IH cotton pickers in the field - 14A, 416, and 782
I'm finally able to get my old cotton pickers out of the barn and into the field! It was a hot August day with the beautiful sight and smell of snow white cotton. Doesn't get much better.
The stars of the show are an IH 14A (1956) powered by a Super C (1951), an IH 416 (1965), and a Case/IH 782 Series II (1987).
See my video prior to this one if you want more information on these machines.

I decided to try something different and planted soybeans this year. Using the same 1953 Super C that has appeared in many of my other videos and my John Deere Model 18 planter (some might say, "a Deere in the rear"). And through the magic of time lapse photography (or maybe procrastination in getting the video uploaded), the end of the video shows the beans up already.

    I remember sitting on the fender when I was a kid while my dad was doing this. I thought it was so cool on the first pass down. Those busters were the only plows that I didn’t plow with. I finally tried it once in high school, and my rows both wide and narrow, 😂. We actually had a B and a C. I started driving the B when I was three years old. My dad showed me how to drive it, and I fell in love with it. He turned me loose in a field to disc,…and he left me to go do other work on our farm. The C had all of the plows for it,…a disc, 2 row busters, planters with fertilizer box, front and rear cultivators, a shredder, and a four wheeled farm trailer. The B had a middle buster that we never used. We pulled the disc and shredder with it sometimes. We had a John Deere sickle mower that we towed behind it for cutting hay. As a kid,…that was all I ever wanted to do. I loved spending my Saturdays out there as well. I sure do miss it sometimes. Leonard

      Thanks for commenting! And what a coincidence that you found it on CZcams! (Sorry for the late response, we were dealing with hurricane Beryl and the aftermath; just got internet back). I love knowing the history as it's often as interesting as the equipment itself. Tom did say that it was a family owned machine, but I didn't know much else. I had a feeling that the 12001 serial number had some significance. It's a well worn combine and I put quite a bit of work into it, but it runs strong and did a great job in corn last year. If there's anything else you would like to share about, I'll document it. Thanks again!

      Thanks, Mark. It does steer easily. It just doesn't turn as sharp as my tricycle tractors.

      @@rustyrelicsranch O no you can turn those around in a snuff can. 😂 I have Daddy's 63 140 and I think it steers easier than the late model 140s.
