I opperated a Ford 9600,8600,9700 & John Deere. 4020,3020,1520,2510 among others while working on a farm in the 80's.it was the best time of my life.
My favorite tractor is the same as many people's favorite... Dad's tractor.
😁👍👍
Almost... My Pa’s

That MINNEAPOLIS-MOLINE is a beast .
Hard not to acknowledge of all these tractors the Massey Fergusons are the ones still out there working today. You just can't beat those Perkins engines.
Gotta be Massey Ferguson and Ford for me the best .
We run two ford 9600s and an 8000 so this is right up my alley
Spent alot of time as a teen on a Farmall 560 6 cylinder diesel hauling loads, spreading manure, disking, cultivating, chopping corn stalks, baling, etc. Loved that machine. Then later blew out my ears in an 806 with a cab that trapped all the sound. Then a 986 sweet noise relief! Was a 1466 and an old 300 in the mix also
my after school job in mid seventies was plowing with a Massey 165 and 3 bottom plow on my grandparents and uncles farm on P.E.I. ( with my dog riding along on the floorboard ) .... great little tractor that could do some great wheelies with the plow raised 🙂
thank for bringing back some great memories 🙂
Now seeing the 1155 with major wheel slip was sweet. Something we don’t see these days. Same as the Moline. I love to see them digging.
Not many 2wds doing big tillage any more.
Everyone takes a bigger bite than they can handle. Drop a bottom.
My grandfather had an International 856, so i'm kinda partial to this era of International. Miss working with him in that old tractor. Love the channel.
The 856 and the other 56 tractors have a great look and are solid machines.
Me too T182!
I had a 806 diesel with an Year Around cab i put on it, sold it in 1978 still miss that tractor.
Didn't know they ever had three point system for 1470 case
I love these years!! No computers, just big steel machines to turn the dirt over! Nothing but raw horse power!!
as I had wondered over the last few years when the tractors came with computers. Do they make the crops get better yields?
Always loved the 6 cylinder Olivers...from to old gasoline tractors to the 1850 and that sweet-sounding diesel
I grew up in the 60's and the 70's working a dairy farm in the Endless Mountains on PA. We were a Massey Ferguson farm so they definitely have a special place for me especially the 1085. Most of the farms around us were either Massey or Farmall farms,
I grew up around Ford tractors and they have always been my favorite tractors . When they went to New Holland in my opinion they took a major back step in tractors.
Don't be bloody stupid they then and now have and had the mighty fiat owning and designing. That's what makes nh the awesome force they are today.
To be honest Fiat poured millions and millions of dollars into Ford New Holland to bring that line up to world class
Ditto.
@@paulsharpe6996 meaning?
@@paulsharpe6996 I had a cousin named Paul Sharpe from Oregon I haven't seen in 61 years. I grew up in Wisconsin riding an Oliver 1850 gas, about 90 hp.
Ford 9600 by sure. The 9600 was King around the country in the late 70's. Loved the reliability with the company and parts accessibility.
I hope to locate more Ford 8000 to 9600s to film.
I grew up watching all the old classic tractors.
My all time favourite is the 1150 Massey Ferguson first row crop tractor with a V8.
Paul Hudson I wish there were more 1150s and 1155s in Australia. I really want one
We had a brand spanking new 1155 Ferguson in '74 . Chucked the crank right out the block without so much as a tick ,clunk or sputter with 28 hours on it . Needless to say I quickly became a huge Allis Chalmers fan when the new one arrived next day . It was a beast and would drag twice what the Ferguson would . Thanks for the memories .👍👍
Big Bud!! What a Tractor 🚜
😁👍👍
A Massey guy at heart but those old Ford's were good tractors too..looks really cool with duals on too
Spent a lot of my teenage years in the early 70's on a 1066 and Ford 9000. Good memories.
I've been to a lot of vintage farm class tractor pulls and the 1066 seems to always dominate its class.
Im 32 years old. Grew up on a Dairy farm. This video was memory lane.
Great to hear. Thank you for watching.
Steve Vlietstra Thank You for posting! God Bless
Ford 9600 was one of my favorites!
My favorite is John Deere 4320 and Ford 9600. The Ford looks so impressive
Case tractors are my favorite, especially the 30 and 70 series. We ran a 970, an 1170 and a 1470. I got the privilege to run a 730 that belonged to our neighbor. Loved them all.
Drove a 9600 Ford tractor when I was a kid it was a beast!
I'm curious, I know ford had a powershift on the 6000 but did the 9600 have one
I like the look of the 9600 Ford, my neighbor has one with a cab on it, pretty neat. My favorite tractor would probably be an allis chalmers 190XT, can’t beat the turbo charged power of that tractor!!
