Hello from South Carolina! So good to find her channel by accident on RU-vid or by gods grace which ever one you choose. My wife and I just purchased a mid 70s we didn't look at the tag Massey Ferguson 10 lawnmower with our lawn tractor with mower deck. My brother found it for my wife.
Her hopes are to restore it to full glory. Not to mention she wants to make hers as beautiful as my Massey Ferguson! The Daddy! She's already been split rebuilt by my own hand. So it's exciting to find a fellow lover of the tractor. Good luck to you.
The Massey model 10 and 12 just keep going and going. Mine sat for 10 years in my back yard, weeds and trees growing up through it and I changed the gas and put in a battery and have been using it weekly for the last 5 years. I would love to restore mine, but no time. You should definitely restore it while you can enjoy it. But it looks like it is in great shape, even the parts tractor is nicer than mine.
