| There have been Masseys with fore-end loaders
in the Corgi range since the late 50s. Beginning
with the 65, followed by the 165 and then finally here with the industrial
tractor the 50B. I don't know whether mine has something missing but the bucket does not stay
in place when the loader is raised without one holding back a lever. Also the
'hydraulic rams' have lost their friction and the loader will no longer stay up. Compare this to my 1960 Massey Ferguson 65 tractor shovel which still works
perfectly.
The Massey 50B was
released in 1974 and remained in the range until 1977. It is always
yellow with a black roof and red loader. There are no listed variation.
