You know your getting old when tractors of your child hood are becoming Antiques
I hear you. I grew up with these being big new tractors.
I never heard of the Marc-McConnel,thanks for making us aware of this rare tractor B.T.P.. 🚜
Thank you for watching. There were several sold in Western New York where I grew up. Dairy farms really liked them.
@@bigtractorpower Interesting.🤔
Both of those girls are really carrying the mail with pretty good size rippers and pretty minimal slip considering how wet it looks. Very impressive awesome video
😁👍👍. Thank you for watching.
Those v8's sounded so awesome. Our neighbors had one.
😎👍👍
I just love the old 4wd tractors. They look good and sound good working.
I love these types of stream big old tractors also love the new big tractors on tracks thank you sir
😁👍👍
Love seeing older tractors like this
Thank you for watching.
Great video takes me back to when 4880 was the first ever brand new Tractor we had but was in practical but was great Tractor to operate and miss Tractors like that. We got 3075 and 3060 that were great Tractor, s!
Thanks for sharing these giant machines!
😁👍👍
Thank You BTP. Wonderful tractors and really loved the throaty bellow of the tractor as it sped up on the road to move to another field.Love that sound!
It is a good sound for sure with the V8 903.
In Conrad Montana there was a 4880 that had 3406 Cat put in it.
Mike and his classic tractors Nice guy .
😁👍👍
You know your getting old when you can remember when International Harvester went out of business.(1986)
never even heard of that yellow tractor. pretty neat
The McConnells are neat machines.
First tractor available with a phone in it. Big deal in the day. Now your phone syncs up with the radio. Fridge is getting common. Hands free driving. And 600 hp is more common around here than ever before. My grandpa still had a team of horses when he started out. Farmall M was a big deal to him. He lived long enough to drive our 7800 John Deere when he was 95. Fwa air seat and cab and halogen lights. He told me then I was pretty spoiled.
As others have said love the unusual classics , especially when they are still in use !! All of your research to get the history is much appreciated , been involved in farming all my life and never heard of McConnell Marc so very interesting !! These tractors are only about 100 miles from home ! Interesting how that McConnell made it to Illinois ! Thanks for the video !
The McConnell in this video was sold new in Western New York. I know of 4 McConnells sold new in WNY. There were several McConnells sold in the Canadian wheat belt.
That’s pretty awesome learning about the tractor go Canada and it’s great to see that iron working in the fields
Really doing a nice job on the corn stubble.
The Dominator is s solid machine on tillage.
The Dominator earned its name
Nice I ran a versatile 900 903 V8 dual stack sounded good but a gutless wonder when I was a kid.
I had no idea about the combines and McConnell Marc's. Very interesting. I love Detroit's too so that made it all the cooler!
Lots of history in a short period of time. I hope to find a Western Combine some day to film.
Great video! Looking at comments, I'm not the only one who wasn't aware of McConnell-Marc tractors. It is interesting how much field debris ends up on the back deck of the Massey. In the opening segment where the tractors separate, I could hear the Massey really growl. The M-M had a pretty good look to it with the hood slope. Really enjoyed these tractors!
Thank you for watching.
Awesome to see those two beasts working ground. I've never seen or heard of the yellow outfit but their again there's probably several companies that I've never heard of since mechanized farming really started. Good information as always. Stay safe.
Thank you for watching. I like finding these classic to share.
Yeah, never ever heard of a McConnell tractor, heard of hedge cutters n such but not that. Nice that it’s still out making a living
Thank you for watching.
Great work as usual!!!
Thank you for watching.
Hi a good video of old tractors that you don't see in the UK keep up the good work and take care Graham uk
Thank you for watching.
Great video, and great history.
So Massey combines got the design from White, whose combine division was based on Cockshutt... there’s a Cockshutt connection down the line with these! Neat!
Also, where did you film the Agcostar shown?
As always, another great vid. I appreciate all the specs and costs you give with your vids.
It’s fun to share these big machines. Thank you for watching.
That was very interesting, never know of the brand McConnell-Marc in tractors, this was another learning video for me, thanks
There were a few of these sold in Western New York where I grew up. Dairy farms really liked them in the area. The one in the video was sold new by Ford New Holland dealer near Buffalo, NY. It was traded and made its way to Illinois.
Awesome video!
Thank you for watching.
Fabulous video, thanks BTP
Thank you for watching.
Something about those older 4WD articulated tractors with their angularity makes them look more tough looking and business like compared to today’s swoopy looking tractors that look like they are fragile and 20, years from now will be in the junkyard.
