Half Century of Progress 2023 Friday highlights in Rantoul Illinois
• Half Century of Progre...
I hope to someday make it to this event. Looks like good time. Thanks for sharing.
It is a bucket list show for sure
Our crops look amazing here, considering what they have been through.
The last big rain that we got was May 14th. The beans had to be replanted and then had to be sprayed twice.
The beans look good but the pods are empty.
This harvest season is not looking good.
The wagon is my step dads! I remember when him and my dad painted it very cool!
That’s awesome!
Nice 1206 around the 7 minute mark.
There definitely are some people there that have never set up a plow and probably never plowed before.
I feel like every time they were telling people to step back, they were looking right at you, Bibster. Thanks for more great footage!
Oh I’m sure they were I wanted to say I’ve been dodging 2500hp pulling tractors I’m pretty sure I can avoid getting plowed under
We used to have a 237 John Deere 2 row mounted picker that we put on our 630 John Deere. That was always a full days job dragging everything out of the Quonset building and then getting it mounted to the tractor and putting everything back.
Doing 2 rows at a time now would make you just want to shoot yourself
A lot of guys that work these show say it’s fun for about a day the they are ready for ac and a cab again
@@BIBSTERSrepairshop , I bet.
Did I hear it's Mariams birthday 🎈🎂🎈🎈🎂
We had a dairy farm and ground the ear corn for roughage for the cows.
We never sold any grain. Everything that we raised, we fed
At 21:35 is a Fitch Four Drive Tractor. This particular one was in Aberdeen, Washington and was featured in the Nov/Dec 2017 “Antique Power” magazine. It was sold and now is in Lowell, Michigan east of Grand Rapids.
This tractor is the only restored and operational Fitch Model D 20-35 (featuring a Climax engine) in the Northern and Western Hemispheres. There are two in New Zealand and one in Australia. Unrestored Fitch are in New Zealand, Minnesota and 3 in California and a partial one in Las Vegas.
Thanks for the info I’ll have to look more into it was a super cool piece
Lloyd McVey drove the super banana
It was cool to see it make passes on Friday and Saturday
Never seen a corn picker like the one at about 2:30 who made it ?
I think I saw case on the side of it
