Marshall's Massey
This is the story and pictures of the restoration of a 1965 Massey Ferguson 135 farm tractor that was owned by long time club member, Marshall Carper. The Massey was originally purchased new in1965 by Marshall's cousin Franklin D. Conner. From then on, it was used on farms in and around Stephen City, Virginia until it was retired in the early 1990's.
Some time after it was retired, Marshall purchased it from his cousin and eventually had it restored locally. As the restoration was progressing, pictures were taken and they are posted below.
Sadly on July 26, 2021, Marshall passed away but before he passed, he asked that his family donate the Massey to our club's agricultural museum which they did. Marshall's Massey can be seen any time that the museum is open. It will serve to keep Marshall's memory alive.
Enjoy the pictures.
