    I had a '72 Chevy pickup I bought for $450.00 in about that condition, had a dent in the right side fender. It was my favorite truck of them all. Sadly, $10,000.00 don't seem like so much these days. 5020 row crop JD is something you dont see every day. The first piece of farm equipment I bought on my own was a JD 494 planter just like that one. Man that was a long time ago. Thanks for taking us to the sale.

    I read some comments. I'm not sure why some are so grumpy about the old tractors. I like them. There is no way I could justify buying a new one. We have a successful farm because we spend money wisely on older equipment and if you maintain them they don't depreciate like new ones. From what I have watched you are the same.

      Got to tell you they're John wingfield Hill we have a fleet at 12 here at home or some sort of derivatives like Case IH for McCormick. Use them all they all have specific jobs they served us well leaving 1947 m hear that is probably the most treasured one of the bunch of was my grandfather's. He bought it brand new 1947 edition custom work all over the community here besides our own and it's still being used. I tell everybody when they go to bury me there might as well bury me sitting on the seat because none of the rest of the family values it like I did. Nothing against them but it's mainly because I was the one here and grew up on it. I always say it's as much a family heirloom was my grandmother's Good China .

    Wow used equipment sales are soft, things went cheap! $15,750 for a good 5020 John Deere, cab, 3pt. hitch, and new clutch..... Engine sounded good. That tractor went dirt cheap! A lot of guys are still farming with 5020 John Deere's, no computerize crap, easy to work on, just a straight good old horse. There's a UA-cam farming channel that has 6 or 7 5020's and another 10-12 for parts. I think they are in South Dakota, farming a bunch of acres. If I was farming today I would be stock piling 5020 John Deere tractors. 15,000 dollars wouldn't buy a set tires on some of these late model front assist tractors.

      I was at a machinery auction last month here in Ireland and the truth is that any tractor older than 2000 was sold by the tonne with a few exceptions which were in mint condition after someone had spent a fortune on them for a complete rebuild, oldest tractor was a complete refurbished Massey 250 unsold at €9500 , apparently it cost more than that to get it back to the way she was when new, in fairness the tyres alone cost € 1000 at least.

      Not to disagree, but you do need to calculate the exchange rate. Currently $1000 USD equals 786.62 GPS.

    Are you guys all nuts? Have you ever spent a week sitting on a cabless tractor eating dust and breathing fumes 14 hours a day for a week? To do what I can do now in 5 or 6 hours in an air conditioned cab with tinted windows and a decibel level of less than 70! I am half deaf because of these horrible old tractors, but I am not thankful losing my marbles, I worked to many of those horrible uncomfortable machines over the years to have any love for them! As for them being reliable, no they were not! They broke down from the day they were bought new and it was usually only out of sheer stubbornness that anyone kept them going, I am an old man and I have been driving tractors for 70 years plus, hell I even worked horses as a boy and only for progress I sure as hell wouldn’t still be driving them still, in reality I just sit on my nice comfortable armchair and monitor the screens now, I don’t even steer or change gear, my biggest problem is climbing up into the cab!

      These computerized tractors that you brag about are also what everyone is fighting for the right to repair? Pretty soon, you will have to purchase a subscription to have a certain amount of horsepower. You aren't the owner, but just another person borrowing technology. My brother in law works for John Deere, and he is constantly making service calls on new machines. Heck, they have a lot full of new combines that they can't run because they need a computer chip from China.
      These old tractors are still running 50 years later, so that speaks for itself that they are built well. Hearing protection would've saved your hearing.

      @@trinitydairy I am not bragging about the modern tractors , I just don’t understand how anyone can think that the old ones were somehow better. For the most part they were just as unreliable and for their time expensive as they are now, truthfully I drive a fendt and it is probably the most reliable machine I’ve ever owned, I don’t drive it all the time just for silly season ( planting) but it is a great machine and we have 6500 hours up on it in less than 3 years without an unscheduled stop. We run other makes as well and for the most part they are just as reliable, I remember back in the day when we had to have a couple of spare tractor’s just to ensure we had enough running to get the work done. I don’t understand where you are coming from with the right to fix thing as far as I know you can take any tractor apart if you want to but you are not going to have a warranty thereafter and most dealers will not be willing to sort out the mess you have made . I could strip a 4020 in my sleep 50 years ago because I did it so often, engine, transmission, backend. Come up a decade and it was the same story . I am not as an amateur going to get into a vario transmission because I don’t know what I am doing and I don’t have a clean room to do it in either , but most importantly since I bought the first vario fendt that I owned twenty years ago I have had no reason to get into it because it never caused any issues. The video was interesting to me but the comments that it generated were just plain daft, there is no other way to describe them, nostalgia is all well and good but not everything was better back in the day and anyone who worked those tractors back in the sixties seventies and eighties will never want to go back to that era, it was just hardship.

      I have a 830 case with the case o matic transmission from the early 60s and that transmission has never been touched, it has done every job on the farm from heavy tillage to raking hay. Tractors from the 60s, 70s, and 80s, have done nothing but increase in value, because they are much simpler to work on yourself, and you don't have all the electronics and emissions stuff to deal with. I don't have any new tractors but I know plenty of people who do, and they break down just like the old ones, but the old ones they can fix themselves, a lot of times with the new ones, they can't. I don't have a problem with anyone buying a new tractor, but to say the old ones were unreliable is just plain wrong! I've spent many hours on open station tractor, and cabs without heat or ac, and believe it or not, I've ate plenty of dust behind a team of horses. If it's loud, I wear hearing protection, if it cold, I wear a jacket, and if it's hot out, I drink some water and get on with my work. Our oldest tractor is 77 years old, and still gets used every day, I would love to see where the tractors built today are, in 77 years!

      @Andy-ix2ox so basically, you were triggered because people who watch this channel (a channel which features old tractors and horse-drawn machinery) commented that they like old tractors best. This then caused you to go on a rant calling anyone who shares that opinion nuts. You are really in the wrong place if those opinions are in your opinion, daft. People on the internet will have different viewpoints from you, but there is no need to then be insulting. I know an old farmer, almost 100 years old. The highlight of his summer is climbing onto a John Deere 60 to rake hay for his son. It has nothing to do with nostalgia and everything to do with working with a machine he understands and feels comfortable running. I would never call him nuts or daft that he doesn't want to drive a new tractor.
      If you're happy with your newer tractor, that's great, but if someone prefers a 1976 international, that's great, too.
