[AT] Massy Harris

[Dennis Johnson]

Gene,
 
Thanks for the info. It does look a lot like the link that you sent. Not sure if it is the model 20, or the 81, but this gives me a place to look further.
 
Thanks again.
 
Thanks,
Dennis

    Sounds like a Massey Harris, Maybe 20? The hitch cylinder was mounted on 
these tractors as you describe. Did it look like this

....

The tractor is supposedly a late 40's or early 50's unit. It has a 4 
cylinder Continental engine, and a driveline going back to the rear drive 
train. Transmission is a 4 speed. I recall that the shifter was in the rear 
drive train portion, but I also recall what looked like a transmission alsoo 
on the back of the engine. (wished I would have had camera and taken 
pictures.)

...Can any of you give me advice about what tractors in that era used 
Continental engines, and what this might be??
