The Massey Ferguson 1145 was introduced in 1972 as a part of the updated 1100 series, filling a crucial niche in the mid-range tractor market. Production continued until 1978. This model featured a Perkins A4.248 diesel engine, producing approximately 78 horsepower with a displacement of 248 cubic inches. It was exclusively offered with a diesel engine. The standard transmission was a gear-type transmission offering 8 forward and 2 reverse speeds. The PTO delivered around 70 horsepower, available at 540 RPM.
