I grew up in the hills of Tennessee. I left long ago and now it’s just mom. Just lost my brother and he was everything outdoors so these videos bring me such happiness. We grew up on a farm when growing tobacco was the crop to sell and the garden was for our food. We all hauled hay every summer. It was a great way to grow up. We’d all get up bright n early to either work something on our land or head to a neighbors if they needed some extra hands picking bushels of tomatoes all day. Or corn. Funny, I don’t remember feeling like it was work.
Derek, sorry to hear about the machines getting all beat up. I am glad that nothing happened to the most valuable piece of equipment on the whole farm....YOU! Be safe. Have fun.
What you want on those hills is the International 3588 2+2, the Anteater. It's basically your 1086 rear end and cab, but articulated and big 4x4 tires up front and a looooong nose! My dad went to a farm auction about 35 years ago when I was a kid and came home with the anteater. He was just trying to speed up the bidding to get to what he really wanted and then no one else bid on it. He still has it, and it still kind of runs. My favorite all-time tractor!
As I'm from the UK, normally a guy isn't up at this time but I'm glad to see a video from vg Lodge as its always good to see you brother always makes my day and brings back memories of my dad
Derek! A guy here that used to do this work, we mowed 1000s of miles of embankment next to highway here in Europe, you are doing the right thing! Make sure you keep your brakes unlocked, most of the time it will start spinning before it will tip, so only lock the rear end if you really need it! What will help more is to buy a 3 point mower, a disk is what we used. Always keep that mower on the high side en never lift it until on reasonable flat ground again! Hope I learned a guy something!
@@lgjohansson2467 I have much respect for Norway & Sweeden for their love of U.S. muscle & 50's classics. I too worship the '59 Cadillac. May they live on forever!!!!
I'd love to see you fix the hay conditioner just for the keeping it from being scraped. You can cut open one side and use a hydraulic clamp to press out the ripple. They do it all the time on truck frames.
Hey Derek. Tighten the transmission brake and when you press the clutch it’ll stop the movement and it’ll shift a helluva lot easier. You should be able to get it to where it’s not any trouble at all to shift it. People say the 86’s shift so hard because no one adjusts them. That’ll fix er up!
My Dad had an IH 1066 he used as a loader tractor. Moved a lot of round bales with that thing! Seeing this video and hearing the sound of that engine brought back a lot of good memories of my Dad.
Thanks for sharing your day with us. I grew up in Indiana around farms, uncle had a dairy farm, and I did a bit of square bale stacking in barns. You are teaching and sharing many things about the equipment and it makes me smile. (Sorry about the cutter)
I enjoy watching your videos on both channels. My dad is 68 years old now and ive never saw him happier than when he is operating one of his old internationals. He has two 706's one 806 and they still do all of the farm chores from cutting hay rolling hay planting corn, all of the tillage. He grows about 10 acres of corn every summer to feed cows in the winter, and picks it with a new idea 1 row corn picker. He just passed his 1948 C farmall down to me with full cultivators and a disc since i was getting into gardening. If it ant red keep it in the shed. Thats one of his favorite sayings , or grass is green, tractors are red! All of his farm trucks are square body chevys by the way. And he has a little hot rod 79 camaro. But thats enough rambling from me thanks for your videos. Justin from north west alabama!
I absolutely love this era of International Harvester tractors! My dad worked for IH in Hinsdale, IL. for close to 40 years as a field test engineer in the tillage department and always had his test implements behind a 1486 or something of the sort. I accompanied him on many field test trips on local farm land and sometimes got to transport them on the road from field to field with him following behind in the truck because I was too young (11 y/o) to legally drive a vehicle. Best tractors of their time (sorry JD lovers) and best looking too! Great memories!
