I' m from Australia ,my dad had three 95s from 63 to 74ish 1 round back and 2 square backs (i was born in 75) when I was 14 I drove a 95 and when I was 17 I did a season on a 105 . Man ! You would rip some wheat off with three of them!
I just noticed that the rear machine had factory freon air conditioning. You can see the condenser and cleaner screen to the left if the engine. Rare option in those days!
Back in the 70s we were one of the largest farmers in the state of Indiana farming over 2000 acres. We had several 105s I can't imagine setting in one of those dirty hot ass things today. I think we're all spoiled..lol
@@ericteipen I currently do custom fieldwork for probably the largest small grain farm NOW in Indiana by Williamsport Indiana,,perhaps you may know who I'm talking about?
That is awesome! Does not appear they are just out for show! Running those newer heads looks like they are still working those machines. Where is this at?
Very cool! I'm just curious if those old machines are still economically viable from a fuel and maintenance prospective or are you guys just running them for fun?
Oh you cant beat the old stuff. I dont know how anyone can justify the new stuff. They like to brag about their figures on how many acres per fuel usage but ignore the fact that price tag is insane. Like to see them figure in cost per acre with including the machine cost. We buy 20 year old equipment and fix it up if it needs it. The ONLY reason i can ever come up with a justifiable reason is the tax write-off. But if I need a tax write-off I just buy more fertilizer. When my dad was alive he had a few new things and we never had enough money left over for enough fertilizer. I got rid of those new things and now we always have plenty of money left to put on the fertilizer we need. Its a win win because then you have twice the yields. But most people wana look good in the field and be comfortable and never have to fix anything.
I love watching old combines run!!
We had a 105 square back... great machine!
This is a great vid. And the best part, NO LOUD BACKGROUND RACKET THEY CALL MUSIC IS PLAYING.

I have a 55, and boy almighty do they burn gas like a pig, I
Sure them 95s were the same since 105s are diesel mostly
The good old days when farming was hard work and fun and no computer or electronics to wreck your day

Actually they all have it, middle one is on the roof. Not factory though i don't believe.
@@sultangris8063 you're correct! The lead machine's AC condenser unit is missing the screen that sticks up like the radiator screen.
I just fired my 105 up today after sitting for 2 years! Rough shape but the engine always runs
We have 18 of them, some just for parts. This is in North Dakota.
all with modern grain tables how cool !
Wow what great classics to see.

We have air conditioners in 5 or 6 of them

Your footage is really very good
Four more payments and they’re paid for.
I'd love to own a diesel 105 that's still in good shape. None to be found around here anymore
This is an AWESOME VIDIO!
Walt Duncan would be proud
I wonder how they maintain these machines. Parts have to be hard to come by.
Can get parts I had one in Australia 12 years ago

LOVE LOVE
SEE PROGRAM
SINGSONG ENJOY
I THINK YOU
Il est où le bruit des moissonneuses ?
good video👍
how many acres an hour do you have Rich
If they are 20 foot wide headers and maintain a 4 mph pace, the three machines together will cover 29 acres per hour.
