MASSEY FERGUSON 165

How To buy a Massey Ferguson 165 completely unseen....
Its a risk but sometimes it pays off - will it pay off this time ?
Will It Turn Over ? Will It Start ? Will It Run ?

[@ady1397]

I don't know one tractor from another, I'm just here to see the dog🤣

[@SAM__6630]

I have to say mucker, as a 15yr old lad looking for his first tractor these videos are not only very entertaining but I’ve probably learnt more from a couple of your videos than the past month of “school”.😂

[@LordMuck]

Let me know when you've bought one 👌🏼

[@SAM__6630]

@@LordMuck came searching for this comment, but pleased to inform you that I’ve made a recent purchase of a Fordson super dexta! It’s rough but no engine issues (just leeks) she runs sweet, just a few loose and very questionable ends😂

[@adamoreilly254]

I had a 165 for about 30 years it was the best tractor I ever had

[@spex357]

Forty years ago I was sat on a 165 at 06:00am rain or shine, a true workhorse.

[@donaldthomas5852]

The Massey Ferguson 165 and 135 was the first two Massey’s I drove on my own . Earlier my dad had aMF 35 & 65 I rode on them but to young to drive them. We had many different Massey’s under 100hp. Today I have a 1990 MF 3070 92hp. My brothers have a 471, 451, 35. I also have a IMT 539 deluxe it the same as 35 MF with power steering.

[@iharding4161]

Bloody beauty. Couldn’t stop smiling. Can’t wait to see what you do with her. Have to say mind, those two fords at the start were f****n mint 👌🏻👍🏻

[@dakotak8437]

I lost my shit and fell on ice when you said ppl would rather shit in there hands and clap lol

[@robertgarness4014]

We had 2 MF with 203 Perkins in them a 65 mk2 and 165 brilliant engines .thanks for a brilliant channel

[@williamparker6931]

I've seen someone else say the same, I'd like to see a fiat 110 90

[@kuuppafin6011]

How bout 180?🙂

[@edparry8515]

I'd love to see a series of you finding and reviewing high hour tractors still in constant use. High hour heroes

[@edwarddaly570]

I’d like to see a 3000 series Massey, I drove a 3125 for two years and I thought it was the best yoke going

[@colmbriody867]

Ford 7810 series 3. The coolest of old fords in my opinion and still an impressive tractor. Drove them when I was younger and I really want one now.

[@billupstateny9151]

We have a retired MF dealer in the area, that still maintains his business shop, but no longer sells new equipment, His devotion is to vintage models & he has knowledge & a collection of parts that might stock an Assembly Line. Went there once to check if he had a radiator hose that would fit my IH. He threw me out, if it isn't a MF issue, keep out !!

[@trevorjarvis3021]

Sounded spot on!! A real result. Any tractor related stuff is interesting Kurt, anything at all.

[@nicksmith7552]

Nuffield......and a bit of the history of the name would be good. I see one once in a while here in Canada. Till next time Muckers !

[@rangeroverl322]

your one lucky sod. Not only turns over but starts . Fantastic project begins 👍👍

[@tobyyork9502]

I would love to see a Pop'in Johnny, Will it start. I know it is old school but I love those old machines.. Be Well..

[@jimclements3190]

The last two tractors I drove for a job was a 1986 Fiat 160/90 then 1988 Massy Ferguson 3680 Datatronic. Very different tractors but both awesome pullers in their day.Fergy was on 16.9/36 front and 20.8/ 42 rears which I thought was a unique combo then,so either of these two would be nice to see👍.

[@MrBkshorty]

It’s not a remote starter it’s a I’m a lone wolf 5000 trigger “vgg “ lol love the vids guys

[@decalshedsignsco6849]

Great video, love to see the older stuff

[@harezy]

I would like to see a whole series of a full restoration any old girl would do as long as she has a kiss of life!!

[@roberto33812]

My old one came with wide tyres but I managed to get 36 inch from a dealer in Orkney they were off a 300 series but helped with the ploughing great video 👍I still have a lot of parts so just need find another 165 again

[@hubertrobinson8825]

That's a very good tractor you got Lord muck you can make it new again

[@stuartreding2967]

Ok your trip to the coffee shop will make me watch every video all the way through 😂😂 that was hilarious and relatable.

[@andrewclarkehomeimprovement]

When you said it was a Perkins, well, nuff said! Of course it will run. It could be at the bottom of a lake for a decade, it would still run!

[@LordMuck]

If only that were the case with the 175...

[@scottvernon6350]

just found this video,McDonald drive through rant is brilliant, watched it over and over, pissing myself 😂😂😂love it👍

[@WatchWesWork]

Can you make a video explaining why every bloody fastener in that Perkins is fine thread?