When I was a kid we ran a 706 with loader and an 806, both had many many hours on them. I always liked those old IH tractors, they were work horses for sure!
love the tractor!!!! grew up on all red Derek......574, 400, 856, 986, 1586, 5250, 7150. My fave was the 856. we used a NH dual rake. Great set up. Every time I see one its heartwarming. Our 86 series had ac and radios. I Absorbed a lot of country and Classic rock driving them in my teens. Perhaps you could leave that(JD mower) one for now and get a 411 discbine if they aren't too expensive. I haven't priced them but we had 2 of them and they did the job all day long. Just replaced the knives occasionally and greased them. Hay and sileage were my favorite times of the year. As for the JD mower....Im not a JD person. We didnt have but 1 piece of equipment that was JD but im not a person who likes to throw things away either. I supposed its a matter of time and patience to just repair as you have time perhaps. Might take another guy to do it. We often left the big jobs like that to a pro. Perhaps there's a junk one that has a good arm but is rusted out. Course Farm equipment is such heavy metal it doesn't easily do so. PS in your case its a good thing you didn't have a TA, probably would've ripped the arm right off of it.
My Grandpa's biggest 1066, 826, 706, 560 German diesel, 444 gas. w/loader used for cleaning out barn and hog house / fixing fence/ picking apples/ plumbs/ i could go on....
Great video. That tractor is a GEM!!!!!!!!! My uncle has an old.1086 and.it.keeps on purring along. Those Tennessee hills and pastures are beautiful indeed.
Thats a blast from the past. This was the biggest tractor on my grandparents farm so of coarse my favorite and i always had to have a ride when i stayed there.Seeing the inside of that 86 took me back to my childhood riding with my grandpa. Used to sit on his right side up by the back window. Many hours were spent up there chatting with him while he farmed. Id love to have one of my own someday ,still my favorite tractor. Cant go wrong with red power. Great vid, sorry to see the damage but at least you didnt get hurt.
I agree. Lexan (polycarbonate) would be good. With CO2 LASER cutters being so affordable these days, it shouldn't be hard to find someone to cut it perfect. At least something to consider.
@dwahnaslowdown8887 He has a nice cutting table in the shop... Would that work if he found a sheet of the right material? Or is that only good for metal?
An old buck I did hay with had two 1086 Internationals that we did all the haying with the one and I say his favourite one was Terribly addictive To ether complete junk and Refused to run the nicer one . To each is their own When I saw this it instantly brought me back .thank you
I love my green tractors, but I will always have a soft spot for our 1981 IH 1086 been in the family since new! Hard to find them with a factory 3pt hitch. Wish ours had one!
It’s cathartic watching you cut hay with these machines. Takes me back to high school spent a lot of summers cutting hay with an open cab Landini and a New Holland Haybine.
The conditioner - I'd just keep running it. The kink isn't that bad and won't have much of an effect on the geometry. If I remember right the clamps for the pto shaft mounts have play in them, so you can back off the bolts and reposition the bearing to run in line with the shaft. My dad used to run his conditioner with a Super 55 which had 45 horsepower on a good day. He liked it because if you hooked a fencepost or ran a skunk or rock through it, it would stall the tractor. It saved quite a few repairs, but we only had one hill that was steep like yours and we only ever used it for grazing in the summer and toboganning in the winter :)
Man that's a beautiful 1086. We used to have one on the farm loved the look of them but yes not very good at loader work. They mainly excelled at pull work.
Great video, please keep up the rural living/country themed videos, especially if they contain awesome machines like that. My cousin ran a 1086 when I was kid...
We used to mow with a discbine hooked to an original 1066 in SW Michigan. Ran the wheels out and used weights to keep the vibration down. One season we rented a grass field with a hill like Dereck's. No matter how we kicked out rounds they would roll to the bottom on the slope
I really enjoy seeing you work your land. I wish I had the opportunity to learn how the different equipment is used. Thanks foe sharing. Please do more. Oh and a feller has been watching vice grip for about 5 or more years.
Maybe some suitcase weights on the front will help a feller with steering and traction on those hills. Safety first! Love that tractor and the farm content!
