I love these stories! I have the upmost respect for dairy farmers of the past especially. They worked their asses off, they were innovative, strong, and yet kind and understanding to those around them. Congratulations to this man, he deserves some rest, and relaxation.
I just came up on this video by accident. I saw the guy by the tractor and thought he sure looks like my uncle Gerald. And it is. My dad, brother and I helped him on the farm in Zumbrota. My brother helped him on the Elsworth farm for a number of years. Just like he said you work all your life and do not know what to do when retired. My mom, Gerald's sister, says the same thing. Thanks for the video. Brought back many memories!!
Excellent video my late Dad , his late brother my uncle had home farm from 1957 to 1997 sold it originally there parents , used 1963 McCormick International B414 Loader tractor Desiel motor bought new for $3.500 , bought new 1968 International 624 A Desiel motor tractor no loader for a $5.000 , also had on farm plus 3 rent farms a 1950 Cockshutt 40 with Buta 6 cylinder motor gas one , in 1985 bought 3 owner at International dealership a 1968 McCormick International 105C combine gas motor with cab plus grain to , 1987 on local paper a farm auction sale came bought used 1978 International 724 B loader Desiel fuel motor tractor for $6.800 Canada dollars! 1972 to 1990's Farm in Ontario Canada prices went up and nice buy new tractor or combines and machinery too! In 1992 to 1995 my late Dad also uncle said need rebuilt motor on International tractor, also combine motor too !

Help them retired afterwards!
My father bought a brand new 756 in 1968 it was a diesel, damn good tractor ran a 2 row Fox corn Harvester did all our heavy work then we went to a 966 we kept the 756, really miss that tractor enjoyed the video very entertaining!
Its really cool to see another 756 gas a good freind of mine has one he grew up with we had quite the go round finding a new motor for it ened up have custom pistons made after years of the wrong overhaul kit put in got a 715 combine motor back in the day my love for gas tractors started one fall grinding ear corn pulling wagons with his 756 gas and 666 gas both have amazing stories along with a cherry low hour 5088 and a mint condition high hour 5250 case ih
Love these videos just one thing i would like is to show a bit more of the tractor maybe start them and let us hear them run whenever its possible. Im fascinated by these big petrol tractors as we don't have them here in Ireland. what horse power is that and what kind of a fuel tank is on a gas tractor.
We only have a large garden each year 😅 we have a ‘39 Farmall M, a ‘56 Farmall 100 and a ‘81 IH 274 Diesel. Love these tractors! Thanks for asking 👍 My Dad farmed a little in the ‘60’s & ‘70’s. Take care! 🙂
well i move and set mobile homes for 30 years plus and my dad bought a old international loadstar box truck best truck i ever own for hauling they truned on a dime
I would love the find a dairy farm in WI I've been looking for three years but there nothing more than 10 acre farms so if you know of one let me know I have the cow's and the equipment already

How cool is that,!!
Great video.
This man is awesome, 60 cows one man operation in early 70s.
Very impressive
Thank you for a very interesting and enjoyable video. Wonderful man Gerald.
Great video. That farmer is a very likeable guy.
756 IH is one of my most favorite tractors...so awesome driving one.

Love your videos.especially the old timers and how they made it work… keep it up 👍

Love the story. Thanks so much very very interesting
Jerry Pieper ............ Legend !!
That brought back memories. They don’t make em like that anymore. I don’t think.
My Dad farmed with a 656 and 966! Both awesome tractors!
Great video., looking forward for the next one
The grain embargo caused a terrible drop in price combined with terrible high interest rates were devastating to farmers
Would of been great to hear everything he was saying.
Love your videos, your conversations bring back memories
It is good to hear the TRUTH on this tractor's performance and what it could do in the field

Great videos! Keep them coming! Would love to sit around and whittle wood with that old man!
Love this video. I've run a few of these old dogs too.

Nice video
Great interview y'all! Own 3 IH's myself! From Sophia, N.C.
Do you farm in Sophia or just own tractors. If so, what do you raise?
We only have a large garden each year 😅 we have a ‘39 Farmall M, a ‘56 Farmall 100 and a ‘81 IH 274 Diesel. Love these tractors! Thanks for asking 👍 My Dad farmed a little in the ‘60’s & ‘70’s. Take care! 🙂
Never seen a 756 gas in my area! We have a 756 German with an M&W and 12,000hr later still untouched engine that makes 110hp
“Yup”
I've got a gas 806 thats in pretty good shape. Its a heavier tractor than you would think. Red iron weighs more i guess lol.
well i move and set mobile homes for 30 years plus and my dad bought a old international loadstar box truck best truck i ever own for hauling they truned on a dime
I have a 756 also mine has duel remote and hydrolic seat. But mine is a diesel
That’s my grandpa!!
Thanks from europa. The Netherlands
We farmed with an 806 gas, so looks like that same engine.
Nice original 756 Gasser ..
I would love the find a dairy farm in WI I've been looking for three years but there nothing more than 10 acre farms so if you know of one let me know I have the cow's and the equipment already
We had a 1456 and 966.
I'd rather run my 706 gas right now than the 1086. $2.66 a gallon burning 5 gallon an hour vs 1086 burning 5 gallon an hour at $3.65 per gallon
Love the story but the 756 was better with the German motor
Where is his farm now. Where did he come from. Why do these farmers not go with beef cows later?
Not worth watching to much talking just boreing
Why would you even bother taking the time to make that comment?
I find this very much worth watching . Keep them coming Mr. Kelly.
My dad and I had a 756 gas and our neighbor had a 756 diesel with the hydraulic seat and the tilt wheel both excellent machines .
