THE Oldest Operating Kinze Grain Cart

The year 2022 marks the 50th anniversary of Kinze producing two-wheel grain carts. After building a prototype cart in 1971, Jon Kinzenbaw manufactured the first production run of eight, 400-bushel grain carts and quickly sold them all. Whatever happened to these carts? Any chance that one of them might still be around? We really wanted to know the answers to these questions, which gave birth to the Oldest Running Cart Contest we conducted from November 15 to December 31, 2021. In this contest, not only were we looking for the oldest operating grain cart, but we also wanted all our customers to brag a bit about the trusted grain carts they had been using. While many fine vintage Kinze grain carts were submitted, there were some definite surprises along the way. Here’s the story . . . www.kinze.com/...

My son and I toured the factory in June, our next cart will be blue and we are proud to own a Kinze planter!

You won’t regret it. It’s the one piece of equipment that you won’t have to work on. Grease it and let her rip :)

We bought an 800 Kinze back in 82 which I’m still using today. I finally wore the bottom out last year which I thought impossible but that didn’t stop me we installed a new bottom and It’s good to go again. I can’t even begin to fathom how much grain that cart has handled it has been the most reliable piece of machinery I have ever purchased and I see no need for a new one it will last my lifetime and more!

I use my 1000 bu Kinze cart w/scale to load out of the bin and when the empty semi comes back from the ethonol plant, it can be back on the road in about 6-7 minutes.

So did you trade these owners with a new unit?

@mikebougher3731 2 года назад

The way it sounded they didn't want to get rid of them.

If I ever farm it's a guarantee my planter will be blue and if I need one my cart will be blue too! Tractors I have no brand preference as long as it's Deere, Cat, or Cummins powered!

Nice to see the L2 Gleaner and 7045 AC Tractor in the promotional photos. Kinze outlasted Allis Chalmers. Kinze has always made heavy built agricultural equipment, made to last. Impressive.

@RJ1999x 2 года назад

I wouldn't say outlasted seeing Allis Chalmers started in 1901, and their tractors are far older then anything Kinze made and are still going

@@RJ1999x I’m a huge Allis Chalmers fan, and wish they would have survived the 1980’s as Allis Chalmers. I agree AC was around longer and built great equipment. My point was who would have thought when the promotional videos and photos were shot, that Kinze would be around and AC would not. Also not happy that AGCO stopped the Allis Chalmers Orange Paint.

Any chance you’ll be looking for the oldest rear fold planter. We’ve got two.

@Silverfish7216 2 года назад

I wish we had the money for a grain cart, do they make em small enough for a JD 4420?

@thecanfieldfamilyfarmextra8211 2 года назад

We once owned a progressive 16 row planter with KINZE units on it.

Years ago we were working in North English Iowa, we stopped in to see the gift shop. Before we knew it we were treated to a factory/museum tour and were treated like rock stars!