The 190 XT is a solid plow machine. Great tractor. I had a neighbor growing up whose main tractor was a FORD 9000 with a cab. I hope to get to film more 8000/8600 and 9000/9600 tractors.
A lot of companies tried to challenge the 190 xt and no one came close
More hours in the seat of a Ford 9600 than I can total. Thanks BTP for the memories.
We used to run a 9600. What a beast. Great power and brakes.
That 9600 Ford is AWSOME reminds me of when I was a kid
I like finding big blue Fords to film. My neighbor had a 9000 with a cab when I was a kid.
@Jim Stark awesome
Great video, love all the tractors,but I grew up with Ford, 7700 blue power special ,it was a Cadillac to me , in its day,lol, how I miss the old days
Very cool tractor. I have the sales literature on that one. It came with chrome trim and chrome stack I think.
@@bigtractorpower that's so cool , if I ever found a nice one ,I would buy it probably, lol.
I was born and raised in Iowa and I first would like to thank the people that put this video on!! I'm so loyal to my state even though I spent about 25 years in my adult life living elsewhere. It thrills my heart to see that rich black soil being turned over and worked by these excellent amount of tractors you have in this video and also to see these big steel tractors working again in the fields, As well as seeing the farmers bouncing up and down in the seat again in these older tractors with a piece of cake equipment being pulled behind. Those are the days that I grew up on the farm and my father had four different tractors and my brothers all argue to this day which was the best. I, & another sister worked Very Hard to five my parents a 50th anniversary quilt which represented all four of those tractors on the quilt because of the arguments that took place once I presented the idea of representing Mom and Dad's life together...(& what a Grand Life we had w/ them & us 12 children on our Farms❣️)
So, What were the Four tractors: a John Deere 3130 (later, w/ a Suncover😊), and International Harvester, A Farmall MD (around 1940ish era that had been my Grandfather's..I really like that tractor because my mom could write on it with him once in a while and it had the tires spread wider apart in the front and a stirring wheel w/ the "LONG"'CRANK ROD ??(sorry guys I'm an artist not a tractor mechanic... it was one of my favorite because it looked cool LOL and had the best sounding engine--it really "purred" when it ran; old Used Massey-Ferguson (my Mother's favorite- she said it was easy to see over to drive as she was short and she's like the steering mechanism in it; .... also there was a brief time there was a blue Ford that my father borrowed from my uncle on the farm when I was 11 years old but it was not ours but it was fairly new and shiny… My dad hated it LOL.
Thank you for this wonderful video❣️I can't tell you how much this meant to me to be able to go back through memory lane and reminisce being on the farm. It was the happiest days of my life and while I am approaching 70 years old, and I never drove a tractor. I certainly helped Bill Haley and helped with the corn harvest and everything else it involves farming and I walked a lot of fields Interior live do you lunches WAY OIT TO THE BACK "QUARTER" (of 640 acres) to take Daddy his lunch...Mother had too many babies and she couldn't leave the house and Daddy would meet me halfway😊❣️THANK YOU
Growing up we had a Ford 9600 with a cab I got to spend a lot of time in that tractor and dont ever remember not liking it, I think it was 150 hp great engine and just a very nice all around tractor!
Ford 9600
Great video! I grew up on these, my father was a big Massey man but we had Olivers,Cockshuts as well. Back then everyone had atleast one tractor.
Thanks for that Oliver plow at the start. My brother and I used to fight over who got to use it over the John Deere that always plugged up in stalks. We grew up mostly JD people but the Oliver plow always was fought over!
9600
ford and big bud
Oliver, Steiger, MM and White. The White 2-70 was a clean looking machine.
Like seeing all the older equipment
In 1971 Dad bought a new Ford 4000, that has been my favorite tractor every since.
4000 su was the tractor
That IH 1066 sure brought back memories. A friend of the family had 4 of them on his farm. 3 cabbed and one standard. They were always impressive to watch work.
I like how each brand has there own unique sound. I love the sound of the old Allis Chalmers, But even the Case, And the John Deere have a nice different sound. Then there is the Oliver with the screamin Jimmy. The Minneapolis Moline sounded good as well. All nice tractors, I like all brands. Would like to see more of these videos.
Thank you for your post. I do plan to do more time range videos. They are fun to put together.
⅞
Case traction king look to be fun.
My favorite from this time was 4230jd. We had 3 of them. 2 quads 1 powershift. I remember the powershift slipped a lot because my dad use to yell about it all time after we bought it used with 2500hr on it.
