- Restoring a 1952 Ferguson TO-30 Tractor. This tractor is family owned since new from when my grandfather had a Ferguson dealership in McMinnville Oregon. Rebuild took 2 years and thousands of dollars, not a project for the faint of heart. Engine is a Continental Z-129. The block had cracked and had already been welded when I got it. I had the pistons and sleeves replaced and the crankshaft ground. All new electical and lots of time cleaning and painting. She is a beauty!

60 years ago, my dad bought a used Ferguson "30 with a 35 kit" which he used for the next 20 some years. I loved that tractor which was plenty big enough for our 126 acres. We had a 2 bottom turning plow, a 3 pt digger/cultivator, drag-behind disc, and a John Deere No 7 sickle mower. The mower was well matched to the power of the 35 kit, and I could mow in 3rd gear with the throttle wide open. Of course, when it dropped a front wheel in a group hog hole, I nearly lost my teeth on the steering wheel! Great memories, so thanks for restoring the old girl.
My 71 year old dad split 2 TO35 and made one tractor. He passed shortly after. I make sure she stays running. Something I can never sell.
She's a Beauty,Nice Save, Love it...
I have a TO-35 that needs a rebuild. Your video gave me a sneak peek of what I shall expect. Thank you!! You did a great job
Harry Ferguson would be so pleased

Love that video! It gave me goosebumps when the gas was flowing back in sediment bowl....lol.

Nice job man! You really need a sandblaster for Xmas!
Am starting to restore a Ferguson TO-20 and your video was a great help.
Thanks John
SUPERB! Well done.
I have one of these. I've owned it for 20 years. The only thing I have replaced were the tires, wires, spark plugs and a water pump. I use it several times a week.
Great Job !! I'm getting one tomorrow......
I just bought a 1952 T030. I plan to do a light restoration and use it on my 30 acre farm. Nice job.

Oh what a great job !. Thank you for restoring part of our history. I just retrieved one out of the bushes. It is a TO 99191 Is it a 20 or 30 and What year would is it. Thank you in ADVANCE.
I have a TO-30, still working been with us since 1955. It needs more work than I can do. Any suggestions for tractor restoration services in the state of Maine welcomed
so kooooool i am 17 and i wish i had half of your mechanical capability.
My ferguson TO 30 will start but not keep running. Sometimes run a few seconds or several minutes. Filter screen in side gas tank is clean. Fuel flowing good thru line. Fresh Gas. Any ideas ?
Make and model of the harrow you're pulling?!!
hydrolic's in rear of to30 keep going up and down by themselves when I put cultivator on to cultivate? I or anyone else has been able to figure it out. any opinions?
looks like you kept it 6 volt?
@mbbennette how about a video update on your tractor? Still have it?
What make and size are those rear tyres

It's nice to see a restoration job like that but I can't stand music from The Rockford files

It seems you have fallen in the trap to paint it Massey- Ferguson grey, while the orginal colour was Navy-grey.
Where can you get the paint? I’ve got a TO30 looking for a facelift
So how long did it take for your wife to kick your ass for tilling up the back yard?
So do I bring my by this week or next week for the rebuild.
