grandpa is eighty nine in two days. he is watching this with me right now and he said thank you for finding pieces of the past. they ran ih in Illinois by Rockford until the eighties took them out. god bless you Jason and your family for the new year.
Very cool. Glad he is getting to watch. It is his generation that was making the big decisions in 1972 weather today but a big 2wd or 4wd for the first. The one tractor that should have also been in this video was an IH 4166 but unfortunately I have not found one to film yet. The good news for IH is next for New Tractors for 1973 I have a 4366 filmed.
My dad and I looked at buying a 6030 with a 6 bottom plow, 8 row planter and cultivator, 21 foot disk, and 5 shank subsoiler for $12,000 back in 1988 but when the seller said it burned 8 gallons of fuel per hour, he didn't purchase it. I was a teenager and sure did enjoy the test drive that Saturday. We had a 3020, 4020, and 4040 though and they were great workhorses. Thanks for the trek down memory lane!
Very cool piece of farm history. It’s interesting because the 6030 was not that highly regarded until the past 10 or 15 years. Had your dad bought that tractor and still had it today he would’ve made a good investment and made his money back threefold.
8 gallon an hour is not too bad for a 6030 , I had a JD 4520 pulling a 22ft JD 230 disc with cone blades that would burn 10 gal an hour and cover 10 acres per hour.
My favorite tractor is my uncles 1974 alischalmers 200 diesel with cab . He used it for tillage and corn planting. He and my grandfather bought it with a 5 bottom plow and 6 row planter and disk for $38000 . He since has retired from farming and still uses it for small tasks. I remember disking with it at 8 years old it has the power director transmission so once he had it in gear I could shift it from high to low range along with neutral and set the park break to get out if I needed to take a leak . He had a wd45 that pulled a 18 foot grain drill for wheat it had a hand clutch I was driving it at 6 while picking stones . We pulled an old truck hood behind it to put the stones on . He used a gleaner f combine with 20 foot head as well. Those were very good times that I'll never forget. Great video keep up the good work!
@@bigtractorpower the funny thing is that I'm 28 years old those days were the early to mid 2000s . Now the family still farms just with newer equipment and way more acres . I remember when we bought our first 200 thousand dollar tractor grandpa who was in his 90s was blown away.
the 1972 farmfest was held at Vernon Center MN I was able to attend it and saw so many new tractors there and I picked up literature on many which I still have.My favorite was introduced in 1973 the John Deere 4430 all of us that were in the 4H and FFA tractor driving contest at the 73 MN state fair got to drive one since it was used for the contest and now I own one for planting and spraying
The first "big" tractor I learned to do tillage with was a 1975 Allis-Chalmers 7040. We had a disc and a field cultivator we'd pull behind it. I'll never forget the sweet sound of the turbocharger spooling up to full power when I'd drop the disc down into the next row after making a turn. It still raises up the hair on the back of my neck when I hear one today. Great video Jason! Keep them coming!
I am a big fan of the AC 7000 series. I filmed and featured a 7040 a few years ago applying NH3. I really want to find a 7080 to film. Did you AC tillage implements or other brands?
@@bigtractorpower we used an Allis-Chalmers model (I believe) 2800 field cultivator but we had a Kewanee disc. We also had an A/C 6 bottom plow but it was rarely used.
I love those old Alli’s-Chalmers 175-200 tractors. All the neighbors farmed with them. We had a 4020JD, 1100MF, and 1130 MF as our bigger horsepower tractors back then. Oh how things have changed. We still have the 1100, it’s a wee lil guy these days!!
I have so much love and respect for farmers using the older, paid for, reliable, simple to fix farm equipment. Big farmers have always been the foe of a small farmer. Now when their fancy electronic, add blue tractors stop working the small farmers with older equipment will rise!
