There is something about old equipment at work that just makes me happy.
This was when everyone was farming or had small farms. And everyone helped everyone .The good old days!!
Yes Sir you bet . Back when neighbour's were still neighbour's.
And everyone knew where their food came from.
It was wonderful seeing all the old machinery still able to do the job. History
Thank you for watching.
Combines have come a long way
They have. These were monsters in their day.
In my youth we had an IH 234 mounted picker on a 450. The 1206 is another of my favorites from 50 years ago.
I miss the smell and sounds of my grandpa farmall 706, super m, and h. The sounds of each running, the cool fall air, grandma's cooking, and the cool fall air...the best parts of my childhood
Great video! Love seeing all of the old farm equipment working! Takes me back to my childhood on the farm! Thanks for sharing! Have a great and awesome day!
That Jeep FC truck was a pleasant surprise
Two things I’ve never seen before- a cabover Jeep truck and a narrow front Ford 4000 tractor. Great video of history.
The Half Century Show turns up some very cool farm machines.
Brings back some great memories in Canada In the seventies
Great times for combines.
In southeast Ga. Rode a many miles on a puller
The case 960 is definitely my favorite!
oh, but that Oliver.....LOL
2:56 now this is a ture classic combine that i love
Seeing the IH615 and the New Idea pickers brought back some great memories growing up farming with my dad and grandfather. Thank you.
Awesome video BTP. I love seeing the old time harvest equipment
Thank God for farmers .This old machinery works perty good . I remember as a teenager going out in a field to weld the front of a combine that had broken off with my father he was the only one around at that time with a portable welder . Early 1970s
That Oliver combine shown in the beginning was very cool
It’s a great classic.
That Jeep FC was absolutely gorgeous.
That is one cool corn picking combo. You never know what will turn up at this show.
I’ve never seen a Jeep FC before it is really a cool looking truck
Gotta love the classics harvest is almost here great video BTP
If we could go back in time and figure out a way to keep all of these companies in business. I'm really impressed with the speed of these old machines. I don't think I've ever seen an LP Oliver or a self propelled corn picker before. Cool
You mean put a check in the destructive powe of labor unions, tax , and environmental law? Dissuade the American consumer from buying cheap imports?
Almost all of the companies on the video are still in existence, in on form or another. They got bought out or merged with another small company and then got bought out and renamed, etc., but you can still trace their offspring, many to Champion.
Or Agco...
That’s just awesome to see this machine still working away as they were intended to
😁👍👍
Haha!! My My My!! Amazing how far machinery has come!!
Great to see the old iron working👍😁 i like the corn pickers😉👍
Great video👍
Muito obrigado por mostra as máquinas
That little truck at 9:26 is the cutest ever 😊
Thanks for the video BTP!
Really liked the oliver 7800. looked like a beast
Are these older models able to handle today's high yield corn crops or did they have to plant varieties of corn suitable for these machines to harvest? I would imagine some of the smaller capacity combines would fill up fairly fast on a high yield corn field! :D I'm from Australia, love to see videos like this on CZcams, many thanks to the organizers who put this together!
What a fantastic video thank you.
What some fascinating machinery. Don't they look so small. The LPG powered Oliver tractor is particularly interesting.
I just LOVE this " reminds me of the good Ole days on our farm 🚜
Great show!
Taken tractors to the last 2
Old school iron, easy to work on and maintain. Back in the day when electronics weren't cool.
They still aren’t cool.
Great video. there were so many cool things to 'pick' from!
That’s a little “corny” 😁. Thank you for watching. It’s fun tracking down these classics to film.
Awesome video it’s been a long time coming from a 2 row to 8-12 row combine now
Love the 1206 and the super picker and the narrow front Ford
Both are cool combinations.
Good job as always 👍
Love your videos, keep it up
"Iron"y in action @ 8:54...Classic "iron" and a modern cellphone...LOL.
Now that’s ultra classic 👌
Enjoyed seeing the ol’ John Deere 45 EB combine in action… I just got a 95 John Deere I’m working on fixing up to do some small hobby farming…
That’s awesome. The 95 is one of my all time favorite combines. I grew up around a 95EB. I hope to get to film a 95 for a full feature some time.
The cat D2 totally cool! Never seen one, that I can remember. Great vid as always.
That is a very cool picking combo.
When you show older equipment, please show the model year. It’s interesting to see how much technology progresses each year.
