Thats a good looking old Deere... Me and the boy went out and fired our tractors up today, they all popped right off. They have been sitting since Oct in the shed.. Thanks for the history and walk around Will...Looking forward to your 40 project....
Thanks Brent. I was going to give a little preview of the 40 issues but I talked about the 50 too much and figured to save that for another day. The 40 repairs should be good for a few videos. I'm figuring out this editing stuff one video at a time.
I'm glad you brought that up Mr Brent, forgot to mention that. Dad always wanted a 40 crawler over the years, look fwd to it as well, hello again as well sir!
@@Pennies_on_the_dollar There use to be oodles of little JD crawlers around here. The loggers used them for skidding wood after the days of horses....I'll see you over at Ed's later....lol
@@farawayfarm2520 , every time I see the guy, he tells me to come over. He really loves the 50. there was absolutely nothing wrong with it when he came and picked it up. It was a bit of a sad day to watch it turn out of the farm drive for the last time.
Man yeah what a great back story on the 50. Love the phrase about the price, what's a tractor really worth if ya want it😉 I love the wife fronts on those 2cyl deeres!! Had many of them (narrow fronts) over the years! Mostly B's, a couple of A's, and 3 -60's . Looking fwd to seeing this one out working soon!! Nothing wrong with the resto job, looks perfect I think!! Really appreciate the history, and story behind it!! Thank you Mr Will for bringing us along!! 😁👍
Great history 👍 The old gal looks pretty good, especially for her age👍😁 Muffler?? I've never been around the early numbers, but played with a few letters, never saw a muffler on any of them. It was either a short elbow out the side, or a straight pipe stack out the hood..
Excellent story! I remember you told me you were from Bessemer, nice to know you took the 50 with you. Mines a year newer with the square wide front, glad you made this video. Thanks I’ll be looking for future 50 videos
Dang, I was going to ask you if you had put any videos up lately.. I've received no notification.. seems YT chose to unring the bell for me 😡 But hey, I clicked it again 👍
Love the sound of that 50 and the back story makes it better. I grew up with an A and B and spent many hours raking hay with a old Oliver bar rake on rubber. Sure could have used your wide front on those side hills!
Same here. I raked a lot of hay for my Dad and Grandpa on a 1950 narrow front B. My Grandparents sold the farm and moved to a smaller place after Grandpa retired and the B went with the farm. The new owners sold the B a few years later and we didn't know where it went. My cousin found it by accident about 5 years ago and bought it. My uncle and cousin have quite the collection of equipment. I might have to do an equipment tour video there this summer. Thanks for watching.
farmer fix! I fixed the shifter on my B with a horseshoe nail! Nothing wrong with a good JD running New Holland equipment ! I run a 620 on a 717 New Holland, great chopper, run a NH haybine with the 620! Run New Idea manure spreader with a JD B!
Think I know where that came from 😉 Do you have the loader with trip bucket anymore? The B and 14T are still in use at the farm....now being used by 4th generation in the same fields.. Each have their "fits" at times. 😊
Hey Ryan. They are nice tractors. Put up a video of yours sometime. I should have some pics of mine working before it got paint. I'll have to post them some day.
Cool story. North West of Lafayette there was a 70 wide that stayed on the same farm for 4 farmers. 50 years I'm aware of. It my still be there because the widow of the last 2 farmers still lives there, and I haven't heard of a auction. Thanks Will.
Thanks for watching and the comment Bryce. I know of a few tractors that are still on their original farm or at least with the same family in the area where I grew up.
Nice looking tractor, and good story behind it. someday I'd like to find a 620. I used to work for a guy that had a 50, 620, and a 630. I liked all those old Deere's but I really liked that 620.

Good looking tractor 🚜 very nice! Watching from Philippines 🇵🇭 sending my support from #JohnLeoTV
Thank you very much for watching all the way from the Philippines. I appreciate it.
My 50 served me well. It went to a good home to a friend of mine about 8 miles from here.
You can visit it if you want. 🤣

Your welcome Nelson. I had a few more things I intended to say but we can work the rest of the story in later.
@@farawayfarm2520 Man yeah, look fed to it Mr Will!!
Pretty sharp 50
Thanks for watching. I know every little thing that's wrong with it but it is a pretty nice tractor.
Good job on the video.
Thanks. First video with new Gopro.
Great history 👍

I've seen a lot of them set up like that.

Mines a year newer with the square wide front, glad you made this video. Thanks
I’ll be looking for future 50 videos
I'm looking forward to some decent weather when we can start making a few real farming type videos.
@@farawayfarm2520 soon you’ll be out working it
Dang, I was going to ask you if you had put any videos up lately.. I've received no notification.. seems YT chose to unring the bell for me 😡
But hey, I clicked it again 👍
Hey Ed. I think YT doesn't like you 🤷♂️🤣
@@farawayfarm2520 I've kinda gotten that feeling too🤔
Hello Mr Will 😁
Hello Nelson. Apparently the video finally went up. It still shows it processing on this end. I need some internet that works. Thanks for watching
@@farawayfarm2520 Yes sir, watching it now!! It's buffering some but nothing bad, love this 50

Nice story. That 50 looks pretty sharp.
I'm glad you like it. Thanks for watching and commenting.
Good story!
Good idea with Cody being second owner.
Thanks Jon. I appreciate you watching and commenting.
farmer fix! I fixed the shifter on my B with a horseshoe nail! Nothing wrong with a good JD running New Holland equipment ! I run a 620 on a 717 New Holland, great chopper, run a NH haybine with the 620! Run New Idea manure spreader with a JD B!
I run a New Holland haybine and round baler. They have been good to me. Hopefully we have decent rain this year and I can make some good having video.
Think I know where that came from 😉
Do you have the loader with trip bucket anymore?
The B and 14T are still in use at the farm....now being used by 4th generation in the same fields.. Each have their "fits" at times. 😊
The loader is at my parents yet. I definitely remember the 14t having a few fits. I'm glad you watched the video. Thanks for the comment.
Awesome tractor!! Warning for Cody never hit starter lever until motor comes to complete stop. Until brake the nose cone off.
Thanks for watching. I really appreciate it when someone comments on my older videos. It's nice to know they are still getting watched.
Remember running your 14t on that, the smoothest horizontal 2 cylinder we agreed.
It ran really smooth with the baler.
Very nice 50 and great story to go along with it.
Thank you and thanks for watching and commenting.
Cool I just bought a 50 can’t wait to start on the rebuilt of mine

@@farawayfarm2520 I will as soon as I get it home

Nice JD 50
Thank you. If this snow ever melts we will get to making a little video of it doing some work. Thanks for watching and commenting

I spent quite a few hours on my Grandpa's 620. My uncle still has it. Good tractor. Thanks for watching.
AWESOME Will!
Thanks Ryan. Glad you liked it.
Very nice looking 50 Will. Mine was a 1953 with the add on after market power steering. mine can be seen in some of my earlier videos.
Thank you Gary. I'm glad you like it. I'll have to go check some of your early videos to get a look at it.
Good looking tractor. Love the story on how you got it.
Thanks for watching and the comments. 👍
