It's just amazing how far the farm tractors have come over the years, including the other equipment. Nice to hear an old farmer tell some of the history behind the farm equipment that he has used at one time & taken the time to restore so caringly enough that we all can enjoy seeing. Thank You for posting.
I think me and this guy would've gotten along really well. He's wearing coveralls, has a nice International Harvester collection and knows his stuff about them, and hates running ethanol gas in old stuff with a carburetor.
Wanna meet this guy...hope he is still around n doing well....absolutely love IH farm all tractors...we have 8 on r farm a 30 regular a F-12 ..2 Hs a super m t-a ..a 560..a 706..n a 1066 turbo
nice collection. i have a 1948 farnall cub, smallest of the farmalls but they are a decent small tractor. i bought it to mow my 2 acres, plow my driveway and possibly put a garden in. i just love IH, i also have a IH built cub cadet 147. i figured i have to have something to mow my lawn and clean out the driveway so why not do it in style? i do have an appreciation for all farmalls and IH built equipment
i also love the way that all farmalls are pretty mucb built the same way, just larger or smaller in the case of the cub. the cub is very similar to that H he has, same clutch/ brake pedal arrangement, same type of gearbox and front blade hookup. if you know how to hook up attachments on a cub you could probably hook up attachments on an H without much trouble
That is because it is not pure alcohol, it is corn oil gov would not let them make pure grain alcohol for gas, corn oil won't atomize in aspirated carbs,, they wouldn't let them make pure grain because you can distill the gas to get the grain alcohol back out of it

I miss Jim, he often helped me on my unstyled tractor projects. Someday my collection will be on youtube like jim's.
Great guy, was so fun to visit with. Grateful we were able to connect at his farm to do this video. Hard to believe nearly 10 years ago now

Men and tractors like that are hard to find. Thank you for the video.
What a wonderful old man .... Sharp as a tack ..... "I dips me lid to you .... "
His collection is awesome. I wish I could have them.