I often do show production dates and general specs when I show tractors. Corn pockets and combines are a little tougher to track down all the details on. I have a fairly complete literature collection on every major brand from 1960 though 2020. Tractor manufactures often print a new sales brochure on a tractor each year so it’s easy to track a production run from start to finish. With corn pickers the farm equipment manufacture often printed one brochure and never updated it again as the corn picker was a lower selling unit and had no changes. With combines models like the John Deere 45 shown in this video were produced from 1945 to 1969. Although the 45 in this video is a later 1966-1969. If I can pin point production I like to share it. If I am unsure I don’t like to guess. Over all all the machines you see in this video minus the corn belt corn picker loading the Jeep F11 were built from the late 1950’s through the 1960’s. Thank you for watching.
Great vid. B T P . Thanks.
Always really great videos!!
We still use our 101 INTERNATIONAL combine to pickup alfalfa seed, red clover and oats.
Love that dirst jd 45 im a fan of tha cab on combine
Thank you. It’s a neat little piece. I enjoy taking something a little different to a show.
Awesome video 👍
I love getting to see this old iron still putting in work. Thank you for your work and keep these great videos coming
Look at those kernels flow. That's what I need is a corn picker. The cows love it. How in the world does it do that?
No wonder there used to be so many pheasants, lots of cover and food left over vs today nothing missed or gone to waste.
Was thinking the same thing.lots of stubble left for wild life.
Had a 45 Deere then a 403 International. Just right for a 300 acre farm. That was a sharp looking D17 with the big front tires. When I was 12 years old my neighbor had a 4000 Ford and a two row New Idea corn picker. Thought that was the biggest piece of machinery. Nothing like the behemoths of today.
Allot of dairy farms when I was growing up in the late 70’s and early 80’s had combines this and also ran New Idea pickers. It was a neat time in farming.
Nice beatiful 😱👍
Good Video!!
Love those D17's
😁👍👍
@@bigtractorpower i love the wd45
Go big muscle allis. Where’s all the gleaners
The Ford 4000 and that old truck was eye catchers, nice video
I remember you
@@everythingtractors9332 thanks, good to know somebody remember me, have a nice day Warren
Simpler & better times!!
😁👍👍
NICE
Was that a 450 Farmall working with the J.D MDL95 Combine! LUV IT!
OOH.. AWESOME seeing the Super H & the IH 3 QTR, TON...
Hey, James. Just watched this, and yes very cool. But that truck is actually a Jeep FC180 I believe. We had the 1/2 ton version short bed, an fc150. 1960
I love the Jeep truck
That would be a neat show to go to
It’s a great one. Well worth the trip.
Best setup at 6:11 even though it's old footage.
A Massey 510 would be cool to see too.
The show needs more Massey, Allis and FORD. I wanted to share some clips and angles not show in previous videos to help promote next years show. It’s only 361 days away 😁
Now I have to ask my Dad which model Case combine he had when I was really young. The 2nd machine I remember was a JD 3300. Looked like they were harvesting wide rows, and I know my Dad switched to narrow the 1st year Case built narrow heads.
These are 38 inch rows. Wide rows like these were common through the late 60’s and began to give way to 30 inch rows in the 70’s. I grew up around a Case 1060 combine that had a 3 row corn head. I hope to find one to film some day.
@@bigtractorpower He had 3 row narrow corn heads squeezed down to 28" rows for both the Case in the late '60s and 3300 JD early '70s, he eventually went up to 29" rows in '81 when he bought a IH 800 planter and couldn't squeeze it down to 28". He didn't go to 30" until he switched back to a Case combine with a 1063 cornhead in '91. I had just got off the phone with him when I saw this, but will ask him what the model was on the Case combine next time I talk to him.
my Father used a one row Woods Brothers corn picker for all his corn, took forever to pick a field, but at least I was driving a tractor,
9:10 is a very incongruous sight. I think that's the right word
BTP, you just hit a home run my friend! That 45EB is a spitting image of what we had. BTW, the video is mislabeled. It says it’s a 95.
Very nice on you having a 45EB. I grew up around a 95EB. I just had 95 on my mind and did not catch that I typed 95 instead of 45.
My Dad put a swamp cooler on top of the cab for air conditioning. Every time we got a little sideways, you’d get a face full of some funky smelling water. Lucky we didn’t get legionnaires disease!
Now how does one get in that 856 at 1:30? Crawl thru the window?
I remember helping friends pick corn with 2 row picker on a JD 730 deisel narrow front, we hauled wagons with a JD 3020 narrow front, and ran the elevator with a Farmall model H.
That Ford 4000...didn’t expect to see that.
Me either. It was a nice picker combo to get to film. I hope more people bring blue FORD tractors to the 2021 show.
1:30 Love the Farmall/International setup. Is there a John Deere equivalent that a 20 series tractor would run?
