FULLY RESTORED OLIVER 1655 4x4 tractor mowing 2nd cut hay

- Опубликовано: 7 сен 2024
- It's the 1655's turn to mow hay. This tractor is such a smooth runner, those large front wheels just roll over bumps and dips, it's nothing less than a pleasure to drive it. It's also a good match to the Gehl 2360 horsepower wise, so away we go! There was some water and mud in the edge of one of the fields, so I turned on the front axle, just to be safe. I stop for a crop report and walk into my corn right next to the hay see how that is progressing. I'm even getting to where I can fly the drone and drive a tractor at the same time. Chewing bubble gum and walking at the same time are next on my list!

As always, Thanks for watching!
Beautiful tractor!
Thank you!
Those tires are bad ass❤… Great looking tractor 😊😊😊
Thanks. I wish they still made those tires.
Absolutely beautiful tractor, what a find! Great to see it out working.
Thanks! I was going to add some pictures of it from before I restored it, but I put my homework off too late and needed to get this video done.
We always mowed around the outside of the field the direction of travel and came back and got the second round the opposite way. Interesting how different farmers do things.
That tractor is just a sweet heart! Sounds as nice as it looks!
Thank you, I really enjoy using it.
Sweet rig I hope we can see the before pictures some other time. Your multi tasking abilities are second to none-flying the drone and mowing hay at the same time is impressive-Ima haft ta see video proof of walking and chewing gum though. Keep feeding America! 🇺🇸
Well, now I know if anyone reads the description. 😂
I'll have to do an in depth video on this tractor. I've got quite a few pictures from the restoration.
I really like how so many of your fields are tree lined. Very pretty.
Thanks! I used to grow tofu soybeans that were sent to Japan. They really liked our tree lined fields because they all but eliminate the chance of contamination from a neighboring field. They also suck a lot of water and nutrients out of the soil near them, so they have their downside as well.
64, grew up on a dairy farm in my teenage years and was a heavy equipment operator in my career. I will buy that tractor if i ever win the lottery. 😊 I remember riding the school bus in the late 60s and a dairy farm up on a hill had a yellow one and green one ... at the time i didn't know tractors but knew that those 2 tractors had big front tires and were bad looking. What a lucky farm to have owned 2 of these at the same time way back then.
It's definitely on of favorites to use.
Sweet tractor! Good looking hay and corn.
Thanks 👍
Chris, that's good you're getting some hey ready. Looks like the corn is doing pretty decent. Thanks Michael
It's on track to be the best corn I've ever grown.
Enjoyed the video and the drone work. Keep it up.
Thanks Charlie 👍
Growing up a neighbor who ran a dairy farm would ask for help, he had Oliver’s my favorite the 1655, a 1755 and his big horse a 1850. I absolutely loved that 1655 it was just the right size to pull forage boxes, cut hay and bale and it was so simple to drive.
They a great all around tractor! Thanks!
That 1655 is one fine looking machine!
Thanks!
That 1655 4 wheeler looks really good.
Thanks!
That tractor is so pretty it deserves a roll in the hay😄
😂😂😂 you have won the comment section for today!
Wheel spacing is just right for mowing hay keeping you off the windrow
When I restored it, I set the wheel spacing for my roll over plow. That just happened to be right width for the mower too.
Right away that 1655 on the discbine looks like a great team, almost like the ought to always be joined at the drawbar.
It's a great match
Nice looking team you got there Chris. That Oliver 1655 is looking and running great as is the Gehl 2360. Would type more comment but I can't type and eat at the same time!🤣🤣Have a great day and thanks for sharing!
Thanks Dan! 😄

It is very good site when you use one that fully res and painted. Sure like the fwa's
Thanks!
Fresh mowed 2nd and tossiling corn needs the Super-O HD Smell O Vision!!
Add in about perfect weather conditions. It was a great day.
Must be second cut? Up here we are still working on first cut. 🤣. But there aren’t many years we take a second, usually into grain harvest by then. Lots of times once the hay gets a few good frosts we’ll let the cows graze off the regrowth.
Yes, second cut. I typically get 3, occasionally a 4th. It gets too hard to dry it out after mid September
Nice video Chris, nothing like cutting hay to clean up the tires!
Thanks!
Boy that thing is SHARP!
Thanks!
That's a pretty nice combination
Thanks!
Very nice tractor. I have plowed a lot of ground with a neighbor's 1650 Diesel 2wd when I was growing up. I miss it!
Thanks!
Love the smell of freshly mown hay and when it is baled. Hey nice spotting with the snapping critter too. All in all a great video bro. Safe travels. Ken.
Thanks 👍
That’s some mighty good alfalfa hay. Iam jealous. Good crop Chris.
Thanks 👍
That tractor is my favorite tractor of yours. I hope my White 2-70 FWA turns out as nice as that tractor whenever I finish it up.
I hope so too! Is it a silver or red stripe?
@@ThatOliverGuyChris Per the s/n, it is a 1979 silver stripe with unique 2 piece side hood shields.
@@erichelmer8098 cool! Now I've got to look that up in the parts book.
@@ThatOliverGuyChris I've not found out much about it. I've only heard a story, but never seen a service bulletin or parts listing to back the story up.
@@erichelmer8098 not doubting it, but it's also the first I've heard of it. Where does it split at?
The 1655 showed the young whippersnapper 2-70 how to properly mow a field without breaking down. 😉
😂. Or emptying a fuel tank
That is one sweet machine.Plus the hat ain’t too bad looking either. Now, if you just had a pretty operator, you would have 1 million views. Trifecta
You're not wrong.
Nice looking alfalfa.
Thank you
Great video. Looks like you need auto steer so you can focus on the drone work. 😂 Like seeing those other Green tractors. I’m from Connecticut, I don’t see them around here.
Thanks!
The videos are getting a more professional look Chris.
Like the flag
Love the tractors.
Keep up the good work.
Thanks 👍
That is one nice 1655. Any wheat harvest footage this year in your new combine coming up.
Sorry, wheat is all done. I took the camera and the drone and never took the time to film.
That's a good looking tractor I would like to have one like that
Thanks!
Very nice looking hay making outfit
Thank you
Question: Does that root exposure indicate too much water?
On the corn? No, those are brace roots. They always have those
Gee, too bad you couldn't get through a video without a deer(e) making an appearance. I expect it from Ross' videos, but you usually avoid it! 😅
I assume this was the 4th's parade unit!
The opening scene flying over the beans, there was a deer out there. I stopped and sent the drone up and figured I'd buzz the deer. By the time I launched, the deer was nowhere to be seen.
The 1655 has made quite a few appearances in the 4th of July parade. It's always a crowd pleaser, but still doesn't get the attention that Herman does.
It's what happens when you put a RWD designed engine in a FWD car. Even in an S-10 the distributor still is a difficult nearly blind job! UGH
Wrong video maybe?
