That is the tractor my dad had when I was young and he trusted me enough to go work the fields that were in the next village. Man I almost shat myself driving on the Dutch dykes with the cultivator swinging and traffic heading towards me. Never had a loader for it though. But always liked the can cooler/holder although cans if fizzy drinks would be shaken thoroughly.

Proper tractor!

Using our new wagtail on the 135 today. 135 is just back from getting a new clutch, brakes, cat1/2 arms and a few oil leaks fixed. Was a dream to use

at 3:32 you can see the view of the kit above the windscreen, radio on the right and the little door on the left is where you put your can and it has the fan ducting connected so has air circulating around it. Knowing how much money we had spare in that time I think I can say no extra money was paid for it.
Ours was a 4wd version but most of it is similar to the video.

small but mighty!

I assumed the can cooler was a standard feature on all 3000 series Massey's. It's been in all the ones I've driven.
It was a bit of a novelty on my uncles f reg 3080 to begin with. But without air con, it didn't make much difference on very hot days.

I assumed so as well. Made absolutely no difference to the temperature of the can, only that it was thoroughly shaken when you wanted to drink it.

You can fit a 440ml can of beer in the wee cooler but not a 500ml can

Ah, so it's more of a 'first aid' storage place then...

Yep, smaller can for medicinal purposes only, not the party pack

 

[choochter]

I'd no idea it was a can cooler!

So my cans of Bundy and coke will fit.
Bugger I don't have a Massey. Have to get them out the fridge instead

As standard in a 90's tractor?

As Massey were ahead of the game they had them from D/E reg mid to late 80’s

 

[JLTate]

Something different arrived other day.

From early 80’s if you had a 4000 series articulated.

Does anyone else drill and tap new ball joints for grease nipples, or is it just me ?
