abandoned these tractors in the woods a few years ago, which one should I fix and will they start?
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
So in a few weeks there's a local tractor run that I would quite like to go on, I was looking on eBay for a tractor to buy, then I remembered that I have two rather broken tractors sat in the wood slowly rotting away, wouldn't it be better to get one of those back up and running instead? Now I will only have a an afternoon to focus on this realistically, so need to be sensible in which one I take on. So in this video I will have a look at the pair of them and see if I can realistically get one of them going in time for the event!

Do the Massey. Strip it down and sort it!!! It will be massively more useful around the yard too

Massey, I like yellow
The Massey will be a nice project.. a yes for me!!
Gotta be the Massey if you've got the time before the run
That’s one of the straightest 30E’s I’ve seen. Well worth getting going and giving a bit of tlc
Gotta be the yellow massey its something different and looks better than the brown
Do the massey more work but a more superior tractor at the end.
Use the crank hydraulic pump as a hydraulic motor ? Connect the lines up to another pump and use that to rock the engine over ?
Gotta be the DB for the run with the timescale you have, then get the Massey going as much better workhorse round yard. Be sure to take us all along with you! 😁
The Massey will be very useful but I would say the DB for a road run! Keep up the good work Matt
Does this mean Fitter Matt's on the Case?.... I'll get my overalls.
MF Yellow 30E option 2, not because it is more work, but because it will be harder to get out.
Definitely the Broon. Drove one the same on farm years ago when Adam was a lad. 👍

They are good old busses
Do both 😂, the db sounds lovely when running remember driving a case 1394 d reg when I was 16
Do the yeller one, option 2 Massey
I have big respect for fitter Matt. 👊🇬🇧
Try George Forman’s Engineering they make Grills that will fit.👍
Do the brown this year and recondition the engine in the massey next year thanks for the video 👍
I reckon doing the Massey would be better, worth the work. Though to be fair, the DB would be far quicker to get sorted!
Yea work on the massy and good 🤞
The yellow Massey is the better tractor but it'll take more doing to get it working. Very much a long term project, I'd say. The Brown is an absolute shed but it should be easier to get vaguely working.
I have a sort spot for Massey but the brown looks cooler
Definitely the "Knees Up Mother Brown" if it's more road ready Matt. 😃😃

It would definitely be easier
I can see its a bigger job Matt, but got to he the Massey 🤠
The brown is basically a mint runner now, so do the Massey!
Massey option 2
Now I might give you more work (not that it bothers me😆) but do the Massey or you’ll just be another DB on the run… bet there’s no Massey industrials on it! DB ran sweet though 👌
You’ve only got two weeks, do the Brown 😎👍
Yellow one is a must
Got to be fix the brown
Have to be the DB for the tractor run but getting the Massey going again would make a good series
for me it would be the brown tbh just cuz I like old case tractors ;D
That brown is running sweet

Brown just for the run this year with your limited time but defo get the Massey up and running as you don’t see too many of them
As a 1390 owner gotta be the brown.
Would love a video on getting the brown road ready

The brush has definitely done some work in its time
I think the Brown will be more fun for the rally, seeing what's left of it by the time you (possibly) make it back.
I'd say the advantage is for the Brown as a quick "fun" project (if you find the parts you need). The Massey sounds like it would be a more long term project, but very useful in the end.
Brown, it has that classic farm look about it, & you said the Massey is on the list anyway.
Massey!!! Infinitely more useful and interesting, last tractor run I saw there were at least 4 browns

A lot more useful, but potentially more work than I can get done in the afternoon Ile have spare
Option 2 the Massey 😊
Do them both... mini resto series 💪💪💪
Brown this year, Massey for next year
The brown but a video for doing them both up
Joint project with Lord Muck and the Fud Weasel?
DB for the run buy massy will make a good series of vids

@@fittermat broon would be alright for tractor run. Some Led lights in the cab for fun!
Fix the brown for a quick win
I was just about to vote for David Brown, but then I thought I'd like the Massey to come back to life and run that in your 'parade'. I don't mind ( read that, care ) how much work it takes because my hands will not be the ones getting all full of oil, dirt etc. ( or as old Arthur used to say, " shit, muck and bullets ). Yes, g'on run the Massey.
Have to get the massey going.
Get the auld broony sorted for this year's run. Then get onto the massey as I'm sure it will make for some excellent video content.👍🏻
Got to be the Brown. Reward for being loyal and firing up 👌🏻
Brown as it has go faster strips!
It's the Massey for me
I'll go Broon 👍
The massey ferguson every time!!!!😊
David brown for me
got to be the david brown good dependable tractor you could contact ron greet for axle and any other parts you need
Massey's definitely the one to go for
engage the pto on the massy and try to turn it if it brakes looce do to time id say move on to the brown
David Brown won’t let you down ( probably)
Id go for davey brown cow
Lord Muck will lend a hand👍😂
Clean the brown one up get it safe and have fun with it

All David brown axles are like that there’s no such thing as good ones 😂 I’ve fixed two axles always been the centre pin got someone to line bore through, oversized bushes made and a new pin lathed up seen some steep prices for DB axles that are ‘good’
Get the brown up and running then you can flip it on and use the money to do the massey and do some youtube videos on it , Win Win.

Fix the Aston Martin. The Jensen Interceptor looks like more work.

Is that a massey industrial i see before me well known for shagged steering
Brown please. Is it not just kingpin bushes or bearings that need to be done for the axle
@fittermat

Probably is, but with how long it’s been left like that I’m guessing that the housings will be work now, a complete axle would be a much quicker fix
Defo the Massey
Option 1, you'll never get the MF done in time You know on those chargers there's a total flat setting because what it's trying to do is charge the battery
Pleas do the Massey Ferguson, pleas😊
Wouldnt be one of your clips without 'oil pissing' out!. 🤣 Do the Massey.
Drag both out sell them and buy something ready to go 🤷♂️💵💵🚜
