From 1955 through 1966, my father, Franklin W. Musser, my brother, Robert Musser, and I were in the Massey Ferguson business, F.W. Musser & Sons, in Spring Mills, Pa. During that time period we only received one Massey Ferguson 150 into our dealership. Today, I collect them when I can find one. It is my understanding few were made. All three of mine have been completely restored. I regret not taking photos before restoration. I would enjoy hearing from others interested in Massey Ferguson tractors.

    I am looking at a 150 Massey ferguson. The two stage clutch is bad. The first stage that is for the pto does not disengage. What can I expect for problems and coast to fix? Also could hydralic outlets be added to run external cylinders? Thanks for any info. Gene

    I have just recently purchased a MF 150. Its in well-used condition and looks a bit ugly but works wonderfully. It has the continental gas motor with 6 forward gears (2-speed rear-end). I love it and cannot wait to partially dissasemble and clean up. It really only needs some gaskets and leaks fixed. It has the MF 235 loader which works but the loader needs to be completely disassembled and then jigged and re-welded. The hydraulics on the loader work well but some hoses need to be replaced. I plan on removing the loader for overhauling and then using the tractor next summer to mow my 4 acres. They are wonderful machines!

    I am looking for any information )if any) on a 1921 Massey Ferguson tractor. I have been offered on and am considering getting it. I have only been able to see partial of the tractor as it is under a big pile of stuff. Looks like little rust paint is orange. I am not even sure it is a Massey Ferguson. Any information would help.
