You had the right colors just needed to change the stickers. Put Massey stickers on that pretty red tractor and you will never have another problem with it.

The addition of Massey stickers reduces the horsepower drastically. I dont think it would be able to pull that baler then.

Massey's don't need all that extra wasted HP, they do more then them others with twice the HP. All that green and blue paint is like an anchor holdin you back from gettin the job done.

I liked the old Farmall's and internationals to. I had a Case 65 HP Turbo tractor some years back, great for pullin. Had all the power in the world, but the Hydraulics were weak as hell tryin to use the loader and 3 point. May have just been that one though, it was the only one I've spent any time on. Used a few Case articulated tractors last year for harvest but that was for pullin the gravity wagons around with.

I have a ford that is red. It is an old 601 Workmaster. Not real powerful, but a nice little old tractor.

Man we had a baler go up a couple years ago...a Hesston. The idiot driver we had simply unhooked the baler and drove the tractor off of it. Burned the baler to the ground, and about 5 acres of grass before we got it stomped out. Happened to me 2 cuttings later, but I was smart enough to have put a fire extinguisher on it and put it out. That hand was fired btw....
