my 1948 B John Deere still has a manure loader. took it off years ago. We had a New Idea 30 bushel wooden manure spreader. It was great. We used the model A JD to pull the manure spreader.. This vid brought me back. thanks. :-) :-) :-)
Awesome, love seeing the old equipment getting used. My grandparents had a 50 that was the main work horse until my they picked up a 4020. You got a new subscriber.
Wednesday May 20, Dad has the 50 painted like a JD 520 working on 5-20-2020. The old 45 loaders with that small 40" bucket doesn't look like it's moving much manure but boy that bucket load is heavy! My father in law farmed 200 plus acres with a JD 3020 and I struggled getting work done on 70 acres with a 4020 plus an off farm job. Dad has taken good care of his equipment!
AKWayne S The story that I’ve been told, grandpa bought it used in 1960 but my uncle wanted the newest model so he painted it to look like one! No one minded the new paint cause from the road it looked like a new tractor!
My favorite video so far, your Dad on the tractor is of course the highlight, your kids enjoying that beautiful swing set and playing outside it fantastic, but you getting stung, takes the cake. Lol 🐝
Tractor and loader works great! This old iron just keeps going and going we had a new idea trip bucket on our Farmall m 1939 had the huge oil filter can 🙂
I really enjoyed your video. I would prefer not to have the music in the background. I enjoy actually hearing the engines run. I have watched my dad load a lot of manure with a 2 cylinder John Deere, and done it myself. Between my grandpa, my dad, and me, we had 4 B's, 2 A's, a 60, a 630, and a 730. We also used some newer Case and Massey Ferguson tractors from the 1960's, 1970's and 1980's. I can almost smell the manure! Sorry about the bee. Been there, done that!
Hey , just stumbled across your video. Love the tractors, I would have guessed that 50 was a 520 . Beautiful farm also. What state are you folks? I'm watching from eastern Kansas. Take care of that bee sting, thanks for the video
