I know most of you guys dont like Massey, but I like the greenbacks. It wasnt a total resto, just fix some leaks, and injection pump, and paint. Maybe this will inspire me to paint some of the orange that needs it.

She looks great. I think sompin like that would be great for a hobby farm bush hogger and snow plow tractor. The ones I've seen traded in in that size at our local Massey dealers all seem to have the crap beat out of them and covered in grease and oil with bald tires.

Those 245 MF are a nice size. We had a couple of them on a farm in Peru that I worked at a long time ago, and the fans kept breaking the shaft into the water pumps. Made great sliced radiator parts very quickly. Otherwise never had a complaint.

Sweet, you did a great job painting it. We sold a bunch of them! They were a great little tractor.

Most 230-245's sold had underneath exhaust. And we even sold a few larger ones with underneath exhaust.
As for 200's being the worst, I don't think so. Only 2 of 1st production ones had problems. 235 had power steering gear box problems and wasn't to long getting fixed- replaced with the 230 & 245 models. and 1st 255 with the 203 motor had a bad vibration problem, shook gage's,dash & could you could feel it in foot rest as well! Kits were made for it and 235. Wasn't long until it (255) had 236 motor in it, detuned at lower hp than 265 with 236. Overall they were good tractors and we sold a Hundreds of them. Some like them, some don't. But Massey and Ford had the majority of under 100hp market in a lot of areas. And still quite a few around yet today. All colors have there problems!