[@LordMuck]

It's because they were invented by people who enjoyed stringing the job out so every bolt takes twice as long to undo 😂

[@roveradventures]

Wes and muck commenting. Yup, days made. 😂. Yall are awesome.

[@harrysmyth1618]

My late father bought and sold these. I can recall a couple of these being bought and sold when I was a boy in county Donegal,Ireland. Great memories 👍🏼

My 1969 Massey 165 runs perfectly its a Beast of a machine iv put some crazy loads on the back 3 point. My grandfather had both the 165 and 135 and never had a sized moter.

[@LordMuck]

I doubt your grandfather submerged his tractors...

[@LordMuck]

What a f*cking treat 👌🏼

[@steamfan7147]

I once bought a MF 135 Vineyard that was in a Briar patch for 20 years. The only thing on that tractor that wasn't stuck was the Little Perkins AD3.152 , loyal AF 😆

[@stephenbrown571]

For a no runner that engine sounds pretty good. LOL 😂

[@LordMuck]

That's exactly what we thought !

[@youghal40clashmore]

Thank you for this series, have a 1970 MF165 inherited from my father. Clutch pedal is so worn that you can cut baling twine with the pedal. Same issue engine will not move or turn by hand gives me the confidence to try the same actions.

Just completed my restoration of a MF165 Multi Power last year. Here's one for you My multipower would not work, why someone had removed the pump. Could tell loads of stories about that thing. So watching your video was very good as you never know what your buying in some older tractors. I would like to see you go over a Ford 4600 tractor. Really enjoy your videos like your no nonsense approach.

Fordson super major! Loving the videos, I just recently picked up a 1961 I believe.. Has front end loader and back hoe impressive machine but I don't know much about them

[@robertsedgwick1629]

lol @ churn of destiny 🤣😅🤣

[@jefftheaussie2225]

Podge, Put decent sized tyres on the 165, 18.4x28 and 7.50x16 on the front. That is how they were delivered here and with a proper roller drawbar they were expected to spend their lives pulling machinery that was too big for them. They were a bit under powered compared to their main competition the Chamberlain 9G but most managed to hang together somehow. My Ford 2000 has 14.9x24 on the back and 6.00x16 on the front and looks good shod like that. That is how it would have been optioned when new as well. Jeff.

Love the channel keep them coming thanks

[@super6954]

Thanks for the video, that masseys not bad for it's age. what ever you pick it'll be worth watching. Man I don't remember Cambridge looking like that over 20 years ago. Last time I was up there I took the kid that worked for us, We pulled up 6.30 AM sale day and the kids absolutely amazed to see 3 Masseys the same on a truck going in. I told him you'll shyte your pants when you get in there and there's 200 more of them before you get to the other Massey models or the ford line, he'd never seen so many tractors in one place . That was another day were foreign aid money was being wasted, the auctioneer was standing between the brothers stopping them beating the crap out of each other during bidding wars. It's kinda concerning when the chopping hands off motions start with those boys they aint buggering about ! In normal times do they still have those good heart attack inducing breakfasts they were worth driving from wales for, without going to the sale.. Take care

[@davidguerin4744]

Your reaction at the drive through service same as mine, get another job if you dont like this one, great result with the tractor loved it !

[@Tomcat71]

Best part of all is she didnt smoke a bit. Really healthy Perkins. You can tell that by the fact she had good enough compression to fire right back up with almost no revolutions.

Well we have a few vids being planned where we seize an engine on purpose (end of life) and tear them down to see what happens.👍

[@farmerbill6855]

Always liked that era of Massey's. It's missing the front weight bracket. Kind of gives it an overbite look. I'd be proud to own that one. Expected to see a Joe Pesci insert at the drive thru. Best regards from Indiana.

Nice find there, I missed out on a MF135 a few years back, it was in very good original condition, it was for sale at a farm only five miles from home. The guy wanted £500 ! I told him I would be back with the cash in a couple of hours, the bugger sold it before I got back. It had been on that farm for years , it was the best MF 135 in original condition I had ever seen. I was gutted and not a happy bunny. A few years before that I missed out on a Tripple D . Win some loose some. I did great on three non running JD's a few months later that I had for nothing and sold them on for a great profit. Your vid reminded me on the 135 I missed out on. My Ruston Bucyrus 10 RB is being delivered on Thursday. Will do a vid on that for my channel

A video on a 40 series Ford or new Holland, best series Ford ever made. They have their quirks but at least the engines were bomb proof. Great to see the Massey running what kind of engine is in it. Really interesting video 👍

Brilliant video!
