Massey Ferguson 180 

In 1971 Grandpa bought two 175’s that I still have today doing light duty pulling trailers. My first tractor I played on was a JD 420 but I have way more play time on those 175’s. Those tractors will NEVER become a refrigerator as long as I’m alive, and I plan on being around for a long time. The 100 series Massey in one of the best looking tractors ever designed and boy they look good when restored. Those young men did a wonderful job restoring the tractor and you have a fantastic program to polish those young men. May I add table manners and etiquette to further refine them. Proper manners helped this ole boy.

. I tell you sir I think it's great thing you are doing for those young men. They are very lucky to have someone like you to guide them. My dad bought a 180 used with a rusted out wheel and a few other minor problems when I was about 9 or 10. He was a welder so patching that up was not a problem. I thought it was a massive machine compared to the little Fords we had then. I really liked operating it. Take care

Building young men…. Honest, hard working, disciplined, well rounded young men, keep up the great work and guidance, oh yea, great looking tractor too.

Thanks for the excellent video. We had a MF 180, upgrading from a MF 165. Bigger tractor but still had the usual MF hydraulic pump issues. Be that aside, I drove that tractor a lot when I was in high school growing up on the farm north of Glidden, Iowa. Pulling grain wagons, baling hay, pulling flat racks, plowing and discing. Thanks again for bringing back some wonderful memories!

I have one just like it . Runs great , needs to be restored . I use it for clearing land and creating pasture. It is a beast

We had a number of Massey-Ferguson tractors on our dairy farm in Ontario, Canada. My Dad bought new the following tractors: MF65, MF180, MF165, MF1080, MF1105, and a used MF3165 Industrial tractor loader. We also owned various Massey-Ferguson hay balers, hay rakes, ploughs and Combines; we always had the right piece of equipment for the job. My Dad is gone now, and some of my fondest memories of our dairy farm are of the tractors we had, including the MF180.

Very nice! I'm getting ready to re-bearing and seal the rear planetary unit on my Grandfather's 180. He bought it brand new at about the same time as yours. Grandpa has passed, but my Aunt still farm's with a bit. The 180 is one of the 1st tractors I got to drive. It doesn't look near about as nice as yours! Thanks for sharing your 180 story!

What beautiful story ! & restoration , & you can see the pride the young men put into it with the guidance from a strong teacher with discipline ! Again a beautiful restoration on the M-F 180 , & M-F has always meant Mighty-Fine tractors to me . Thank You for sharing the story with us .

I loved my 180 and I'd like to have another. I am from Cowgill Missouri

That is beautiful wish my grandfather's 180 i grew up on and inherited could get rebuilt like that its incredible

The 180 was my favourite tractor in the early seventies It features that a bigger model had

I had one of those 180s and it was a good tractor.

That is one beautiful and awesome tractor 🚜.

That's a "better than new" job on that 180. Just a wonderful looking job.

Very nice tractor! We had a Massey 180 on our farm. It was the very first tractor that I drove also when I was a kid.

Great machine and even better program

Beautiful job Love it

Multi power was a Cadillac option for Massey. They should've put a warning sticker on it to not use when under heavy loads pulling. Nice tractor. Massey Ferguson is a very good tractor

Thank you Dan, That was really good. To watch. Cheers Roy.

my father bought one brand new in 1969 nice comfortable tractor the first deisel on the farm first diesel i drove not the first tractor i drove my first was a john deere b i would like to buy one some day and restore it nice tractor nice video i enjoyed watching

That’s a great program 👍🏻

Such a beautiful specimen! That's something to be proud of right there! Also I did not realize how big a MF 180 was! I always thought they were about half that size.

My uncle had one years ago, it was a gasser. Traded it in on a 275 diesel. It was a good tractor as well

A next door neighbor had a 180, as a kid spent alot time on it! As usual it had hydraulic problems so he traded it for a 1100, what a beast that was!

The 180 was the row crop version of the standard clearance MF 175.. Same thing just boosted up to clear row crops I noticed in earlier photos that the battery side panel was missing. We did the same thing with the MF 150D. Doing so was the only reasonably easy way to get at the battery. The 100 series MF was a tremendous power take off tractor. Nothing else was an even close second. But when it came to heavy tillage work they were lacking. The 1100 began the change over to a more complete and better balanced tractor and are still in demand today especially with your weekend side gig farmers.
