You Won't Believe How Original This Classic Tractor Is! John Deere Model 60 

We were still using a 60 as a regular tractor on the dairy farm until the early 90s. It’s a shame dad sold it.

Very nice. Brings back fond memories of when I was about 11 or 12 years old helping a neighbor hay and got to drive his john deere 60. What a thrill and what a tractor.

i use my 60 to brushhog 3 times a year..im 32 and my dad bought it when i was a kid.. love it

Grew up on a 1954 model 60. Great tractor. Dad replaced it with a 3020 in 1967.

Thank you for taking care of this one of a kind tractor

gotta love the sounds!

Thank you for posting

Wow sounds fantastic I love to here these run we use to have one

Very beautiful tractor

The oldest running tractor we have is our john deere 60 my grandpa and his brother told my great grandfather it's time for him to quit farming and just live the easy life. Well my grandpa owned all the equipment and land at the time so my great grandfather took some of his personal savings and bought the 60 some land and implements so he could keep doing field work. Now we just have a underbelly mower attached to it and use it sometimes to mow around the farm.

I remember so well starting our old spoked wheel B.....open petcocks.....turn to level to the small gas tank.....give 'er some choke....turn the flywheel by hand until it fired.....play with the choke to get running smooth....close petcocks....DON'T grab plug instead of petcock unless you are practicing for the electric chair.....play with throttle to smooth out.....switch lever to go to "power fuel"......away you go.

Nothing sounds like a "Popin Johny" .

The override is a pressure stop value on the ram end of the cylinder behind the should to stop the length of and implement into the ground for depth .

What A Find Today,I'm a John Deere Girl 😍 🚜 . I Subbed to,Your Channel 👍 Txs I Worked for John Deere,Des Moines Iowa 🚜 based at Branch of Alberta.

Im ready to see tractors in another 30 years.Theres no telling what there have . Refrigerators ? Still these will be the classics

An override was a mechanical stop on the cylinder in the corner of the front where the knob sticks out .

Old irons are better irons. This tractor would be welcome at a town parade or a hayride.

I'm surprised the tires are in good as shape as they are. Thought they would've dry rotted away....

Der john deer 1942 hat einen liegenden einzylinder benzinmotor oder doch schon einen dieselmotor? Sehr edel! Ohne vorderachse, simple lenkung. Weiß jeman warum sich diese lenkung nicht behauptet hat. Kippt der traktor leichter um?

If it's all original why is the plate painted over as well as the manifold painted?????

I learned to drive on a john deere model A

They're only original once, glad it was left alone.

That old tractor just my old tractor some tractor 60 John beer tractor

1122 hrs. seems kinda high for only 1 season.

👍

I have a J.I case 730 that has all original parts and paint

I am getting my Granmpa's 1953 JD 50.. Can anyone tell me what the original color of the seat was from the factory?

no fenders?

Western NC. Our equipment rust sitting in the dry. Coastal NC 10 times worse.

why is the serial number painted if its original???

Paint on the SN tag. It's not all original paint. Nice straight tin though.

Meh. They're made to be used at least once and a while. I don't believe in letting things sit. Also, not sure what he's saying about tractors rusting out down South, they seem to do fine to me. Lastly, my dad has that exact hydro cylinder, now I know where it came from. John Deere.