A Model 237 Picker with a Model 50 Sheller Attachment is probably the closest Deere setup you could get
Great vid but what do they do with the corn cobs after theh pick them?be fun to see what they do after the cobs get picked if you can video it
Very good question. The short answer is they have two corn shelters running and they truck the grain out and spread the cobs back on the field. The long action answer comes in this 17 minute video I made on it posted at czcams.com/video/OfyvR6gT8AQ/video.html
Finest Old Iron....
It’s a great show for the classics.
Liked, Just for my education. Why was the John Deere 70 rig labled a corn picker even though it was shelling? Thanks in advance.
Shellers were considered an attachment to the corn picker.
Great video,,,, some of these machines do an awful job, easy to see why they were replaced quickly..
Carl Kayser how can you tell they do an awful job without looking at the grain they harvested or the ground behind them?
We had one of those good machine but the head sucked you did alot of backing up in lodged corn!
I bet the payment on that old JD is a lot less than on a new Lexion. The price of grain is the same no matter how much the combine cost
Miss seeing those Gleaners here. Maybe next time
Cool!,
Finding vintage farm machines st work is one of my favorite topics to film. Thank you for watching.
bigtractorpower thanks for suppliing the vid
5:30 and after...some poor person has to shell that stuff(which was me for a few summers in high school in the late 80's in NW Iowa), hopefully right after it's hauled in from the field and not after it's been all but dynamited out of a wire crib after sitting for a couple seasons.
This combines are must appear ALMACO machine for experimental harvest! Here in Brazil have this one
You labeled the first two John Deere combines as "95" when they were showing "45". Did you just get excited for the "9" key, or were they rebuilt to 495 standards??
It’s a typo, it’s a 45EB that’s pretty much original. It’s my combine.
I like the guy driving the JD 730 LP tractor and steering with his leg, as he's taking pictures on his phone! =) Always love your videos my friend. - Dave
Thank you for watching.
@bigtractorpower You missed the Jeep FC??!!??!! Like a dream truck to me!
It’s one of the coolest corn haulers I have ever seen. 😁👍👍
That’s a 45 Deere not 95 love that show and this video
We have allis d17 i wish it was a d19 like the orange and we have a few older fords dads 80 and never sold one tractor even though we have 20 tractors and we still buy modern tractors at 10:20 that red pucker with bent down shute dose horable job knocks down more corn then any thing inless that is the idear only to pic the corn
I would hate to start out cutting several thousand acres with these old machines.
Sad I didn't see either the corn picker (attached to a Ford 901 Powermaster) or combine (a Massey) I grew up with.
Do you know what Module that Massey Harris SP Corn Picker sheller is!?
I do not. I have sales literature on it and it is simply called a Massey Harris Self Propelled Corn Picker. The sales literature makes no mention of a model number and this harvester had no model number on it.
@@bigtractorpower Must of been experimental! I don't see anything on the internet on them but the cob pickers. My only question is why the heck dint they put a grain tank on that beast! Could of killed the Uni picker sheller I bet!
I'm surprised i didn't see any New Idea Uni-Harvesters.
Are the older machines any more or less efficient than todays giants?
New machines will use less fuel per bushel harvested and i'm sure the old iron set right will thresh as clean a sample but thats where the comparison ends.
It starts on my birthday
Happy Birthday. 😁👍👍
Thanks, 😁😁 awesome videos
👍👍
Thank you Scrufffy.
Any Gleaner Es? If I had a trailer big enough I’d get it there
This show needs Gleaners big time. 👍👍
Is that like a combine for little people?
I shelled corn with a Gleaner C. 4 row
That's the ones I know. The 2 and 4 row and pullers
Did they plant in 36in rows
Mostly 38 and 40, to the best of my knowledge.
Good stuff did you get any video of an 8n Ford yet
No 8n tractors yet. It’s on my wish list as it’s an important part of tractor history. I did show a New Holland 8n Booker in a recent video.
We pulled many a wagon with our 8N! It has a drawbar that we would raise to shift the weight more on the rear when pulling was hard. Many, many times I had to steer using the brakes because I was running the front end up in the air! Good times!!! My mom (at 89) still is on the family farm and still owns the old 8N.
@@ericnelson7320 those 8n's are good tractors I have a 9N and its pretty good too
Old school farming
My favorite one is the John Deere 4400, which didn't appear in this video 😐
I have not filmed at 4400 yet. I hope to. I have filmed a 3300, 6600 and 7700 plus a 4420. Hopefully I can find a 4400 sometime.
YO I JUST WON THE LOTTERY!(iykyk)
Thank you for watching.
Send them up to mike mitchell to test !
