Thank you Sir for your Vids!!! I am a subscriber of yours and watch your vids regularly! Great job and your over all knowledge of older farm equipment is impressive! You must devote a lot of time to this old stuff... and you got to be several years my junior...I'm an old 67 y/o that really enjoys vids with people who know the history of farming back in my day! Thanks Again!
Thank you for spending some time showing the heritage tractors. I heard them mentioned, but you were the only You Tuber that spent any time showing them! I was hoping someone eventually would. Thank you for doing so! Hearing about the history of them is interesting for sure. I have a 55 WD45 my grandpa bought new....wide front, Allis Allis loader, and cultivator. I still have it all, it has never left the farm! It was the main work horse until 73 when my dad bought a new Allis 200. I enjoyed all of your show videos!
Thanks for sharing this show, that John Deere chopper from knaups was a dealership from the mid 60s till the early eighties . Now the home of BALLWEG TURF AND EQUIPMENT STILL A DEERE DEALER.
That made a quick plowing job on the demo field !!! Looked like that prairie soil made the tractors grunt a bit by the smoke plumes. Nice walk-by on the remaining machinery.
Young man in the triangle of tractor you showed yellow tractor row crop front end. Did you notice the cleated tires on the front? The red combine with 2 roe corn head , big tires.(corn smasher). It needed the shields the yellow combine had. Thanks for showing some John Deere!!!!
Thanks for the video greatly appreciated for the time you take from your time off. You taught me something about those weights the double handle one , I didn't even realize what they were . Are 2150 has ten on the front also the 2255 has them too , down here in the old equipment building I found 12 more on a weight pallet lots of slab and stack weight. Thanks for that info never to old to learn something. From turkey creek farms be safe n thankful
@@Oliver66FarmBoy I've never seen them at any farm sales , around here wonder what there worth. We have white ones but we don't move them around much . I bet my grandpa bought them . Thanks again
@@Oliver66FarmBoy I'm sure they are, and I really appreciate you for your efforts. I like the longer videos. It gives me more quality time to learn more things.
I grew up running Versatile 145s one had a 3 point mounted chisel plow and the other pulled a disc and cultapacker. One had the factory Cummins V8 and other one was a re-power with a 6-71 Detroit. Theyre still sitting there today lol
Wow, sure doesn't take long to plow up a piece of ground when you have that many plows . Watching this kind of makes me want to get a plow to play around a little bit. Nice job of video taking Ethan
Ethan, thanks for the tour, show's almost a ghost town on Sunday! Interesting about the Renner farm display. They do the smaller version of power show in the off years, that Rantoul don't. I notice the dealer sticker on their tractors is now different than last time. They were one of the last single Deere store, dealerships out there. The new dealer logo, don't mention Deere. Has the Deere connection been removed? Also, we haven't seen Tom SR around lately? They live 10 miles away, but rarely get over that way lately. I did display one of our early tractors at their show last year, but likely won't do that again. The followers of his show are mainly only interested in those 80s monster rigs that drag race across the field with monster plows! No place for an Oil Pull! I was there 2 days and no one even stopped by to visit or even tell me to go to Hell or anything else! Total waste of my time. Also liked the tour of the early tractors, most of those there are from our local show at Pinckneyville ILL. I have an S Oil Pull in my collection. The flywheel weigh 1200 lbs, I've had to take it off once, quite the job. Also , I've often wondered what happens to the show fields the next year, without the show? Does the club still put out a crop or what? I hadn't realized that the airport still is an operating airport. Does it just do small private air service?
You did a fantastic job of videoing the show. By the way you need a 1900 or 1950 Oliver to add to your group. I’ve got a 1900 and love it. Just saying. 💪
It looked like some of the plow tractors were really moving. That begs a question. If you can travel 4 mph with a 5 bottom, is it better to travel 3.5 mph with a 6 bottom? Are acres covered by speed or width of plow better?
Golf cart = mobility scooter for dirt :) Yea I hate them too. Maybe they need to crack down on golf carts and SxS. Like you need to have a handicapped tag on your truck or license to drive one for free and others pay to bring one.
You were walking by some John Deere Tractors and you said those are the guys I usually come down with. If that is correct, I'd like to be a fly on the wall when you guys give each other shit.

Nice job!!!
That’s how you Knock-out a field in a hurry!!! Great video coverage of the show!
Made 20 acres disappear in a hurry.
You made it in the back page of Iowa Farmer Today newspaper today from Rantoul
Neat
Stack the bales cut side down to help dry out. Many years baling custom jobs. Good luck!
Thanks

It doesn’t help that ground is so screwed up from years of being an air base.

You have a gold pile worth of iron.

Although it took me all day long to watch the video, due to interruptions, it was a great video. Thanks for sharing your time with us.
Long videos are a chore.
@@Oliver66FarmBoy I'm sure they are, and I really appreciate you for your efforts. I like the longer videos. It gives me more quality time to learn more things.

My friend Dale Hall at the 23:33 mark with his Farmall M and Detroit conversion. He has several rare or odd tractors. He's a good guy.
Well, it looks like you had a good time time to go back and work on the farm thank Ethan
Thank you

I saw something today that I didn't know existed. An Oliver 1465, manufactured by Fiat. I took a few pictures if you are interested in seeing them
Really nice coverage of the show.
Thanks.
Nice exhibition
A lot of history right there
Yep

It’s farmed like normal to straighten the ground back out from the mess the show makes.
Guess it must be time to head home.

My wife’s uncle had one of those Yard Man mowers !
It’s a neat little contraption
👍👍

It’s a tractor show. Don’t over think it.
Maybe I'll get a kidney and down there one of these years.

You have to pay to bring one on the grounds to begin with.
Massey 750 combines used that style Pred cleaner but tube diameter could be different

Kubota front axle on the cub

Glad I’m not the only one.
What's the secret about this guy lol