Quad With partial was best during this time.IMO
Now the full powershift in 4250 was a different animal. Very good. They must have figured clutches were not way to go.
What a video, great old big iron, love that 9600, beautiful video, the first 50 seconds take me back to 1976
The 9600 was a nice find this fall. I was out filming a Lexion and this 9600 was at work across the road.
@@bigtractorpower Thanks for stopping and film that beauty
Deffinately Case 1030 Comfort King. Grew up with a 60's version(the older style with the round lights up front) Factory cab, 18.4/38 rears fluid filled, with gigantic donut weights bolted on the inside of the rim, 11x16 tri rib fronts, filled with fluid. Dual hyd remotes, 3 point, 540 pto... all on a Wheatland(western special). That thing was rated for 100HP at 1600 rpm, but full throttle was well over 2 grand. That tractor could pull WAY over it's class, between the weights and fluid. That was our big tractor growing up, I loved everything about it.
BTP, would love to see a video of one of these. Would like to see a 1570 working hard too, that was the big boy in the 70's.
That Ford 9600 is the baddest looking tractor ever made , my great uncle had one . I’d ride with him ever chance I could as a child
FORD 9600
I bleed A-C orange because my lawnmower is a Snapper. I very much enjoy the vintage big tractor power. Thank you from Southern Illinois farm country
Big muscle allis for sure
My family farmed with Massey Ferguson and I still think they are great tractors in the modern era as well. Thanks for your videos!!
Ford 9600, Allis 210, Oliver 1950 and MM. They have classic style.
Any tractor from that era is impressive. Growing up that’s all we had we the older equipment from the 60s and 70s and I grew up in the 90s . Still have every single piece along with a couple new Deere’s that’s just been added the last couple years. But you just can’t beat those old tractors. I have a hard time seeing this new stuff ever making it 30 or 40 years. The 9600 is my favorite though
Love seeing the old Oliver implements at work
Down here in Central Alabama. Everyone was farming with high horsepower Ford's for high horsepower tractors till the mid 90's. Then everyone went to John Deere and Case.
Devon Love I agree. Mississippi boy here
Grew up on a White 2-105. Had a four bottom roll over plow. 21 foot tandem disk and a 12 foot flail
The Ford was my favourite back then.
Mine as well they paid my salary I worked in research at Basildon Essex uk for 30 + years
Gordon Exmouth UK
This is Robert- MF 1135 & JD 4020 were the ones I drove mostly in tillage operations.
Both good tractor. I hope to find an 1135 to film sometime.
Man, that 1950-T was just rockin' it! If you went up 10 horses you got the heavy, low slung, mellow 2050, but the T just ripped! It had Attitude!
Yes it was! And for such a small engine and to not be blowing smoke!
1972 4320 with John Deere cab factory air. May. 1972. With a 12 row side dressing rig. We had two one for Dad one for me from post holes to planting to dragging roads. 8000 plus hrs. Till 2001 one clutch. For repairs. Not bad huh? 7520s the bigger Deere four wheel drive did heavy work most pretty good tractors. Thanks for the memories.
Ford 9600 my favorite
👍👍. Just got a 9000 filmed this week.
That ford is awesome!!!!!👍
Doesn't matter what colour or brand, i like all of these tractors. These big machines from this era are just so good looking 😎
I alwaways remember back in the eighties having a ford 5000 on the farm that colour blue and white got my attention
Russell Petrie I love the old Blue 5000s

The FORD 9600 Is a massive favourite with me, I'm a FORD TRACTOR man through & through, grew up with FORD tractors from a kid in the 60's & 70's whilst working on farms until my early 20's & I still run FORD tractors to this day running my Tree Surgery & Landscaping Business.
I watch all the farming videos, as farming still runs through my veins, keep up the good work bigtractorpower, you keep making um & I'll be watching um.
The Ford 9600 was a great tractor. Simple, comfortable operation, full day's work on a tank of fuel, plenty of room on the platform to move around. Olivers with the Detroit diesel were screamers and just uncomfortable to run. Others I never ran. My FIL had an 1155 and I never liked it. My BIL had a JD and it was reliable but the 9600 was the best of the lot in all respects. Just a tough, well built machine.
IH 856 was our top dog when I was young. Still running too!
Am I the only one chuckling at the 66 series that was riding the struggle bus behind the 1470 early on in the video? It was all over the place!
I like many tractors. See a nicely restored Allis Chalmers is always a head turner for me.
When I was a kid my great grandfather had a diesel 830 case comfort king. Loved that tractor first I ever ran.
