I will be using it again this fall but I will put my 560 on it since the motor will be just overhauled. I had the field rolled so it should be really nice to combine

I have more videos with older equipment. When I have some time I will get all 7 of my tractors out and video them

Thanks Leonard,hope you have all the crops harvested

I disagree. Manufacturers were and are constantly trying to keep up with the ambition of the purchaser, and were usually just a little bit behind what farmers wanted. That is why there were tandem hitch tractors in the 1950's, for example. Manufacturers weren't keeping up with the power needs of the farmer, so the farmers built them. As the farms grew, the equipment grew. As the demand for smaller equipment lessened, production stopped. After production stops, manufacturers are legally required to stock parts for 15 years. After that, it's their choice. Inventory costs money, so parts get eliminated as the demand for them goes down. You can walk into a John Deere dealership and get parts for a 60 year old 4020, but that is Deere's choice. You cannot go into a Deere dealership and get parts for a 40 year old 1050. The difference? Lots of 4020s were made and parts still sell well, versus many less 1050s bought from Yanmar, so not much demand for parts. The setup this fellow has is great, but you won't find much demand to mass produce it, at least in the US. Countries such as India and China, this would be considered huge equipment. Until it isn't. Also, in my experience, if you have 50 worn out combines out back, you have 50 worn out combines. They all wear in the same spots.

My dad had a 80 combine just like this in the later 60s and he put a hitch on his so he is the one that's a genius I'm just a copy cat lol

Thanks for watching! My pleasure

Thanks, back in the 1960s my dad had the same model combine but he pulled it with a Farmall 560. I added the hitch to the combine to pull wagons so I can unload on the go

It took many years of searching to find a combine in the great of shape

Back in the 60's my dad had a hitch built on his number 80 combine also so I copied the design the best I could remember. I just bought this combine in 2017.

Agreed. And on console

I will do a tutorial on the combine one of these next days and show the hitch close up

Thanks , planning on doing some more but using my Farmall 560 with a fresh engine overhaul and using my 41 year old 1440 combine

We use to ride the wagon doing oat picking out the grasshoppers and shoveling the wagon full.

I have a #80 with scour clean sitting in the yard...

I added the hitch and my dad had one on his too, so I kind of copy the pattern from memory

@@Blastfromthepastfarming652 great Idea!👍

Dad had one just like this, he had a blacksmith shop put a hitch it so I put one on mine

I grew up in Stacyville Iowa. Moved down here in 1985

I know, people don't seem to realize that once they are gone they are gone and not coming back

I love my pull type Massey Ferguson 35 I have no plans of parting wirh it ill just keep fixing what ever needs fixing

with drones there isn't sound because all you would hear would be the drone buzzing

@@Blastfromthepastfarming652 Your are correct. You would have had to record with a separate devise/camera and then splice it in with the editor software. Would have loved to hear the Farmall. If you by chance had a separate audio source recorded (or video) I would love to do it for you if you wanted. Let me know!

I ordered a go pro, and my friend that does the posting of my videos just acquired the software for editing and that is what we said we were going to be doing this fall between the drone and go pro

@@Blastfromthepastfarming652 Awesome, I will look forward to those! Safe harvest bud!

My brother in law watched it and said his eyes started itching just watching it. lol

@@Blastfromthepastfarming652 i know

I went to High school in St. Ansgar. , Class of 1975

Class of '81.

It sre would help and save looking back all the time but it takes "precision " driving since there isn't any room for error

@@Blastfromthepastfarming652 and a mirror prevents "precision" driving?

It is a tight fit putting 3 rows in it and it isn't a floating cutting head so there is always a chance to push dirt if you happen to catch a a bigger root ball.

It is just optical illusion, the wagon wheels are doing the same

Look at the ground it's not dragging. It would have a pile of dirt f it was.

It's a tight fit with about 6 inches on each side. On another one of my videos you can see the beans were 54 inches tall so that was running at full capacity.

Richard Harms Central Iowa near Des Moines

I'm 30 miles west of Des Moines Iowa

This plant is soybeans

You can't be daydreaming, I only have 6 inches on each end

It is soybeans

My brother is selling his.

@@hturbo1007 they are good old combines no canvasses to deal with like the 76 combines especially with the scourclean

It doesn't have 20 rows crammed into it. I have a 1960 Deere 40 self propelled with a 10' grain head. Best grain sample ever!

My dad's was just like this and pulled it with a 560 , check out some of my other videos to see me doing it with my 560