People can hate on 2 Stroke Detroit Diesels all they want but the fact remains the 71 series engine was in production from 1938 thru 1995 with very little change in architecture no other Diesel engine can come close to that record of solid dependable performance. I would hate to think how many Detroit Diesels have set for a decade or mor and with just freeing up of the rack and injectors with hand tools are running a few hours later. Myself while it’s interesting seeing new equipment in the field I really love seeing the old iron still getting it done decades later.
😁👍👍
As I'm getting up to go out in the field because it's frozen enough to do work big tractor power video good job that is a different tractor have never seen one of those before
I hope your tillage went well. Most of the tillage here in WKY got done between midnight and 8 am this year on frozen ground.
The Massey/AGCO story is a very odd and intertwined one. It’s always interesting to see how this brand were acquired by one company, then spun off to another, and so on and so forth. Very cool again BTP
It is an interesting story. The combines and 4wds all came apart only to be reunited.
I'm so happy this isn't another John Deere video!
I like to feature every brand. In the past seven days I have New Holland, Challenger, International Harvester, Massey Ferguson and John Deere.
@@bigtractorpower that's true....but 16 of the last 30 videos have been John Deere LMAO 😋
I have allot of access to green iron. I make every effort through out the year to get every brand. 😁
@@74superglide who cares LMAO
@@bigtractorpower I kinda wish you could travel toward the east coast but I know it would be a long trip for you.
Noticed the mud coming off the tires going down the road. Are there any restrictions for this? Where I live we have loggers and when it rains or the conditions are muddy the trucks are not allowed to leave debris on the roads.
Like them MF 4 X4 tractor. Never heard of the yellow tractor brand. Very Cool🇺🇸🚜🎄🎅👍
I like finding these classics to share.
I thought the 1000 had the 12.7. Learn something new every day
👍
There’s something about trackers I just love
😁👍👍
So do you have a preference? Wheels or tracks or doesn't matter? I think a lotbof us who grew up with tires tend to like the simplicity and cost of tires.
Thumbs up BTP !!
Thank you.
A lot bigger than the 135 I used to drive . I would love do drive a 4880 or 5200
They are nice 4wds.
Thumbs up !
Thank you for watching.
Merry Christmas BTP
Merry Christmas.
This must be around Gibson City or Arthur then?
Yes sir.
Just north of Arthur
Very interesting. I always wondered which lineage the AGCOstar lineup came from
I hope to get more field time with the AGCO STAR to do a full feature on it.
MF 4000 series was originally built in Des Moines, Iowa. After MF closed that plant in 1981 they moved production to Detroit tractor plant. And after Detroit plant closed early 1983 the production was moved to Brantford. Does anyone know when they facelifted the 4000 series with new decals and brown/tan interior? Was it right when they switched production to Brantford or later?
That is a good question on the changes. I was focused on Massey Combines Corporation connection for this video. It is my long term goal to film a 4000, 4840 and 4900 to connect all dots for the 4000 series.
How many McConnell Marc 1000s were built and sold? Any idea? Were they reliable? ... and, was there a Chinese supply-chain operation? Thanks.
I am not sure how many were built. I will need to research that. They are a solid and reliable tractor.
@@bigtractorpower Thanks for getting back to me on this... its very interesting for sure!
how about a video on the "snoopy"or anteater international tractors ,you do such a good job on explaining and info would like to know the idea behind the design and specs etc.thanks
I am a huge 2+2 fan. I have not located many to film. I do have a 3788 and 7288 on the channel. I hope to find more.
@@bigtractorpower thanks i got to disk with one{well hold thew heel in my uncles lap lol}always heard they were good but just didnt cacht on.thanks again.
I remember when they came out new
Me too. 👍👍
My opinion, the only way to go is tracks with articulated tractor
Hell I remember the grey Ferguson = Harry Ferguson with a large factory in Coventry UK
Faster & cheaper with the Ferguson System 3 point linkage
Gordon Exmouth uk
my first coment on video as moderater
Thank you for helping with the live premier of this video.
Old Massey could use some new paint.
It’s field proven. This farmer has the Mcconnell Marc 1000 and a 990 as well as a Massey Ferguson 5200. He will pick this 4880 every time to run himself.
what up
😁👍
👍👍
Thank you Alex.
✌️✌️✌️
Thank you for watching.
wow that look wet.
It was filmed yesterday. It’s go time plow it up now or get mud or frozen out soon.
You need to invest in a drone
I feature drone cottage quite often like in the video posted just before this one @ ua-cam.com/video/aPuImmqHEJ4/v-deo.html This one was filmed by a friend for the channel.
