    Nice stand of beans there Roger. Back when I started out in the late 60's I scrounged up man early A Gleaner and a round back 55 Deere. The Deere was by far the better machine!

    Really clean rig.
    Takes me back to when I was a kid.

      I’m the third owner. The fellow that owned before me had it from 1972 to 2022 -50 years! Used it every year, kept meticulous maintenance records and kept it inside. I paid probably too much for it but I have not had any problems with it the past 2 years. That’s worth something.

      @@rogermiller7411 honestly, who cares what you paid for it as long as you love it and get to use it.
      My dad had a couple of 55’s and quite a few 95’s, they were his favorite. In the early 70’s he was always bringing another parts rig home. He usually just had one good, running machine and once in a while two. I learned to wrench on things because he was continually swapping parts around to make them better. Around 1980 he bought his last one, a square back 95. We only cut about ten acres a year with it for several years and it sat in the barn the rest of the time. It was in really good shape too. He finally sold it in the mid nineties because we had stopped growing grain for for several years and we needed the space in the barn. It broke his heart some because it was the end of an era for him.

    Nice video, Is that a Hinkler cab ? I Think we had some like that on some Gleaner combines

      It’s a Full Vision, Inc. cab. Still in business.

    Brings back memories.
    My dad had a very similar 45 that he used from about '74 to '97. I made a video of it in soybeans in 1996: ua-cam.com/video/Bq-t4r_y6n0/v-deo.html
    Enjoy your videos, you must have a big collection of stuff!!

      Enjoyed your video. Looks like he had a better cab.
      Not a big collection-everything I have has to do some chore if it’s running. I probably have too many plows and I have 9 old tractors. They all run but some need some attention to use for certain jobs. Thanks for watching.
