Well I have my new garden tool and I will be trying it out this weekend, can’t wait to see how she does!
She came with a front bucket, a 6 foot brush hog, a 20 inch rear scoop, and a spring rake.
Just have to figure out what her name is though, she is a 1975 65hp Massey Ferguson, any suggestions?

Fergie!
She’s a beauty and oh the work she is going to help you do. I bet she can’t wait to get started.

Mildred!
Wow….that’s a fine tool!
I wished we had another tractor, after having one you miss it when its gone.
I had to put a rear guard on our tractor behind the seat after a rock went ripping past my head. That woke this boy up very quickly!
I bet you get years of use outta her.

Nice tractor! With a partner like that, you will speedily be transforming your “two acres in the country” into your county home and railroad garden park. How do you feel about the moniker Red?

Looks like a Betsy or a Martha but size says Bertha as short for Big Bertha.

Scoopy (and paint a picture of Snoopy on the sides if the upper arm hinging cover thingies, just there above the bucket).