It is all a balance. The tractors in this video were the machines that made farms bigger 50 years ago. Now they are small machines in comparison. Running my 4786 and 8850 in a 100 acre field on 30ft implements this fall I found after a few hours those 4wds did not feel big enough pass after pass compared to a 9620RX that was cruising along across the drive way. I really like and respect the farms that run the classic iron. The new machines are good too. It’s just a matter of where and what the farms are.
awesome video I was a young boy back then. I always liked the International 1066. I bought a hydro 1066 a few years ago just for parades and I use it to bale hay and other odd jobs around the farm. LOVE IT!!!!
hard to beat a 6030, but I always loved the look of those 190, 200 Allis tractors. That Moline made the work look effortless. lots of nice machines here
Awesome collection of machines,I'd have to say the Versatile is my favorite,I just love the sound they make and they look so nice. Look forward to the next video.
I liked all of these tractors but my favorite part of the video was watching that young fella bouncing around on that old Allis Chalmers . So nice to see some youngies that like using antiques and working outdoors and don't waste all their time playing video games . I always wanted to drive one of those Case crab steer tractors . thanks for the video ; you give me my dream trips to the midwest USA without having to leave my home up here in Nova Scotia .
My father purchased our first John Deere diesel tractor when the 20 series was introduced, before that he preferred Ford's over the 10 series Deere's, and I can't say that I blamed him. After the success of the 20 series, it was off to the races for John Deere, and they've never looked back. "Nothing Runs Like A Deere" 🦌👍🇺🇸
Our main tractor in the 70's and 80's was an Oliver 2255 Cat 3150 tractor. Used 5 gals per hour pulling a moldboard plow, a silage chopper, or digger for spring tillage. Awesome tractor for that era.
@@bigtractorpower We ran a New Holland 892 Forage Chopper with dual pivot wheels on the PTO side. A very memorable piece of equipment because you could hear it a mile away.
The 6030 in the 7520 are stand out Tractors. I sure would like to do more videos featuring 1960s tractors they are just a little bit harder to find working in the field I do get to see them at plow days
Agree but what do you think about the front weights, style he had on the 6030 (and quite handy) or the original one's? I know it's not handy but i like the old style. Thanks for sharing that unique, needful footage BTP!
My dad and I farm some as a hobby run a 6030 Deere and 1466 black stripe for tillage and plant with a 4020 we love driving them as well as these guys do great video thanks for putting in the time to grab them
Love those noisy Versatile's ! A farmer in my neighborhood bought 1 after a bad experience with a J.D. 7520. After a long battle with them, he finally got compensation and swore off them for good. I think his son still operates that big 900 beast.
Have you ever seen SouthSaskFarmer channel? They have a bunch of old John Deere iron as well as an 835 and an 895 Versatile that they have totally rebuilt and made look really nice!
Wow!what a video it's a keeper 1972 was a great year for me graduating love that 6030 at the start and of course the 9600 cause we had 8600 great video
It was definitely a big year for tractor introductions that have all become modern day classics. I plan to do a 1973 video next year and they were a bunch of big releases then as well. But the 6030 is by far one of the most legendary tractors from the 1970s.
I love that 200 Allis Chalmers them 301 cubic inch Allis might of only Been rated 93 hp but I guarantee it was pushing way over 100 horses... Them 301 engines was tough...I put many acres of corn in with a 200 and 7040 I Love them Orange Tractors...keep up with your good Vidoes
Two great AC tractors. I always post the specs listed in the original sales brochures. It always interest me the amount of extra horsepower of these tractors concern out above what they were advertised at.
You’ve missed one important fact about the 6030 it was the only tractor offered by John Deere with two motor sizes the 141 hp or the 178 hp engine. The smaller hp version was supposed to take the place of the 5020. We’ve got one in our collection. It’s got the bigger engine with roll-bar and canopy
Most of these tractors in good shape probably will sell today for as much and more as when new. You won't say that about anything built today in 50 years.
The most interesting thing is almost everyone of these Tractors sales today for what it’s sold new or just a little less. The only ones that I really depreciated are the big four-wheel-drive‘s.
