He was really forward thinking when he saved it back in the 50's, almost no one thought twice about keeping any of that old iron.
Indeed! Especially the war surplus equipment.
That thing is a piece of history and a work of art
Amazing to see a tractor that old still running in mostly original condition. Farming has changed a lot over 100 years.
Changed for the worse if you ask me. Nobody asked though so I'll see myself out.
Conspiracy Scholor change happens, not all of us agree with all of the changes. I moved off the family farm almost 30 years ago, we were small and behind the times then.
What a nice old guy with his fantastic looking tractor. Great story.
Cool tractor, cool guy, and a GREAT attitude about things made in the USA !!!! If more people would buy products made here, we would be a lot better off as a Country !
Awesome machine. So glad you saved it.
I agree. I like that it is all original.
Why would anyone give this a thumbs down ?
They like the china crap!!!
Mahindra lovers....
IT IS PROBABLY 30 TO 40 YEAR OLD GUYS UN MARRIED, UNEDUCATED, UNSKILLED, UNEMPLOYED, AND LIVING IN THEIR MOTHERS BASEMENT!!
"HEY MOM, BRING ME A SANDWICH, AND MORE PRINTER PAPER!!"
LOL ( AND PROBABLY CITY SLICKERS TOO)!!
@@rossbryan6102 😀😀😀😀😀
You have to wonder how miserable some people's lives must be to give this video a thumbs down.
Makes me wonder what they like, if anything.
Some people just do that we'll never know why
My first guess is they live in a big city
you d
Absolutely right !
What a piece of usa history,thankfully there are people that collected and appreciated this part of farming history!🇱🇷
Wow, I love seeing these tractors... Thank You all.
Thank you Elmer and CTF for sharing this with us. Very neat.
Wow not many from that era that still have the original markings visible. Crazy nice piece of American history.
Built in The USA... Only the best!
LOL
Built in the usa and Canada is something I always look for when I buy tooling. But I have also found Sweden, Germany, Poland and allot of other places make really good tools aswell!
@@Donkusdelux Oh yes, I have some German and Sweedish tools Great stuff!!!
Back before I moved to the USA I was in Ireland and we had Farmalls and Oliver tractors. Our neighbor cross the road had a Belarus Tractor made in Belarussia, great machines all of them!
Not so much anymore. Every country builds better shit then the USA does. 70% of our shit is made in other countries.
The keyboard you used is made in China. The screen, china too. The mobo in your computer was probably built by a Tai lady in a bikini
Amazing What a nice old tractor! A real piece of history. Thanks for saving her
Thanks, Elmer, that is a piece of American history. My Dad had a 1928 F12, but unfortunately it was destroyed in a barn fire in the 80's.
Stupid fire
I've never seen a tractor that looked quite like that. Thank God this thing survived!
Thank you Folks for this amazing video, fantastic tractor too!
Great to see this man enjoying the ride on what must be one of the oldest tractors in existence, fabulous!
Outstanding old iron !🇺🇸🚜🇺🇸
ein schöner Traktor mit ruhigem, gleichmäßigem Lauf! Für diese Zeit Wunderbar.
It was good to see this old farmer laugh when talking about his wife and her garage!!
I just loved this video, the tractor, the gentleman,, thank you a lovely peaceful good feel factor for life, thank you 👍✅❤️
Thank you Elmer for sharing
Another original classic!!! I love it!
A marvellous piece of equipment and an important part of the evolution of tractors. The tractors of today would have been seen as impossible as landing a man on the moon.
We never went to the Moon. I challenge you to look up Eric Dubay videos on Flat Earth.
My grandfather owns one of these!! It is still in great condition sitting under one of his sheds.
That's a nice looking tractor.
Wow, what a neat looking tractor. Love it !!
Historical Tractor.✌👌
Love at Elmer
My dad's grandfather had one of these tractors it is in the museum in Grandview Manitoba Canada
Wow that’s so cool congrats bud nice tractor
Thank You
I’ve always wanted one of these with all the implements
Wow incredible stuff!
awesome
Impressive!!!!
Really neat
Sweet!
Nice tractor, but the real gem here is Elmer himself.
110%👍👍👍
So many different tractors over the years.
Nice!
I like antique tractor that look like a locomotive with enclosed cab and all metal wheel. They are still horseless machinery that run on its own power without the horse or horses.
I just put a handle on a pitchfork that must be at least from that time. It looks like cast iron, four tines and is somewhat small. I use it to turn over a small compost station (pitchforks are not actually good for leaves since it pokes thru and the leaves stick, but it is better than a shovel and is good enough for what I'm doing).
I want to see the international cub cadet in the background
Very cool.👍👍
i like it sweet ride
a champion
Whata sweet old man :)
What happened to International? A neighbor had an International pickup truck and it was a solid reliable vehicle.
She's kinda the boss you know, that's funny
Hmmm, this is local-I would like to go see that old tractor.
There’s one of those around my area
VeryCool.
I want one
It looks exactly like today's compact tractors that do all small jobs in the farms plus it has the belt even more to do
All the dislikes are from those John Deere fellows who are still jealous that it took Deere over forty more years to figure out they needed more than two cylinders!😜
1917 wawww se jeont tractoure
Today's hoarders are tomorrow's collectors.
🌸 *Hello from french farmers witch have old tractors too* 🌸

I see IH...I like.
Only IHs I own though are 4 Scouts (1x '62 runs//drives...1x 69-70 800A rotten but runs...1x late-80 early-800 is a good rolling body...1 is rolling 60%+ 800 shell) + a Loadstar 1600.
I'm the same way! But my IH's are an old fridge, a mower, and some rusty trucks
Both driver and tractor moving slow ...but still moving .... lol
Made in u.s.a. and I doubt the new ones will be around a hundred yrs from now
Wow I thought Tim Conway was dead
I see buy a newer tractor for the fields and keep the old one in the barn on a belt..
Where they used international ?
They dont make them like they use to.
Thank God
Maybe 47 people are pissed they don't own one.
So Mr. Gockley builds a garage for his tractors, and then his wife says “nope, I’m parking my car in there,” and that’s perfectly fine in this society…? Pretty messed up, in my opinion.
Perfectly fine between Elmer and his wife. No one else's business or concern.
@@om617yota8 : No, it's perfectly idiotic. His wife clearly has no respect for an irreplaceable piece of American history. So typical of women nowadays. Anything that has survived 100+ years needs to be preserved at best as it possibly can be. Her precious "car" that will be basically worthless scrap in 10 - 15 years belongs OUTSIDE, unless there is extra available space inside. God bless Elmer, but he's a chump for letting her call the shots on this one.
@@turbodiesel4709 Feel free to tell them that. I'm sure they'll give your opinion on how they store their own vehicles all the consideration it deserves.
@@turbodiesel4709 well, they're married and the money he spent to build the garage belonged to both of them, so she gets to place her car in his tractor garage. That's perfectly reasonable
I would have liked to hear it run ...instead of talking all over video
Truman Renz I could hear it, is your miracle ear working ok?
Bhaskar
Lo
Bhagwat Nagtilak
These young pups now days are chopping all name brand tractors just to gain a dollar. So sad if I could I would slap them young pups silly and teach them to save these old machines.
Um...yes and no...tractors are probably one of the few things we do build here