I was thinking a guy could put on skid plates for wheelie bars designed like steering skis on a snowmobile. Only much heavier duty. To keep that front end down! 😁 The guy who mentioned lexan to replace that window? If a guy keeps going in this direction? We'll be seeing a guy entering tractor pulling events! 🤣😂😂
Good morning from Cape Cod ⛵ it's always a pleasure to see what's going on there at the homestead Derek, sorry about the equipment damage but I guess these things are to be expected at times. Thanks for sharing and be safe brother ✌️🇺🇲
Derek, I enjoy seeing you continue to run older, good, equipment. Most folks just give up on it. I'm running 2 JD 318 mowers from the 1980"s. One as a weekly mower with side attachment for a 68" cut, and the other with a homemade tiller attachment. Not on your scale but I'm only into both them for less than $1000. Beautiful property by the way!!
It's amazing to watch my favorite automotive personality perform farm chores. All I need now is for Pete to start doing revivals at Just a few Acres farm!
Derek, like oil and water complacency and PTO’s just don’t mix. ALWAYS shut your machine off before you get down. When a PTO bites it happens quick. Stay safe. Australia.
I love seeing this old iron still being used. Tough luck on the window and the 1207. I think you will have to asses the damage once you can get a good look at it and decide from that point whether she is worth saving. My only experience with haying was on pretty flat fields so that looked like quite a challenge. Especially for the first time through. Thanks for taking us along.
That's a mighty fine sledding hill. Send it to little grip garage to fix I hear he got some welding skills it be a perfect practice project for the fella
Love your old 1086 Derick. I have 2 of its little brothers. A 77 and a 79 986. Both have over 12000 hrs. The 77 was my dad’s tractor and I bought the 79 used when I was 20 yrs old in 1986.
I sure enjoy watching this. Growing up on a farm in Iowa we did a lot of this. We had 2 small old H’s, 2 656s, and 1066. That was big for our 220 acres. I miss farming. Had to sell the farm when my grandfather died sadly. Thanks for the content!we had on old ford with a scoop, but were definitely an International family!❤
Love your 1086 Derek, she's a beaut. When I was just a young lad (way back in the 80s 😂) we had a poor old beat down 766 as our big tractor, all the leaks, pto not working etc etc, we loved it 😂😂
Those were great tractors, Definitely worth restoring! Get a radio, the AC & that display working and the hours will fly behind the wheel of the ole girl
Thanks for taking us back to mid-seventies haymaking. My grandfather decided not to get the optional cab on his International. Carting hay and snow removal wasn't much comfort in rural Newfoundland and Labrador.
Dude, trust me. Buy yourself some polybraid, a few reels, some Gallagher step in ring top posts, and 20 cows. Park the hay equipment and graze year round with rotational grazing. Put those boys to work ranchin.
Love me some old red iron! We had the shift linkages in the console and down inside the transmission completely rebuilt on our white stripe 1066, and now it shifts like a dream. They can be easy shifters if you have a good IH guy!
It paid for itself in content. Move on, upgrade. We all learn from you, with every decision you make, regardless of the outcome. You are procreating knowledge in an abundance of subjects, in an approachable way no matter the personal confidence level. Thank you VGG family.
Looks like quite the hills to cut!! Never had many hills to cut or bail when I was a kid and I’ve always been thankful for that!! Damage is ALWAYS part of farming, as you are well aware of I’m sure!!
I hay with a 1086 on some very steep hills in western NY. A 1/2 rack of weights up front and loaded rears makes it very stable. The 86 series is also my favorite tractor of all time and I'm so happy to see you get and refurb one!
It’s official. Everything this feller and his family record I’ll watch. “Mizzle” just go live all day, everyday. Thanks for the years of quality content Derek and fam!
I so love my you tube farmers. No matter who tractor brand. Farmall, International by far is my favorite. Thank you Derek and family for taking us along the farm. I don't think there is any piece of equipment you can't fix. I guess I would like to see it fix unless it is not beneficial for your farm. Then you should get the haybine that works for you. I know you can't be both places at once. I sure love your lodge as much as your Garage. Try not to stretch your self too thin. We won't to have you and family for a long time to come. George from Urbanna Va
Just some advice. Don’t get out of the tractor when the PTO is running, and you are by yourself. Never open an inspection cover when the machine is running, open the cover then run the machine and observe it from a distance I have seen what is left when a PTO is done with a man.