Jason, as always a fantastic video for us tractor nuts. I grew up on a farm in Wildorado Texas and remember seeing these beautiful machines around when they were new...I was 4 years old. My favorite on the video was the 7520. My all time favorite is still the 4620, first tractor I ever rode in. I get goose bumps every time I see and hear one! Thank for all the great videos and the memories they bring back!
The 4620 is a cool tractor. I have a 4620 open station video here on BTP. A farm I visit plants corn with an open station 4620 and a 4630 with a dab with both on 12 row 7000 planters.
That’s very cool the 1972 4020 is an end of an era machine in the last year production of their highly collectible. Next year I will do new for 1973 which will include the release of the 4430.
@@bigtractorpower Im serious about my lnvitation to Sweden and a big event with old tractors cars and some aeroplanes...in may 2022...ill get back to that later
Oliver 2255 is definitely my favorite. However with the exception of the 7520, I probably worked on all of those models at one time or another when I worked for the old AGCO dealer. Lots of those classic horses still out there earning their keep! Great video!!!
The first tractor ever got to ride in was a 2470 and it is still one of my favorites. Steiger release dates for the 70s were 1969, 1970, 1974, 1976, 1977 and 1979.
I hope you can expand on this! It's a great! Even if you have to group some years together depending on what all you can get filmed. Definately be keeping an eye out for more of this and sharing!
I have a 1470 Case and a 4620 JD. When I was little we had a lot of Case equipment. Even Case combines. I don't miss our 2 2670 though. We had a lot of problems with them.
The first tractor I ever got to ride in was a 2470 and the very first farm machine I ever rode in was a Case 1060 combine. I would like to be able to film both a 1200 and a 1470.
What's your email address and I can see if I can send you pictures of my 1470. I'll look for a running 1200 in my area. That might be a little hard. The engines in those tractors didn't have a good reputation. BTW. The first combine I rode in was a 1660.
We had a 2470 for several years and it was the last Case tractor we bought. It was comfortable to drive all day and had decent power but had many engine problems, some of which Case paid for because of flaws in the liner to block interface that would allow coolant into the oil. We got rid of it and heard soon after the 3 speed power shift went out. That was something to be careful with when it was cold because it was VERY harsh shifting until warmed up and if you pushed the clutch without shifting to low first it would slam you into the steering wheel. It was easy starting in the cold, we cleared a lot of snow with it during the bad winters of the late 70's. It would run the same speed in reverse as forward (13 mph max) which was great for using a 3 pt mounted blade.
I always enjoy seeing the "Beasts of the Past" working in the fields. I know those tractor prices were "Big Money" back then but, seems like "Nickels & Dimes" when compared to the tractor prices of today. Thanks for sharing. Take care.
Great value for your dollar when the tractor lasts over 50 years With all today’s technology I wonder how many of the new tractors will last that long?
My favorite tractors is the Ford 5000, 7000, 8700 and 9700 but to be honest I’m a Ford tractor man anyway I love all the tractors shown on this video I really enjoy watching your videos
Wow! What a great video! That Case had a big price compared to the rest of them. It would be interesting to know, when you do a video on the old ones, if any are actually being used for real field work. Thanks!!
Good question. Every tractor in this video is tractor being used on a farm year and and year out to raise crops. The 6030 is the primary tractor on its farm.
The Case's larger price tag might have to do with the fact it's a rigid frame, two steerable axles were probably higher priced than straight axles. Also the fact of all the different steering configurations that are possible.
grandpa is eighty nine in two days. he is watching this with me right now and he said thank you for finding pieces of the past. they ran ih in Illinois by Rockford until the eighties took them out. god bless you Jason and your family for the new year.

The 900 has a cool look and sound. They were a big step in horse power in their day.
Those 1970s John Deere articulated four wheel drive tractors had issues. There were several 8430s in our neighborhood and they all had problems.