We have 730 basicaly same thing few little things make her one size smaller not much all the same 730 830 930 we have a 530 comfy case to their both gorgious only thing whith case is their to fast some times like mowing they dont have a slow enough gear as id like great in mud ive ben threw stuff with a 4×2 case 4×4 tractors would get hung up
@@ericlakota6512 I agree with you all the way.
Nice video. I'm surprised you didnt feature a IH 1468 or 1568 with a v8 or the beastly John Deere 6030. I sure loved the sound of the Moline.
Love the Ford 9600. At one point between two neighbors they had 3 of them.
Some of my other favorites case 2590, Ford tw-15 series ll, IH 66 and 86 series, and cast iron grill Oliver's and Whites.
A farmer I knew in the70's had a 2255 Oliver with V8. Never got to run it but was awesome to look at and as a teenager dream of running
I ran an Oliver 1950-T just like the one in the video. Was one of my favorite tractors!
Growing up during the 60's and early 70's on a small family farm in North Dakota. I always had great affection for the Minneapolis Moline tractors, we never owned one but I always thought they sounded great when working a field. PRAIRIE GOLD! I find the old farm equipment much more interesting.
Molines are cool tractors. I like the G-1000 Vista and G-1355 allot.
my 1970 John Deere 4020 all time favorite...
😁👍👍
Great video love the 9600
I'm an old school farmer. I remember plowing tobacco with mules. So all the tractors you showed are awesome . I loved them all. But my four favorite John Deere, Ford, international. Massey Ferguson. Oh yes and Case . I kinda liked David brown to. I remember operating one for a farmer I think it was pushing about 70 to 80 horses. It was a nice tractor . Good power. 😄👍
I like the steiger
All tractors are good, but i’m in love with 70’ Fiat tractors.
My uncle used to own a Ford 9600 ... As a kid I would spend hundreds of hours on it ploughing and cultivating fields
My neighbor still has one and it still runs good
I have a Ford 7600 ... Used to be my grandfather's and still runs beautifully despite its age
Greetings from South Africa 😀👍
Oliver and Massey Ferguson .best year's of my life also.
Great tractor brands.
Love the 70 series Case tractors. Love the design and power
We had a 770 case. So much nicer than the 730 it replaced
The dream tractor! 9600 ford
That’s a really cool Ford Tractor
You can tell the Steiger has a Screamin Jimmy!
Had a few of these but my all time fav is the Versatile !
😁👍👍
Minneapolis Moline tractor of choice
That Massey's got tons more power than traction, those rear wheels look like a rototiller!
That field had been plowed up 6 times in two days during a plowing demonstration.
Oliver 1550 first tractor that I ever drove! But really enjoy them all from this time period
Yikes, the 1155 looked bad- needed duals!
Love the memories. THANKS. - Dean from Minnesota
My ears are ringing after watching this video.If you spent your younger years on a tractor back then you know what I'm talking about.
John Deere 4320 was my favorite
Big blue is my favorite
9600 & 9700 were great tractors. You could turn them up a lot.
I like finding Ford tractors to film.
bigtractorpower I grew up on the old Fords. I have my own place now and have bought a 5000 and 7600 row crop. I use them more than my Challenger 535 with a cab hahaha. Great machines and very reliable.
We run a 4610,5610, 2 7710s and our biggest tractor a 9700 Ford.
John Deer 4020
You could the 8600 also
We have 8600 keep all liquads up and runn them all the time and they run great love ford most i like them all though i feel fords are ahead of their time in 70s wish i had a bigbud but i dont have room to turn one around
Thank you BTP for a great video my favorite tractor is 1969 John Deere 4520 the one I drove a few years ago had a hiniker 1300 cab take care and God Bless
Love the video! Seeing the Ford was really great and it's a true classic. I would like to see a J.I. Case 930 in operation. I grew up with the 30 series and now looking to get one for restoration.
The 1030 and 930 are high on my wish list to film. I just have to find them in the field. I have a video of Case tractors plowing at ua-cam.com/video/qsw5rQCWS_U/v-deo.html
BTP I'll keep on the lookout for the vaunted 30 series Case for you.
I grew up on ACs, but I like all kinds of different brands. I like to hear the IHs and Olivers run. If I had to pick one out of these, of course I’m going with the Allis 210😁
U
Almost impossible to beat the 210
Got to be the Ford 9600, I can’t remember them in person, but have seen a few over the years. Great video, keep up the great work. If you’ve got any footage of a Ford 9700 please share it? I used to drive one of those when I was a kid, was about 150hp, smoked like mad, but it could pull alright.
All of them, but my most favourite is the Massey Ferguson
I had a Ford 8700 it was a Workhorse
