$50 for a MM
I am clean up my land in Texas and I want to get rid of my old MM. It was and still is a good tractor. I don't have the heart to send it to the scrap yard. It is 30 miles north of Austin Texas in the Liberty Hill area.
The radator has a large leak at the bottom of it and I parked it 4 years ago it was to big of a tractor for my needs, I hope it would be a great restore project for somebody who has the time! It ran great!!!!
I am not sure what model it is but it probably over 85 hp (big gas engine).
$50 is all I am asking

Welcome to Tractor Forum Wingnut!   Great to have you aboard! We can sure use some Mahindra owners to provide some first hand observations and feedback. I agree, I think your MM has seen better days but will make somebody a great restore project.

Sorry Andy I have no way of delivering it
I only have a Dodge Dakota V6.
I don't think it would make the trip to LA and my A/C is out (I could sweat off 30 lbs on a trip like that this time of year).
Y'all need to come here

More on the MM
The tires still hold air, two massive wheel weights on the back!
Hydraulics were working fine, the loader is 6' wide.
It is a gas engine so the fuel tank most likely needs to be clean out.
The loader was bent when I try to move a small rock that I discovered to be a 6' X 4.5' rock that what 8 inch thick (3800+ lbs)and is now being used as a bench.
Wasp nest comes with it for free!!!!!

welcome wingnut. it looks like what you have there is a uti (industrial u) there should be a tag in behind the hydraulic valves seen in the picture. its probably a good thing your in texas or i'd have to try to sneak another tractor into the yard. that would be good one to get your hands on andy

Oh wow! Thanks --- Texas wasps for free! 
I am interested. I just need to do a little more research into this model and such. Please hold for me if you can pending a couple days of getting my stuff in order. Bear, can you PM me or post anything you know about this tractor, availability of parts, restoration costs etc? Thanks so much!
Andy

So we can say "Its pert near sold"

more pics would be great and on the plate it should say model uti then the serial # engine trans and rearend pARTS WOULD BE THE SAME AS U AND NO PROBLEM TO FIND the hydraulics would likely require the help of a hydralics shopthe front and rear axle would be different but by the picture it appears to be good. the tin looks a little rough but that would fit off of a u as well. they were built from 40-56

As for the tin
THX Bear as for the Tin (engine cawl) it does fit fine; it is propped up by an filter/breather. I was going to place it back in place but those Texas wasp change my mind!
Does this mean when I sell it; I have to give up my avantar?

Sorry to tell you Wingnut, but all your pic links are no good. I just get a little box telling me an image hosted by Tripod, but no image.

I'm running Window XP on dail up and this works for me.
If y'all want to see Wingnuts pictures (they are great pictures by the way) right click the links one at a time and do the "save target as" deal. They will go to your hard drive, so pay attention where you put them.