50 years later John Deere tractors worth multiples their purchase price. Many still working. Amazing tractors. Grew up farming with 4010 and 4020.

If an Allis Chalmers didn't overachieve, it wasn't an Allis Chalmers
Great video Jason!...JD 6030!!!
Got to love that Old Iron. I'm figuring most of those old tractors actually running would still bring more than half of what they sold for new!!
Thank you for watching. Your right. The 7520 in this video was sold this summer. It is in very nice shape. It sold for $23,000. Not too bad at age 49.

Oliver and Moline are my pick. Especially the later years. Looking forward to the G1000 Vista toy coming later this year.
😁👍👍

50 years and now John Deere is launching their autonomous tractor range ... Farming has sure come a long way 😀👍
It definitely has. It’s amazing how farming has advanced.
You’ve missed one important fact about the 6030 it was the only tractor offered by John Deere with two motor sizes the 141 hp or the 178 hp engine. The smaller hp version was supposed to take the place of the 5020. We’ve got one in our collection. It’s got the bigger engine with roll-bar and canopy
I LOVE THE PRICE TAG ON THESE TRACTORS 🚜‼️🇺🇸
JUST THINK WHAT THEY COST TODAY ‼️🇺🇸🇺🇸
Most of these tractors in good shape probably will sell today for as much and more as when new.
You won't say that about anything built today in 50 years.
The most interesting thing is almost everyone of these Tractors sales today for what it’s sold new or just a little less. The only ones that I really depreciated are the big four-wheel-drive‘s.
6030 John Deere is my favorite
My grandpa’s first tractor is a 1972 ford 4000 and it’s still running today
Jason, as always a fantastic video for us tractor nuts. I grew up on a farm in Wildorado Texas and remember seeing these beautiful machines around when they were new...I was 4 years old. My favorite on the video was the 7520. My all time favorite is still the 4620, first tractor I ever rode in. I get goose bumps every time I see and hear one! Thank for all the great videos and the memories they bring back!
The 4620 is a cool tractor. I have a 4620 open station video here on BTP. A farm I visit plants corn with an open station 4620 and a 4630 with a dab with both on 12 row 7000 planters.

I put many hours on the JD 5020 and 6030. Lot's of power and hardly any breakdowns. Tractors were some much simpler to operate back then.
Yes they were and built to last a life time.
Great vídeo Jason.
Thank you for watching it was a lot of fun getting all these tractors filmed.
Personally, I liked them all !
Because I grew around most of them lol!
Me too it’s hard to believe that they have gotten to 50 years but they were built well and have lasted and stood out in the history books.
Power tractors amazing 💪👍😁
Thank you for watching.
Best channel on TH-cam,, & I love everything shown here ✌️
Thank you very much I appreciate it.
th-cam.com/video/p_CLcjXytFQ/w-d-xo.html
awesome.
Thank you for watching.
we still use our 1972 4020 every day
That’s very cool the 1972 4020 is an end of an era machine in the last year production of their highly collectible. Next year I will do new for 1973 which will include the release of the 4430.
@@bigtractorpower yes, mine has the power shift with factor cab (heat and air etc.,) too
Hello again...from Sweden
Hi. Thank you for watching.
@@bigtractorpower Im serious about my lnvitation to Sweden and a big event with old tractors cars and some aeroplanes...in may 2022...ill get back to that later
Oliver 2255 is definitely my favorite. However with the exception of the 7520, I probably worked on all of those models at one time or another when I worked for the old AGCO dealer. Lots of those classic horses still out there earning their keep! Great video!!!
Yes oh yes the 2255. Could anything honestly top that v8 Cat engine
I liked seeing the Ford, 2wd and the Case 4wd.
Good tractors.
Love the Ford 9600
😁👍
Ford 9000 then the JD 6030 AND 7520 nice video
Will your video are a time machine love it keep them coming 👍😎👍❤️
Great video BTP 🚜👍
Thank you for watching I am looking forward to putting the 1973 video together next year
Like the Allis Cham
And the John deere
👍👍
I missed the Steiger... although they were later in the 70s.
