Wow, I can remember unhooking the flatbed wagon and backing the 60 up to the front of the wagon and hooking on to the bed, and raising the bed with maybe an A Frame mounted of the back of the tractor. Big job for my 8 yr. old big brother and I, and unload the ear corn onto the elevator just like this one...
If you don't crowd the conveyor, you'll have less corn on the ground. This is how we did things, 2 cylinders for the win. Great video, brings back lots of memories. Cheers :)
Ah yes, I remember as a kid sitting in the top of the corn crib, turning the elevator spout when the crib got full, to get as much corn in as we could. We didn't use any hearing protection back then. I guess that's why have really bad tinnitus.🤔 Great video! Thanks for the memories!👍
@@AnglesideFarm , sure makes me want mine back Steve. That was a really nice little tractor and was in great shape. The only thing about that tractor was that the rear tires were a bit chewed up from the chains.
Just found your channel and very impressed with preserving old John Deere equipment to show how it used to be used. Excellent videos. I've searched around and can't find where you are located or contact info. You said somewhere you want a "G". My brother has a darn nice one, '48? Mid Mi. Hasn't been started for about 5 yrs. Needs new rims for the 15.5. Tires are great. He also has 2 running 95 combines in excellent shape. Need a way to contact as I'd like to see it in your collection.
Sure reminds me of our farm in the late 60’s Dean, did you say your videos are from a tractor club you are part of once? If so I sure wish I was closer....
We had the tractor club over the one day when harvesting the oats. We belong to the Northern Illinois Twin Cylinder Club. The tractors and equipment we are using are from our own collection.
Stores ear corn, until run thru a hammermill to grind up corn & cob to feed livestock. Provides good air circulation, but allows rats & other vermin to enter slats to feast.