I've recently started watching this and his VGG channel and I love his videos but my only complaint is being a bit lax on safety sometimes. I hope he heeds your advice.
@@89sirmonk I realize that and every incident I saw as an EMT in Rural Oregon, involved people raised around this equipment, including a 16 yo who had his arms pulled off clearing the swather because even though he disengaged the PTO but didn't turn off tractor and PTO re-engaged, or tge 80 plus YO farmer servicing his combine to have a Hydraulic hose break while he was under the header greasing, found later deceased. Stuff can happen no matter how long you have been around this stuff so it pays to be a little cautious.
Brings back good memories I grew up on a dairy farm in western ny and we had similar IH but was a white stripe 1066 turbo wat a beast that was, me and the wife love watching all of ur stuff
I’m pretty sure I had a die cast toy version of the old International tractor exactly like that one. I did a quick google search and I should not have hit mine with a baseball bat into the bean field behind our house. 😂
I adore my green tractors, but our 1981 IH 1086, which has been in the family since new, will always hold a special place in my heart! With a factory 3 point hitch, they are hard to find. I wish ours had one!
Love these tractors, I drove 1960s and 70s IH tractors, 986 and 866, as a teen in my summer job. Working fields, having, building fence. AC with a cab is mandatory, they get hot inside.😊😊😊😊😊
Saw that beautiful 1086 in a VGG video and couldn’t wait to see it featured. Thanks! If nothing electrical is working in the cab you might check the cab solenoid. It’s located behind the cover in between the brake and clutch pedals. Thanks for all your work Derek!
Wow out 1086 was my dad's favorite tractor until it blew the hydraulic pump last year. Have been looking for another ever since. What a beautiful outfit! One of the smoothest engines made for the time.
Thank y'all for sharing. Brought back a lot of great memories from the relatives farm from when I was a youngin. Y'all need to do a few videos of working on the 1086. Y'all have a blessed day.
Love this video! Not that much into tractors but the country and the activity is enjoyable. The lodge is a great addition to the channel for adding additional content other than cars. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Beautiful old tractor! Hard to beat an old new holland haybine! There’s millions of them around for a reason. We had an old Heston PT7 on grandads farm. Used it behind a 620 John Deere. Worked good only used it a few years before grandad passed and we quit farming. Before that we used a sickle bar mower on a ford jubilee, and a new holland crimper behind a Farmall BN or a John Deere B. Miss those days for sure!
Grandpa had a 1086. i was bringing in the bales at age 8. I miss that tractor and the man. Getting a little dusty in here. must be the hay. More 1086 please! (Its my favorite too)

My dad went to a farm auction about 35 years ago when I was a kid and came home with the anteater.

Thank you for taking us along!!
It's amazing to watch my favorite automotive personality perform farm chores. All I need now is for Pete to start doing revivals at Just a few Acres farm!
Exactly! Actually Pete has done, if not revivals, some great restoration work on his IH fleet, most recently on an IH Farmall 856.
Derek, like oil and water complacency and PTO’s just don’t mix. ALWAYS shut your machine off before you get down. When a PTO bites it happens quick. Stay safe. Australia.
Get another one but fix that one later. Thanks for what you do!
I love seeing this old iron still being used. Tough luck on the window and the 1207. I think you will have to asses the damage once you can get a good look at it and decide from that point whether she is worth saving. My only experience with haying was on pretty flat fields so that looked like quite a challenge. Especially for the first time through. Thanks for taking us along.
Gotta keep them ol IH alive love IH tractors thanks for the video man keep up the good work God bless
Love the 1086! And these work videos. Nothing beats putting in some sweat maintaining your own slice of America.
Nice tractor! Love the 86 series! my favorite tractor is a 1586! Many many hours spent in that tractor!

My grampa had a bunch of IH when i was younger on his farm. Loved them.
That's a mighty fine sledding hill. Send it to little grip garage to fix I hear he got some welding skills it be a perfect practice project for the fella
You are very blessed with a good life, that you Sir has worked very hard for! Love your videos very much!
