I'm sure that isn't the first time a farmer forgot to close the cover on a return elevator when first heading out in the field. It's like forgetting to close the door on the gravity box and dumping the first hopper into the wagon.
Hope you filmed some of those big steam machines I saw in the background. It would be neat to see some of the power original "big tractors". When you get a chance, you should come to the Stump Town Steam Threshers Reunion in Cadiz Ohio next year. It's a really neat experience
Massey Harris is my all time favorite classic tractor brand. I have a 44 special with a full hydraulic loader on my small farm and we use it everyday. We know for sure it has over 60000 hours and motor has never been opened I have used it everyday for 23 years my grandfather has for Close to 50 years and my great grandfather used it for quite a few years also. It's also the snow plow tractor for winter and it can be -40°f and it starts like it's 80 out.
@@lukebecker1959 Every tractor company has borrowed and copied somebody else's work,very few companies can say they really"built"their own stuff. Deere is the most original though.
My neighber had a little combine i think it was a mc cormick. No steering wheel used two levers and had two swivel wheels in back. Wondering if you have seen one. He traded it for a 300 Massy when they came out.
There combines were too far out of date to try to refresh them against monsters like the IH 915, the Deere 6600/7700 and the MF combines. They didn’t have the market share to justify the expense of a clean sheet combine
Also their combine factory was located along a river that often flooded in the spring and it needed to be replaced. Thus they decided it wasn't worth the investment. As told to my dad and me when we asked a JI Case rep why they were dropping combines during MI State Farmer's Week program.
Another great.display of equipment advances. I've seen some of these old machines setting in fence rows. I've always wondered just how they ran & how well they ran also. Stay safe.
Around here farmers commonly stored their draper canvases inside the combine on the strawwalkers in the off season . Pappy grabbed the canvas out of a A-C all-crop trade=in one day and dropped it on ground intending to unfold it . As he reached down a fair sized copperhead hastily emerged in a rather foul mood !
I think they need to plant an earlier maturing soybean, maybe a group 1 or 2 instead of a 3 or 4 which I'm assuming this area would be. That way maybe it would develop better before they kill it off. I also think they should drill it solid. It's hard to see what these old machines are capable of, it's also lousy to combine when they go in clumps. Yes, I know in thicker, higher yielding beans they'd have to crawl along, I'd just rather see them going that way than in this 10-15bu rate.
This is a very nice Video to learn about classik threshing techincs and what was produced during the early daiys when self propelled where taking place.
The Allis side deposit combine is unique, everyone is very special, I guess the farm is a private farm that make the crops and ground available and in the process get his crops harvest and plow in return, or how that the logistics work around that
This is a former Air Force bass owned by the City of Rantoul. The land is leased out for the show and crops. These crops are mainly a prop to show the machines working. They are not worried about the yield. It is just for fun. With 100,000 visitors at $15 a person the ground is yielding just fine 😁
Yes it was. The soybean harvest at the show is for demonstration. They plant them extra early to harvest in August. They are so short I doubt they make 5 bu to the acre. They are basically a prop. They spray the beans with salt water in late July so they are dry for the show. It’s just so the combines can be seen working. They leave the return open to dump the few beans out.
I would love to drive that old Case combine. And to give credit where credit is due, those axelflow combines truly were a technological advancement in agriculture
Hay you have any videos of a new idea power unit sheller we had one with a 4, row header we ran that thing day and night did a nice job would just be cool to see one again thanks love your videos
Yes at this show the crops are just a prop to show how the machines work. These are 70 day beans so they are ready for the show. Unfortunately In 2019 there was a drought and beans yielded very poorly. They were green and few so they just dropped them on the field. With 60,000 people in attendance at $20 a person the bean yield or loss is not of great concern.
The canvas conveyor goes way back to horse drawn days. MacDon who is a leader in Draper development has been involved in harvesting tech for 70 years. What is old is new again.
With a wet spring and late plant date and having to be sprayed with salt water two weeks before the show a big yield was not meant to be. At least there was something to show harvesting.
Like the video, as my family farms I’m curious how they have soybeans ready this early in that part of the country?. I’m sure it’s an early variety...Probably has something to do with why they don’t look good.
Might want to put the cover on the return elevator on the JI Case 1660 :)
I'm sure that isn't the first time a farmer forgot to close the cover on a return elevator when first heading out in the field. It's like forgetting to close the door on the gravity box and dumping the first hopper into the wagon.
@@hturbo1007 I know it isn't the first time for leaving the cover open. LOL
That old J I Case combine is awesome.
The returns auger on the first case combine has a missing cover and all the crop is falling on the floor!1 love the you tube site
I wonder if the case operator knows the tailings auger is open
ok where am i supposed to be looking for tailings auger please
ok i see it its on the first combine
Great video! Nice to see the older combines still working hard. Thanks for sharing.
Caught Mike Less making his video!
If you watch his soybean video you will see me 😁. Mike and I had a good visit at the show.
All the utes sitting there look like the flocks of birds following along as soil gets turned over in the spring.
Lol
Damn seagulls hahaha

