    Default Old Massey Ferguson 283 not running

    I have a MF 283 that hasn't been running in approx 3 years. When she was parked she "ran" but needed a lot of "persuasion" to get started, hydrolics were slow, and she was just ornery. I'm not inclined to put any money towards getting her running and would prefer to sell, auction, just get rid of it at this point. Currently located in Elloree and looking for options as far as getting her gone?? She does have a large bushog loader attached, so there may be some value in parting her out.

    You should run an ad in the market bulletin. Large target audience and better people than you will find on craigslist. If you don’t feel like fixing it, I doubt you want to mess with the hassle of parting it out. I think the ad is free, also. Google SC market bulletin.

    This model was made from 1985 to 1997.To narrow down the year, you need the serial # .
