Just brought home a 1959 Massey Ferguson Backhoe. It is pretty much a basket case; needs a lot of work. Restoring it will be a long term project.
Why do I need a backhoe you may ask. The answer is I don’t play golf. So I need some other time waster. Some people like working on old cars. I like old tractors.
Of course I don’t need a backhoe but it seemed like a good idea at the time.