Love your old 1086 Derick. I have 2 of its little brothers. A 77 and a 79 986. Both have over 12000 hrs. The 77 was my dad’s tractor and I bought the 79 used when I was 20 yrs old in 1986.
😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😘😘😘😘😘😘💕💕💕💕
I sure enjoy watching this. Growing up on a farm in Iowa we did a lot of this. We had 2 small old H’s, 2 656s, and 1066. That was big for our 220 acres. I miss farming. Had to sell the farm when my grandfather died sadly. Thanks for the content!we had on old ford with a scoop, but were definitely an International family!❤
Yeppers, welcome to farming. The pros an cons of raising it,or buying it. Thanks for sharing 🙏.

Went out on my motorcycle after watching this video today and there it was a 1086 at about the 1st farm I passed. Great videos Derrick.
Love your 1086 Derek, she's a beaut.
When I was just a young lad (way back in the 80s 😂) we had a poor old beat down 766 as our big tractor, all the leaks, pto not working etc etc, we loved it 😂😂
I grew up on a farm and man tinted windows just makes everything look so much better! Good looking tractor!
Those were great tractors, Definitely worth restoring!
Get a radio, the AC & that display working and the hours will fly behind the wheel of the ole girl
AC and radio so when the mower eats a rock you can't hear anything and just keep on driving.
Thanks for taking us back to mid-seventies haymaking. My grandfather decided not to get the optional cab on his International. Carting hay and snow removal wasn't much comfort in rural Newfoundland and Labrador.
Dude, trust me. Buy yourself some polybraid, a few reels, some Gallagher step in ring top posts, and 20 cows. Park the hay equipment and graze year round with rotational grazing. Put those boys to work ranchin.
😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘✌✌✌✌✌✌👌👌👌👌👍👍😉😉
Love me some old red iron!
We had the shift linkages in the console and down inside the transmission completely rebuilt on our white stripe 1066, and now it shifts like a dream. They can be easy shifters if you have a good IH guy!
It paid for itself in content.
Move on, upgrade.
We all learn from you, with every decision you make, regardless of the outcome. You are procreating knowledge in an abundance of subjects, in an approachable way no matter the personal confidence level. Thank you VGG family.

Looks like quite the hills to cut!! Never had many hills to cut or bail when I was a kid and I’ve always been thankful for that!! Damage is ALWAYS part of farming, as you are well aware of I’m sure!!
that little bend in the tongue is nothing to worry about, it will keep your dual out of the uncut hay better. hopefully the knife stills runs good.
I hay with a 1086 on some very steep hills in western NY. A 1/2 rack of weights up front and loaded rears makes it very stable. The 86 series is also my favorite tractor of all time and I'm so happy to see you get and refurb one!
I respect your optimism. Sir, we need more of that in the world.
Your family farm sharing is totally the best
😜😜😜😜😜😜❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Get the 1206 fixed. You spent time with your son fixing it so it has memories. It's worth getting that arm fixed. 👍
My grandfather's last new tractor. Iconic to me.
😜😜😜😜😜😜😜😜😜😜😜😜😜😜❤❤❤❤
ТВОЙ ДЕДОК ВИДАТЬ БЫЛ ЗАЯДЛЫМ ТРАКТОРИСТОМ ДА
It’s official. Everything this feller and his family record I’ll watch. “Mizzle” just go live all day, everyday. Thanks for the years of quality content Derek and fam!
Probably time for an upgrade for the JD. Love that old International!! 👍👍
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘
I like your personal work and presentations much more than the commercial stuff you get involved with.
That ole Binder is Beautiful 💪❤️🤍🖤🇺🇲
😜😜😜😜😜😜😜😜😜😜😜😜😜😜😜😜
Okay you just went up a notch with this video that puts you at Notch one
And why did we not get an international refurb video?! Lol
Love the 1086!
Pretty sure he covers the refurb on an upcoming episode of Roadworthy Rescues due to be shown this fall.
What he said.
I so love my you tube farmers. No matter who tractor brand. Farmall, International by far is my favorite.
