Used to have one of these when I was younger... What a dinosaur but plenty of power with the 903. We got it pretty tired and wore, replaced the engine with a turbo version
Massey Ferguson was still it’s own Company when this Tractor was produced. The last year for Massey was 1982. Several of the big Machine Companies went under in the 80s including IHC.
AGCO. ( Allis Gleaner Company ) did in fact keep the color Red ). The Red is Massey tint not to be confused with International Harvester’s Oxblood Red. There is a definite difference when compared side by side. AGCO did away with the Original Massey Flint Metallic in favor of an even darker Grey. Flint Metallic was a beautiful contrasting color. Over the years from the Their start, Massey had three different Grays. Prior to the Merger with Massey Harris, Ferguson Tractors and Implements were a very light Gray. Then, after a brief color trial and error period, the Company ( MHF ) settled on Flint Metallic. After the acquisition by ACCo, the yet darker Gray. Fergieman
Some others came with V8 Detroits or V12 Detroits I think. V8 CAT, 6 cylinder KTA CUMMINS, yeah! Badass man powerhouses noise and rolling coal pulling the tillers!
a few years later in the 5000 series they put in the 855 six cylinder, any one know where to get the change over frame extentions as our 903 is wore out
@@philippetays4263 Deere also had a Problem Tractor in the 8850 - V8. Considering that Deere is a Company still in Business, unlike Massey, parts are more easily accessible. Have You checked the Salvage Yards? As far as the 8850 Deere is concerned, the best fix is aftermarket, not Deere. Perhaps You should consider making a change to a Trans or Engine Trans Combination to something more modern and easily accessible parts. Fergieman
Sounds like the Scania V8 we’re running in our fleet. I will never grow tired of that sound. Need a turbo though!
Its a Cummins VT903 Defens Engine from a Leopard M41 tank
@@IownaMFDanmark I don’t think the M41 & the Leopard were the same, the M41 was referred to as the “Walking Bulldog”

That big ol v8 sounds real good like "eargasm" good
My friend in Saskachewant Canada have the 4800..4840..4880 and my favorite the 4900 straight pipes 375 horsepower very loud....
Any good for pulling trees out by the roots ? Not the 20 metre high type of course! Leave those for Sasquatch to hurl about 😂
Music to a tractor fanatic’s ears!
Oh my, what a glorious sound.
Nothing beats the old V8 cat especially with straight pipes! Best sounding Massey I've ever heard 👍
It’s not a Cat tho, it’s a Cummins which was an Engine of the 70’s
The 1805"s had a 3208 cat in them.
A great sight and sound!!!
Nice video , i love this song
Agco should have painted their 4wd with massey colors and kept the line going.
