Yeah, that little Genius can really turn the dirt over, nice and neat ! Like you say, designed to work perfectly behind an H , but that A handled it surprisingly well ! Started right up , like a farmall always does ! That step is a very useful addition !
Excellent video Gino :) also like step add on 1947 FARMALL A tractor also plow putting on test and doing job 👍 Boom with Red Power yes ! Also remember years ago my late Dad & Uncle they had 1950 Cockshutt COOP 40 gas tractor pulling McCormick International 10 seed drill , 1963 McCormick International B414 Loader tractor Desiel 40 with 2 row 171 McCormick International seed drill and both did 1500 acres but 1980's drop to 850 acres farm land to and 1990's 450 acres ! Said I seen 4 row planter in good condition and prices pick up ! So did in 1992 found one and brought home told my dad also uncle check in machinery shed big new one ! Funny did ask ho much coin $ and said no way till show receipt of sale ! Said did excellent on buy !
Nice little compressor that 💪 and asfor the A she pulled that plough with some in reserve 💪💪 engine exhaust note was music working well and not overworked 👌 great video showing of Red Power 💥💪👍
That farmall A has a lot of pull to it. I mean, you got loaded back tires wheel weights and that, and that says a lot about that farmall A and the horsepower out of that four cylinder engine, and the plow was pulling perfectly in that furrow and also I appreciate these videos about red power and people think that those farmall A tractor doesn't have that much horsepower it will surprise you on a farmall A
That little A pulls that pretty dang good . I like the step that will make it easier to get on .That's one of the nicer air pumps like that I have seen . Thanks for sharing !
That A did a great job!, it really got its test on the right side of the field where you were plowing at least 8” deep, you could hear that engine firing clean under that load! We used to have a Massey Harris Mustang and the 2 bottom plow was all it could handle and then some…lol
Just wanted to say looking to see you Saturday at the Mercer County Antique pPower Association plow days at the Alexander farm! And this year instead of being on a John Deere 1020 I will be on Cecil my 1951 Farmall C All shined up and ready to go!
Hey Farmall fanatic. Jeff here from South Georgia. I like your channel and the nice collection of antique red power. im currently restoring my Pa's 53' super A. was inspiring to see you pulling the 2 bottom with your A! I have an old 2 disc new ground plow that I hope to try out when I get the Super A restoration finished. I did a 3.250 sleeve and piston kit. should be about a C133 now. It was the most readily available engine kit. The later model blocks were suited for a 3.125 bore so I should be ok. She runs great! Thanks for the videos I'll be watching.....
I think the later blocks would accept the 3 1/8" bore sleeves. I wonder if this one has been upped to being a 123 instead of a 113. Either way she seems to punch above her weight.
UPDATE: I have ordered the step from Shawn🎉 Thanks FF, been looking for a good step since getting my Super A June 2021💥 I'm going to have to get one of those steps for my Super A 💥💥 Bonus on the refreshment holder😎💪💪 Good luck with the VEVOR, Another YT tool guy just did a who are they last week, not a good history with public information he dug up😮
my good friend take the grill off the front and paint it white as that's a classic Farmall as treat it as such love the channel and keep'em coming my friend
Seems to be adjusted fairly shallow for 16" bottoms. Not a terrible thing, it is a bit easier on the tractor as long as you don't want the depth afforded by the bottom and it's still laying over nice. BTW Those shares are in really good shape, which bottoms are those? I have a Plowchief bottom but new shares haven't been availible since crescent forge closed up. I also can't find any Superchief bottoms or frogs either (just not a lot of farm equipment in general around my region) so upgrading is mostly out.
The step looks great on the A. You must have easy pulling soil, because the A sure handles it well. They normally pulled one 16" bottom so you're pulling twice as much plow. This soil here, it's too much to ask for the A. But the plus side to this clay soil is we don't have to grease the bottoms. With rusty bottoms, just plow 20' and you can see yourself on them. Once you get the wheels adjusted on the Super C, it will make a huge difference on the performance.
What happened to all that rust sure looks like they polished up pretty fast 👌😁 Sure liked that step I should make or buy some for my B's and Cubs like the looks of that step better than one's that hand from the brake rod. You will get alot of use out of the air compressor I picked up one very similar from Harbor Freight works great very useful
Hello looks great turns very good. But I think tractor is to light. If for some reason that plow was hung up it would flip the tractor faster than you can react. Just a thought have a good day.
I'm well below the axles... Light tractors flipping had to do with people pulling loads above the axle level ..and it would flip them quicker than you know what... I will have a swinging draw bar on it and at that point. I will be pulling from the anchor which is about dead center of the tractor you're not flipping that..
Man putting the a through its paces she sounds great I remember plowing my dad's 20 acres with my super c with a 2 bottom plow I believe it was a ih not sure what model it was. But it was really fun
I had my BN at a tractor show a few years back with one of those plows behind it. An older man asked why I had that behind it. The tractor couldn't actually plow with it. 😅
Heck yeah those old pieces of equipment were done right. Their survival depended on it. That and HARD work. Then bust your kids backside if they didn't mind or get their chores done. Imagine this generation back then. That's why I believe in those 6 volt systems. They were done right. Just have to understand them.
Are you sure that someone hasn't swapped that engine??? I had an A that was weaker than water. The super A would run circles around the A. Now have a 140 that I love
