing on what it fits properly by the looks of it. Take care
Right on!
Good ole Massey's. It's got to run fluffy came out gave it cat scan. Another fun video.
Thanks 👍
I think the loader would be better on the 165, but I would still fix up the 35 as you may be able to sell it, or stick a bin on the back for shifting stuff.
I actually leaned to drive at 7 years old on a 35x. ..
Right on! That loader may end up on the 165
Nice one j.t. I watch dave . He helped out another UA-cam I watch. By looks off things you got another one. Don't think it's got right fuel tank should have 2 places to fill . Don't think loader will fit your 165. Shame you weren't closer iv got a 165 loader and a 135 cab doing nothing. You might want to go back to that scrapyard to see about that massey he had. But great video as normal all ways great to watch .from Andy in uk
I didnt think of that, I’ll have to check with Wayne on that!
@jtsbarnngrill6873 I believe it should be same as hours over here. Its one tank but one is small for petrol to start it. Then bigger side should bo to take the t.v.o fuel. I forgot got to say in your combin video did you beef up the pump bracket.
OOOhhhh ... a whole 35 horsepower VROOM VROOM 😁
All the power 😆
JT The starter was probably a 6 v .same thing happened to our to30 when we changed it to 12v ,if I remember right was able to get a 12v for it.
Right on!
The 135 MF were bad for jumping the fork and leaving it in gear. Take the oil filler cap off and you can jump it back with a bar to neutral.
My dad has a 135 that always does that
The old Massey Forkuson sure comes in handy even if it's the wrong color.
It sure does!
That Massey is built Ford tuff
Ha! Sure is lol
12:25 i jumped! it'll buff out..... I hope the eye hook welds aren't indicative of the other loader welds!
31:58 I think you can hear grinding on the video when the engine starts earlier...
I hope the rest holds up! Yeah, that starter was bad immediately
You will hate the steering in that thing lol. From frying pan straight into the fire going from Jonny to that thing. Not being a ass just saying. Love your videos and please keep them coming..
Right, I figure I have my forklift for all the heavy stuff now
33 min. Now you are talking my kind of minutes 😂😂
I say find the right size rototiller for the ferguson. Perfect for working up the garden.👍
Right on!
Love you're channel. Where's a good place to get Massey parts? I have a high crop 65 and wanted to fix some front and issues
I usually get my parts on line for the most part
You just know JT will get any old tractor running.
I sure give it my best shot!
