Bill, if you got grandkids, you must be a favourite! So nice you can look at this and still have joy out of it. Nice clean perspective. My mom saved Green Machine magazine I gave my dad 20 years ago. At the family event this year she handed them all out to the nephews. Two of the smallest ones about 2 years old couldn't get enough looking at the old JD tractors. Two of my nephews had their tractors out - my one nephew who is 19 has an 830 and my other nephew about 24 has an 820. We had a nice ride on the wagon. Thanks Bill! I have to go back to work thinking of ways to sell more green machines!
This might be the best episode ever! Nice to finally see some fully ripened tractors on your channel, Bill! Just kidding keep up the good work, thanks for sharing!
I was a freshman in highschool in 66 and in the FFA . We had a 40 acre plot at school for the FFA and the members could bring their own tractors to work the ground . One of my best friends dad just got a new 1206 with a 6 bottom hydraulic reset plow!! He came to school that morning throttle wide open and the whole school was looking out the windows and I was so jealous 😂😱. That was the biggest thing around back in our country!! Good memories Bill! God bless 🙏
Thanks for the video! something to watch on a snowy day! I hear you about those plow pulling claims. On our farm here in central Illinois, you would have to drop a bottom or 2 off those claims. Have some gumbo ground that really sucks those plows in!
Hard to believe that's nearly 60 yrs ago. I grew up on Case and IH tractors. Have run a considerable amount of Deere tractors and equipment. They all have their good and bad points. Interesting to run other brands to widen your perspective. Dealer location and service drove a lot of the brand popularity in the area where I was originally from. Keep up the interesting variety!!!
I was 3 or 4 yrs old when I first noticed my Grandpa's hand start B, "That was the biggest tractor I ever saw". Grandpa had sold his BF Avery to my dad in 1950 or 51, late August of 51, the JD "B" went down in the middle of oats harvest. Mom was in the hospital having me and Dad had to tow the Avery back to the farm to help with combining oats. Grandpa had an Allis Chalmers "40" combine, no hopper, it was a bagger type. 1970, I bought a 55 JD 60, Dad had bought a 62 JD 2010 in 1966. He bought a JD 3-14" 3 pt plow and could never pull the 3 bottom until we removed the 3rd bottom. I had a JD 3 btm trailer plow and had no problem pulling it, in the same field. My 60 could outperform the 2010 all day.
Still wearing the home made tooth....😆 Most farm around here are multi colored....the best deal is what was used. It's the man behind that equipment that makes a farm work....most good ones could make anything do. We had two Deers, a Massey, a Ford and a Allis. They all earned there keep. 🤠
Thanks for sharing the video Bill. I know it hurts to look at some good equipment 😂. I'm a red and green man. I guess I will get out here and clean the driveway and some stuff. Be safe out there working. That 3150 will make short work of the snow. Take care and again thanks for the videos.
I grew up on red tractors , only run 1 green tractor on the neighbors farm and that was a 2010 or a 1020 gas JD numbers too many to keep track of. He had JD B but it broke somthing in the crank so he got a 656 gas from huber up in Pa . I liked his JD but was used to IH so i used the 656 when i could. My son is a devout JD man , don't know wher i messed up ! But he did bring Lippy Bros big IH articulated tractor to his FFA bring your tractor to school day when he was a senior ,the girls loved it , he ain't dumb ! Enjoy this next round of snow Bill , Still hating winter up here in Owings Mills . Bill
I think the 1206 was the first turbocharged tractor tested at Nebraska over 100hp. I belive the first turbocharged tractor tested at Nebraska was a D 19 Allis Chalmers. I am green blooded but I do have some Ih brochures too? Nice.
I would pick sales papers back in the day s away s like ed John Deere but it good to look at all i can't think of 656 or 3020 pulling more 3 bottom plow here
What do you mean..fellow got a nice tan..that's the way we had to do it down south..all day..6 days a week. 12 hours a day..and yes lpg smell bad but had a family to take care of..in 66 I was 18 a wife and on my way to veitnam..a country boy from Arkansas
I assure you, I have nothing but great respect for these hard working men. I grew up the same way, and still farm with old equipment like that, just a different color.
😊😊 there was a time ⏲️ 😊 many years ago when people used LP GAS /GAS / DIESEL tractors 🚜 😊 of years ago LP GAS tractors 🚜 😊 the sparkplugs last alot longer and the gas was the same way 😊😊/ GAS was good until 1972 when the changed it now 2 day it's alot worse than what it was 😮😮 U don't use corn 2 make GAS it turns 2 gum went sets / and years ago the hay was cut W a sickle bar mower long be 4 they made hay binds or disc binds 😊😊 1 6 2O25

I spent quite a few hours as a kid flipping through tractor and combine brochures. Didn’t matter the color. Really enjoyed the video, Thanks Bill.
Same here..

Always cool looking at ole equipment Bill, God Bless

Ih 700 plows and 710 are common around here. We always look at 706 like a 3020 and 806 like a 4020. Great looking old catalog
great video Bill!!
Glad you enjoyed it!
You tell'm Slim! Nothing last's "forever".
Enjoyed the video buddy
Thanks for the visit!

Nice video Bill
Great video Bill. Thanks!
You are very welcome!
I had quite a few IH Buyers Guides when I collected IH memorabilia..

Love those old IH Buyers Guides!!

Was wondering if you got all the snow. Like your videos.
Ya I got a 33 hay conditioner. Still use it. Just because there was not a John Deere at that auction.
I bleed JD green but if I had 1206 offered to me I’d take it! IH muscle tractor
We use a 656 with a loader just about everyday feeding round bales. Runs like a sewing machine.
Hey Jeremy! Glad to hear it's giving you good service!
The 424 superceeded the B414, I have a '63 model.
RED is right all the time.
I would pick sales papers back in the day s away s like ed John Deere but it good to look at all i can't think of 656 or 3020 pulling more 3 bottom plow here

That Dealership is not in business anymore. I don’t know where it would have been in Romney.I’m going to have to look into that.
Hmm I wonder if the page ripped out was about the Devil tractor? 🤣🤣
Not the 666!
Great video.That Dealership is close to my neck of the woods where I’m from in W .V.
Hey Carl! IS close? It's not still in business, surely.
I enjoyed seeing the older equipment.
