Very cool!
I just traded in a 1975 MF 240 for a new MF 1739. The 240 came with the farm and I spend a lot of time learning how to work on diesels.
The 240 is a tractor, the 1739 more a tool, if that makes sense.
Twenty years ago:
A few days ago:
I no longer "farm/farm" and have moved to cash cropping: I get paid a set amount per acre per year and the real farmer takes all the risks, so I no longer needed the old workhorse.
It is all about hydrostatic!
Good luck with the old MF. Mine never let me down! The local dealer is also very good so all my work on the tractor was basic maintenance and repair. In the beginning, they came out to get me started on assessing the tractor, then providing instruction and tools. Bottom line, WD and others are a better resource