Case 2470, 2670 have always been on my favorite list
The first tractor ever got to ride in was a 2470 and it is still one of my favorites. Steiger release dates for the 70s were 1969, 1970, 1974, 1976, 1977 and 1979.
Great job putting this together!! Hope sherry Schaefer is following this!!
Thank you for watching. It’s always fun highlighting these historical tractors at work.
I hope you can expand on this! It's a great! Even if you have to group some years together depending on what all you can get filmed. Definately be keeping an eye out for more of this and sharing!
I can’t believe these tractors are hitting 50 yrs old doesn’t seem like it. Great video 👍🏾
It is hard to think of them being that old 1972 was a big year for stand out tractors.
My cousin had a 9600 like three one in the video. That thing was massive.
Very cool. The 9600 is a cool tractor.
I have a 1470 Case and a 4620 JD. When I was little we had a lot of Case equipment. Even Case combines. I don't miss our 2 2670 though. We had a lot of problems with them.
The first tractor I ever got to ride in was a 2470 and the very first farm machine I ever rode in was a Case 1060 combine. I would like to be able to film both a 1200 and a 1470.
My 1470 has a engine issue right now. I put new tires and a pto on it and the engine got a knock in it. I think it's got a bad piston.
What's your email address and I can see if I can send you pictures of my 1470. I'll look for a running 1200 in my area. That might be a little hard. The engines in those tractors didn't have a good reputation. BTW. The first combine I rode in was a 1660.
We had a 2470 for several years and it was the last Case tractor we bought. It was comfortable to drive all day and had decent power but had many engine problems, some of which Case paid for because of flaws in the liner to block interface that would allow coolant into the oil. We got rid of it and heard soon after the 3 speed power shift went out. That was something to be careful with when it was cold because it was VERY harsh shifting until warmed up and if you pushed the clutch without shifting to low first it would slam you into the steering wheel. It was easy starting in the cold, we cleared a lot of snow with it during the bad winters of the late 70's. It would run the same speed in reverse as forward (13 mph max) which was great for using a 3 pt mounted blade.
I always enjoy seeing the "Beasts of the Past" working in the fields. I know those tractor prices were "Big Money" back then but, seems like "Nickels & Dimes" when compared to the tractor prices of today. Thanks for sharing. Take care.
Great value for your dollar when the tractor lasts over 50 years
With all today’s technology I wonder how many of the new tractors will last that long?
"that first went to work a half century ago," kinda of puts things in perspective. I went to work 50 years ago too. 😯
😁👍👍
I like the 200 Allis. Looked like it was pretty stout. The 9600 was doing a good job. They were all nice tractors.
The 200 packs in allot of horse power.
Love that 7520! The Ford 9600 Too. That was a clean 2255 and great to see.
All three are stand outs. It was great to get them filmed.
My favorite tractors is the Ford 5000, 7000, 8700 and 9700 but to be honest I’m a Ford tractor man anyway I love all the tractors shown on this video I really enjoy watching your videos
Ford made some great tractors. 👍👍
Wow! What a great video! That Case had a big price compared to the rest of them. It would be interesting to know, when you do a video on the old ones, if any are actually being used for real field work. Thanks!!
Good question. Every tractor in this video is tractor being used on a farm year and and year out to raise crops. The 6030 is the primary tractor on its farm.
@@bigtractorpower Wow that's neat!
The Case's larger price tag might have to do with the fact it's a rigid frame, two steerable axles were probably higher priced than straight axles. Also the fact of all the different steering configurations that are possible.

I bought a JD 4620 with 8 speed Powershift transmission if not the best it should be incleded in a top 5 of all tractors
Loved the 6030 it reminded me alot of 1969 5020 that was the 6030s little brother
The 5020 is a great tractor I got to do some corn stalks last year with one I really liked it.
