One of the best combines ever built !! 1st time i saw these working i was in the field with my Dad offsetting behind the custom cutters using those 92s !! Best memories ever !!!👍👍👍👍👍👨🌾👨🌾
I remember every nook and cranny of this machine. My Dad had a fleet of custom combines and we would operate almost year round. I was only 12 running them. My sister who was 8 at the start was my best mechanic. She could crawl into the small places. We could have an engine pulled in and out in a half hour and be running. That passed the operators off when they thought they were going to have the day off. You have to combine when it is time to go. Time is money.
A guy in our community was a hobby farmer and found a Super 92 diesel! It was a slick old machine and he used it for wheat harvest only. It's the only one I've ever seen. These guys are moving right along with this old iron. Nice to see it.
Don't know how they did on corn (we picked all ours in the ear) but year after year the Super 92 did our oats, wheat, soybeans, and milo, they were great small grain machines! Thank you for the video, brings back tons of great memories!
Had a super 92 really good trouble free combine. That flat head 6 cylinder engine down underneath seemed like it would get hot, but never gave any trouble.
Many hours in 60s on Supper 92 on farm in Ada, MN. Dad on combine, brother Fred driving truck. I would be on swather in next field. Dad customized seat by raising it about 15 inches to get his head out of some of the dust. Had to bend over to reach doing well but it worked.
I would love to find one of these with all of the heads. I love the old combines. No computers, no GPS, just operator skills. It's a shame that they don't make anything like this anymore. I would grow corn, sorghum and soybeans on my place, but I just can't justify the cost of a modern combine, nor do I have the acreage to make it worth it to me.
I know a chap who collects old combines here in England and he own a very rare French built 1962 Massey Ferguson 892 combine. It is the European version of the Super 92. It was sold as a stop gap while MF Scottish factory was fitted out for the new 400 500 series from the old school 780 special. The French built combines had am 8 in front of the original number. Scottish built combines had 7 in front. By a account's the French built Massey combines were much better than Scottish
Hello ! ...i am french and i no understand you when you speak because you speak too speedy for me ...but i want tell that your vidéo is really super. ...i remember my young time ....thank you very much !...
I see comments on here about different motors in these machines. I know in Europe they were equipped with the Perkins diesel. never saw any of those here but some were equipped with a Chrysler Slant six, but most all were equipped with the flat head industrial six. I think the slant six was because Chrysler quit building the flat head version of industrial engines while the combine was still in production. The Perkins diesel would have been a big improvement due to the heat issue and related fire hazard, being under the machine. Don't know why they weren't avillable here in the states. These machines were excellent in small grain, corn was a bit out of the design allowances. Massey had a big market share until the 80s when the farm economy went to crap thanks to Carter and his minions. They made good machinery and were competitive with any.
That's the way it was smokem if you got em most people that smoked were more responsible than 90% of the dumb -sses these days can't even put a camp fire out jees Louise!
How come we had them medium trucks in Europe throughout the 50 iies, 60ies and 70ies and now no more????? Very modern combines for that time and very fast. We had Clayson (later New Holland) and Haas combines in that time. But the straw was never chopped, we bale our straw.
first real off the home farm job. custom combining crew for Lueking Farms near Oxford Nebraska. The 92 would road faster, load on a truck and easier to repair than compareable IH or JD
We had used one of those combines till the 1980's. No cab sucks.. Dust from the header and grain tank. Ours died when the engine overheated because of that stupid flapper system in the radiator cover driven by plastic gears. A round circulating radiator screen would have solved it! Other than that it is one good combine!
I sure identify with the dust comment. We farmed with a Cockshutt 112 after we parked the threshing machine. Then progressed to a 137 and finally a 428. None of them had a cab. For some reason there seemed to be a tail wind no matter what the direction of travel and dust from the grain tank was merciless. We also had a John Deere 65 pull type for a while. The tail wind issue was worse because the operator had to be looking back a lot which added header dust to chopper dust.
Maybe someone can help me out. In the late 50's and thru 1961, one of my brothers went with a custom cutter who had 9 machines. I have seen pictures of those machines and they look a lot like this one. Since a custom cutter would have fairly new machines, I am not sure what models came out in what years, But I know they were Massey's. I doubt if they were Massey Harris's, but just not sure. I had thoiught that the Super 92 was a Massey Harris, but I am probably wrong on that.

The Chrysler industrial 6's sounded great in them old M-H combines
That combine is eating that wheat up!!! Let's see many more videos of you farming. This is great !!!!!!

when life was simple love it great video reminds me when i was 7 yr old and rode with grandpa back in 67 Tisdale Saskatchewan
Good machines. We used them up till 1979. Had 2 and a 92
they were the king of the combines back in the day most every custom operators run them ease of loading and transporting.
Had a super 92 really good trouble free combine. That flat head 6 cylinder engine down underneath seemed like it would get hot, but never gave any trouble.

Wow! Sure brings back memories for me
Awesome Super 92!
I like the early one that has the Massey-Harris decal under the operators platform.
Almost all of them were badged Massey Ferguson.
Memories thanks

Je conduisais la même en bretagne .
La Super 92 était une magnifique moissonneuse-batteuse , trés performante .
Hell yes that's how it was done perfection
It that a cigarette sticking out of the mouth of the operator in an open cab implement in a wheat field??? Geez Louise
That's the way it was smokem if you got em most people that smoked were more responsible than 90% of the dumb -sses these days can't even put a camp fire out jees Louise!
I didnt mention that ours had a Chrysler Slant 6 cylinder our 410 had a 292 GM I-6
That's a 1964 ford f 600 . I have a 1965 ford f 600 and 1967 ford f 500 . Good old trucks that still run and work.

And they sound good too , 👍
Super-duper 92!
LOL! Now that was funny!

Our old Super 92 was almost 3 times as fast in road gear as our 410 Massey
