Vision in red part 2

Harry has had his Massey Ferguson 35 tractor revamped.
First registered August 1962.

It has all been re sprayed, parts renewed & he has at last used the brand new seat I bought him for his birthday about ten years ago.....
As you can imagine a very happy man!!
It will be at work mowing the field as soon as the weather dries up.



Three good things:
1. A very nice lunch out.
2. Lydia & Jack are coming tonight.
3. St Georges Day. England's National Day.
One of my good work mates has just sold his old MF - it was 1960-something model...he said it ran like a dream. I'm guessing he didn't use it so much since he sold some of his land. nice collage Pat, it looks in stunning nick...and a great colour!

I've never seen such a beautiful tractor and I don't think it should be taken out in the mud - or rain!

@sparkle @quietpurplehaze @beryl
Should have said that this tractor has worked really hard in its life & for more than thirty years has been used as a scraping out tractor on our dairy farm. That means it went up & down the passages in the cubicle house ( that's the big building where all the cows slept & ate) scraping all the muck down slats into an underground holding tank.
It was always well looked after but never looked as good as this before!

@baalst as above...I missed you off by mistake!

I love old farming equipment - they've done a great job on this, it looks like it was made yesterday!
April 23rd, 2014  
That is one smart tractor!
April 23rd, 2014  
What a beauty!! Love that you bought him a tractor seat!
April 23rd, 2014  
Wow, you'd think it was brand new! Very smart. Great collage.
April 23rd, 2014  
What a smart looking tractor. I bet Harry is very proud
April 23rd, 2014  
It looks so good he won't want to use it and get it dirty.
April 23rd, 2014  
oo it does look very fine indeed.
April 23rd, 2014  
Great collage Pat, very eye catching.
April 23rd, 2014  
Fabulous shots, and wonderful collage

John has always wanted a "Fergie"! He looks at all the old wrecks in fields around and eyes them sadly! No longer on a big property that is all he will be able to do! The seat looks very comfy. Good to know there are no steep slopes on your place - too many tractor accidents here! Say hello to George for me!

Nice tracker! I love its colour!
April 23rd, 2014  
How satisfying, it looks amazing - I hope he enjoys sitting in his 'new' red tractor.
April 23rd, 2014  
Brilliant Pat , Love it, Fave Fave Fave

April 24th, 2014  
A sharp looking tractor indeed, and the color is hot
April 24th, 2014  
Nice collage, what a great face lift. How on earth is he going to get it dirty again now.
April 24th, 2014  
Wow - a beauty! Great collage showing her off.
April 24th, 2014  
Gorgeous collage! what a fabulous tractor! :)
April 24th, 2014  
It's looking very shiny. I wonder how long it's going to stay like that.
April 24th, 2014  
Wow it looks super, I remember when these tractors were just Ferguson and all grey