Thank you Derek and family for taking us along the farm.
I don't think there is any piece of equipment you can't fix.
I guess I would like to see it fix unless it is not beneficial for your farm. Then you should get the haybine that works for you.
I know you can't be both places at once. I sure love your lodge as much as your Garage.
Try not to stretch your self too thin. We won't to have you and family for a long time to come.

Just some advice. Don’t get out of the tractor when the PTO is running, and you are by yourself. Never open an inspection cover when the machine is running, open the cover then run the machine and observe it from a distance I have seen what is left when a PTO is done with a man.
I've recently started watching this and his VGG channel and I love his videos but my only complaint is being a bit lax on safety sometimes. I hope he heeds your advice.
Why do you do when you run a grain auger?
Agree. PTOs have done major injuries or deaths on farms.
He grew up farming. He's well aware of the dangers.
@@89sirmonk I realize that and every incident I saw as an EMT in Rural Oregon, involved people raised around this equipment, including a 16 yo who had his arms pulled off clearing the swather because even though he disengaged the PTO but didn't turn off tractor and PTO re-engaged, or tge 80 plus YO farmer servicing his combine to have a Hydraulic hose break while he was under the header greasing, found later deceased. Stuff can happen no matter how long you have been around this stuff so it pays to be a little cautious.
My grandfather had a 1086 when i was a kid. Great tractor, Derek! Brings back a lot of really good memories.
Who didn't see all of those problems coming. Rocks, rocks, rocks. No rock guard. = $$$$$. Sure was a nice day to be outdoors. 👍👍👍
I agree with Derek as the 1086 is one of my favorite tractors too.
That is a beautiful tractor!
Brings back good memories I grew up on a dairy farm in western ny and we had similar IH but was a white stripe 1066 turbo wat a beast that was, me and the wife love watching all of ur stuff
I’m pretty sure I had a die cast toy version of the old International tractor exactly like that one. I did a quick google search and I should not have hit mine with a baseball bat into the bean field behind our house. 😂
I adore my green tractors, but our 1981 IH 1086, which has been in the family since new, will always hold a special place in my heart! With a factory 3 point hitch, they are hard to find. I wish ours had one!
Love these tractors, I drove 1960s and 70s IH tractors, 986 and 866, as a teen in my summer job. Working fields, having, building fence. AC with a cab is mandatory, they get hot inside.😊😊😊😊😊
Saw that beautiful 1086 in a VGG video and couldn’t wait to see it featured. Thanks! If nothing electrical is working in the cab you might check the cab solenoid. It’s located behind the cover in between the brake and clutch pedals. Thanks for all your work Derek!
Wow out 1086 was my dad's favorite tractor until it blew the hydraulic pump last year. Have been looking for another ever since. What a beautiful outfit! One of the smoothest engines made for the time.
Thank y'all for sharing. Brought back a lot of great memories from the relatives farm from when I was a youngin. Y'all need to do a few videos of working on the 1086. Y'all have a blessed day.
Love this video! Not that much into tractors but the country and the activity is enjoyable. The lodge is a great addition to the channel for adding additional content other than cars.
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Try fix it up if possible, then trade it up once repaired. great video as usual from 🇬🇧❤❤ love your farming videos
I love that era of IH tractors! Rode in many, and drove one as a kid while visiting family on the farm in Powers Lake, ND.
Beautiful old tractor! Hard to beat an old new holland haybine! There’s millions of them around for a reason. We had an old Heston PT7 on grandads farm. Used it behind a 620 John Deere. Worked good only used it a few years before grandad passed and we quit farming. Before that we used a sickle bar mower on a ford jubilee, and a new holland crimper behind a Farmall BN or a John Deere B. Miss those days for sure!
As much as I LOVE the car videos, your farm videos are a new world to me and are totally fascinating to me! Thank you for making these! God Bless!
Grandpa had a 1086. i was bringing in the bales at age 8. I miss that tractor and the man. Getting a little dusty in here. must be the hay. More 1086 please! (Its my favorite too)
dude that tractor is so RAD! the perfect rig. super cool!