The tailings elevator chain cover was off in the first shot of the case 1160
IH header sounds like everyone I been around which is several sickle and reel clanging and banging....
But still I like watching the old machines..
It's so amazing how far combines have came. From these old beauties to the new combines we see on your videos. Great stuff 🚜👏👍
Isn't it great that the founder of International-Harvester last name was Deereing??.(HEHE!!)😎👍
4 gauge Deere even copied that hahaha.
@@interman7715 Yep,I.H.copied everything...HAHA!!😀👍
4 gauge Haha good try mate you mean JD copies everyone 😊
@@interman7715 they really do copy everyone
@@lukebecker1959 Every tractor company has borrowed and copied somebody else's work,very few companies can say they really"built"their own stuff.
Deere is the most original though.
What engineering to come up with this stuff.
A combine is a harvest factory on wheels. Always interesting to watch.
Those IHCs are still a modern looking machine.
I remover seeing new 1400 series on the dealers lot in a row with new 2+2s. It seems like it was just yesterday.
My neighber had a little combine i think it was a mc cormick. No steering wheel used two levers and had two swivel wheels in back. Wondering if you have seen one. He traded it for a 300 Massy when they came out.
Sounds like your neighbor might have had a 101. Combines have grown up over the years.
There was one at the show, picking corn.
Why did JI CASE give up building combines in the 1970s?
Favorit 926 Vario because they could never figure out why their returns weren’t making it back to the cylinder
There combines were too far out of date to try to refresh them against monsters like the IH 915, the Deere 6600/7700 and the MF combines. They didn’t have the market share to justify the expense of a clean sheet combine

That’s the great thing about this show. You get to see and hear the machines in action.
It's just incredible how far machinery has come in the past 40 plus years!
Hello
Hi. Thank you for watching.
I remember seeing a J.I. Case combine with a V-8 big block in it on Tractorhouse
Most likely a Chrysler V8. First farm machine I ever got to ride in was a Case 1060.
@@bigtractorpower it was a Chrysler. Really cool that you got to ride one.

Interesting history. Thank you for sharing. I hope no one got bit.
Too bad all combines did not include the year of manufacturing.
Now there’s some classic machines. That MH 21 A was outstanding.
It is a cool combine to get to see in action.
That was amazing. The fact that these historic farming machine's are still working is amazing🚜👍
It’s great to get to see them in action.
Beans didn't do to well.
Late spring and early kill off. Not a good combo.

Was serial No.1 working all its life?
As far as I know it has. I saw it in a Case IH 100,000 Axial-Flow combines about 20 years ago.
These are some nice combines
👍👍
This is a very nice Video to learn about classik threshing techincs and what was produced during the early daiys when self propelled where taking place.
I was there Friday
Very cool. That’s when this was filmed.

awesome
Was it just me or was the Case's return auger open?
Yes it was. The soybean harvest at the show is for demonstration. They plant them extra early to harvest in August. They are so short I doubt they make 5 bu to the acre. They are basically a prop.

American Iron still going strong! I love it!
👍👍
I think there’s a bigger combine than the 1660 it’s a 1665 idk
The 1665 is the same as the 1660. The 1660 is for small grains and the 1665 is a corn machine.
Ah I see thanks for the info
1680?
Joshua Smith JI case never made 1680 that was made by case IH
@@Tractorandsirens yeah I know I thought he was talking about an IH. Didn't watch far enough. My mistake
I would love to drive that old Case combine. And to give credit where credit is due, those axelflow combines truly were a technological advancement in agriculture
The first farm machine I ever took a ride in was a Case 1060. They are my favorite combine.
Nice old combines . Did notice the end was missing on the tailings return elevator on the 1660 Case .
Intermann 77 . It's the Case 1660 special not the IH . Iknow the difference . It's the one when vid first starts . Orange not red !!
This show is on my bucket list
Nice machines, I have a older harvest machine Mcornic International 101
I use to plant whet
👍👍👍
So... How big is the flag?
I love the old combines. There so cool
Hay you have any videos of a new idea power unit sheller we had one with a 4, row header we ran that thing day and night did a nice job would just be cool to see one again thanks love your videos
I filmed a 708 Uni m.ua-cam.com/video/RjxEv_BideY/v-deo.html
I've always wanted one thats pulled behind the tractor
They are neat. If you have not seen it check out the pull type John Deere 42 harvesting corn in this video m.ua-cam.com/video/ZB2cRPrvAnU/v-deo.html
The case had the right elevator door open , beans falling out

i thought draper heads were a new invention, turns out they stole the patent from 70 years ago when they had a draper feederhouse!
The canvas conveyor goes way back to horse drawn days. MacDon who is a leader in Draper development has been involved in harvesting tech for 70 years. What is old is new again.
Why is tailings conveyor open in JI Case 1660?
I do not know. It might have been a mistake.
These older models are Alsome. Love the lineup of combines in this video.
😁👍👍
The no caber back in the day the wind was your friend
Yes indeed if it was blowing away and not at you.
@@bigtractorpower yep friend or foe I should have said.
great video
1440 is the first axial flow combine
This is serial #1 1460.
those beans look to be going a solid 15 bu/acr
With a wet spring and late plant date and having to be sprayed with salt water two weeks before the show a big yield was not meant to be. At least there was something to show harvesting.
That's a neat piece of history there .
Thank you for watching.
Very need looking combines p
They are neat to see in action for sure.

Thanks again BTP.👍😀
Thank you for watching. It is fun to film and share these classic machines.

Always in soybeans.
First comment
First
Nobody cares
Big tractor power does care
Lol
*well yes but actually no*
Who cares if your first comment i just came to see the old combines