AA+++
😁👍👍
Thank god, they still make money.
I have a horse farm, and depend on dairy farmers gir hay.
.they are going bankrupt, and I have no food for the boys.
I have had to buy abandoned farms, to try to grow gay for my horses,
Problem, it has made me a cripple
what,s the answer then
Sadly missing GPS, far too much overlap.
Andy Hutch there is only about a foot of overlap with the McConnel . It has autosteer the 4880 does not
You just keep outdoing yourself Jason. Excellent video as well
Thank you. It’s fun getting to feature the classics.
👍👍👍
Thank you for watching.
Excellent find and great video. Grew up around tired Massey’s MF 65. Massey super 92 combines. In the late 80 they were well wore
The 65 is a solid tractor. I filmed a 35 this fall I hope to get to see a 65 in the field some day.
Poetry in motion! I could barely believe that was a McConnell up front! Must be very few of them about. I remember seeing a picture of one of those when they came out. But nothing else until now! Cheers Jason
Hi George. The Mcconnells are out there. A decent amount were made but you have to look for them. They were popular sellers in Western New York State and in the Canadian wheat belt.
I would love video on Massey 1100/1135 etc
Me too. I just need to find them to film. I really want to find an 1150.
@@bigtractorpower yeah.. They are getting rare. My dad had an 1135 with duals.. Don't see many like that
We had 1977 1155 turned up to 185 hp with a straight pipe. We trading for a 4840 JD when the 2ND rear-end blew out!
Thanks for the info on the McConnell tractors. Never seen or heard of those before.
Thank you for watching. I like finding these classic tractors.
Man that's one hell of a big field.
Square and flat in IL.
Love all that historical information! You're the best.
JIM
Thank you Jim.
I've sorta always liked a Massey Ferguson especially the smaller 135 type tractors. Now the McConnell-Marc I never knew existed. Thanks for sharing
The 135 and 165 are solid tractors. Lots of interesting twists and turns. In the end both the Combines and 4wds left Massey in 1989 and returned to Massey in 1994 as AGCO acquired Massey, McConnell-Marc and Western Combines Corporation in 1994.
how can you collect so may tractors
They are used coveted many acres to prepare the ground for crops each year.
ground looks very wet, but super tillage machine.
Late fall is the time to push through a get the stalks turned under. Krause builds hood tillage machines. Thank you for watching.
Awesome! Awesome tractors and awesome video! Thanks for sharing!
Lots of good info on this video 👍. To bad that Massey doesn't have a better motor in it.
Thank you for watching.
Great video! First time ever seeing one of those yellow tractor!
I like finding interesting classics to share their history. Thank you for watching.
I really feel like having coulters in front of the shanks and discs behind makes the Dominator finish better
WOW just learned something new today!! Thanks Bigtractorpower!
Do you recommend any hey making machine. I need to buy one !
What are you wanting a mower, Baler, rake???
Thanx for another great video,regards from Lincolnshire UK. 🚜
Great vid👍interesting history, MF (AGCO) has struggle with this type of tractor compared to ridge tracks tractor MT series or challenge 1000. It’s hard to find new Challenge articulate tractor in field, only see at field days here in Australia. Wonder if AGCO will go with quad track version like companies have done?
The MT900 is a popular pan tractor here. I know one farm here that runs a pair of MT965E 4wds. The MT800s are the main seller here.
Are there a lot of tractors in the USA with front linkage? Like they would put a front disc or a front seed tank?
No. Some used to mow hay with triple mowers are around but I have never seen one in tillage or seeding here like the ones used in Europe. 30-40 ft wide implements are common here and too big to mount on the front. Many farms are using 60ft planters.
Great information as usual Jason. Love the older iron. Also love to see fall tillage. It looks so cool
Thank you for watching.
cooool iron
😎👍
That is some open flat country up there
Centeral, IL is mostly wide open square blocks.
Great video. Keep doing what you do.
Thank you for watching.
I think that it would be great if you told us inflation adjusted price along side with original price tag. It would be easier too put price in perspective.
It’s often a job to to find the original sales price. A 425 hp tractor today is every bit of $450,000 today.
First comment
Thank you for your enthusiasm.
Good find Jason!
This is a neat farm. They have two Masseys and two Mcconnells. My friend Bill filmed these. .
I always liked to watch and listen to that V-8 Cummins in the 4840. Kind of a pig on fuel economy from what I have been told, but quite a tractor. I knew nothing about the McConnel. Interesting video as usual. Thanks big tractor power
Thank you for watching.
