Short video of a Ford 9000 tractor pulling a 5 bottom model 152 moldboard plow. This was at a plowing day event in Alvordton Ohio on Saturday July 28, 2018.
Love the old Ford's. My dad had a 9600 Ford. My parents and both sets of my grandparents farmed in Archbold and West Unity , OH area. Wonder who's tractor that is?
You got the wife and child with you there that the most beautiful part of the video I think God saw that and said “It is good “ Keep that old iron running!
Looks like the furrows are pretty shallow. Is this typical of how these farms are plowed with moldboard plows, or was this depth setting for the demo of the the day?
The Ford(White/Cockshutt) built plows did not carry the front coulter on the drawbar of the plow which allow for a lot better adjustment and cutting of thefront furrow.Used a 151 4-18s for years.
Not to be that guy, but why is he only pulling a 5 bottom? JD 4520 in lesser shape pulls a 6 16's plough every year next door to me, and that is lower rated hp wise as well....
mowers are Jacobson/gilsen and skidsteers transferred to LS when Ford left it but CNH made it watered down and boomer run shibuara engines and contracts in Pakistan for tractors Ford definitely was better .
We used to have a 9000 n 9600 turned up to 170 hp. We pull 5/18 John Deere plows. Sure does bring back memories from a long time ago.
Thx for the post, Mike. Great to see these historic machines in the light of day and excercising.
Great looking Ford tractor. He did a good job restoring it.
Great video! I love old Ford tractors.
Loved seeing the folks on the fender. I spent many happy hours clinging to the fender of the 8N when I was kid with my Dad running it.
I always liked the 8000. & 9000 Fords
If you had a radio back then ,that was what you call ....luxury.
Got to love all the classics power of the late 60’s
Stunning video of the Old Big blue machines, thanks for making the video
That was some excellent video my friend. Thanks for sharing
Glad to see some blue equipment reminds me of growing up on my grandfathers farm.
Love these fords! (just the tractors lol) Even then they weren't that common. Rarely them anymore :(
Mike it is like you got a time machine! Great drone shots and that tractor looks like it just came from the dealer. Thank you.
Thank you Mike. Nice looking set up.
Another nice video from you!! First tractor I ever run and drove. Was Fords!! It was a Ford 4000!!
Thank you 😊!!!
Nice video Mike! Used to work at a Ford tractor dealership, good tractors!
I know this tractor 🚜 very powerful I drove a 9000 in Marion south C in 1973.

Imagine going back in time and telling the farmer who just bought this new and told them that in 2021 tractors basically drive themselves
Ford built the best looking tractor ever made
Nice video Mike. Thanks.
Nice looking tractor! That selling price is a surprise to me.
Nice looking tractor.
What model Fords did you grow up with? Im a ford fanatic myself
You got the wife and child with you there that the most beautiful part of the video I think God saw that and said “It is good “ Keep that old iron running!
Nice ! !
Good tractors we have a ford 8600 and its a beast
Looks like the furrows are pretty shallow. Is this typical of how these farms are plowed with moldboard plows, or was this depth setting for the demo of the the day?
Rightsideofthegrass it's just an "American" style plow we usually dont plow more than 6 inches unless we are using a deep ripper.
Now that’s a tractor. Do they farm with it?
that's what dad says do you happen to be a dairy farmer to
She's a beauty.
I love Ford Blue, but let's think about safety for a moment...3 people on board with no ROPS or cab?
Why are they plowing so shallow?
Fort super 1 traktor. Olveys faori ideal masina
Not even ploughing six inches deep, wtf ?????
Just scratching the surface with the plow.
Never knew that Ford built ploughs ?
Is there in the USA more equipment build by Ford?
The plough was built by WHITE (1:47)
@@favorit926vario5 Thanks. But was this sold as an Ford plough ,or are the decals home-made by the farmer ?
distributed by Ford, probably Ford had contract with white now a part of agco to build plows then it branded and marketed them as Ford
Case also outsourced their plows. Case, Ford, white all based on the high quality Oliver plow
The Ford(White/Cockshutt) built plows did not carry the front coulter on the drawbar of the plow which allow for a lot better adjustment and cutting of thefront furrow.Used a 151 4-18s for years.

The 9000 could very well do the same with 18s and more than likely on a lot less fuel.
Compared to John Deere 4320 from same time period. Cheaper, bigger, and better fuel efficiency.
Imagine that. Built by White. Ford, y’all definitely did good with tractors but you wish you could be silver (and clover green too)
mowers are Jacobson/gilsen and skidsteers transferred to LS when Ford left it but CNH made it watered down and boomer run shibuara engines and contracts in Pakistan for tractors Ford definitely was better .
Nice looking beast! I like the Fords not New Holland.
Ford new Holland is good the new ones are junk there built by CNH but still better than Deere
actually fiat though sadly just ignore it and act like its a Ford that's what I do
Ford to Sperry new Holland to for new Holland to new Holland diehard Ford guys just call it new Holland
I bleed blue and collect them grew up on John Deere farm I'm 16 and I have 2 mowers and a 9n all ready Blue or bust
