I grew up on my great grandfather's model 65. He was a tight wad so he waited until the new model (135,165, 175) came out and bought our 65 (we still have it) in 1965. I heard he had an Oliver before that, but also heard it was a Farmall M. Either way I'm an MF man for life because of that ancient iron beast. Once I get it from my aunt I'm going to restore it to like new and drive it in parades and stuff.
You have more than $200 in spare parts in that tractor, but you in a position of where if it requires some labor and parts it will take ton of either to make it a financial loss. Good pick!
Got a 56 massy 65 and she's a workhorse!!! The only thing I don't like about it is both the gear shifter and hi &low range has to be in neutral for it to turn over.
Hello I would love that 65 . It Would fit nicely in my shed between a Massey Ferguson 30 and a super 90. But theirs a small problem l live in Tasmania. Stay safe Kerry.
