I have one 3000 to 1973 .
16000hrs..
INDESTRUCTIBLE.
FORD IS GOLD 💪👌👍 SIMPLY THE BEST 💪👍❤️
So I went back and watched this again. I have a 1968 Ford 3000 with a front bucket. They added the remote hydraulics to run it. I have the 4-speed with transmission PTO but wish I had the hi-lo like you with live PTO. I do have power assist steering, which is pretty critical with the FEL. Mine’s gasoline instead of diesel, so you have, what, 5-6 more hp. Anyway, they’re solid workhorse tractors. Back in the 1960’s, we had a 2000 configured like my 3000 and a 4000 in gas but with the hi-lo 8-speed and live PTO. Dad and I cut a few wagon loads of hickory and oak for a sawmill to cut into full inch 1x6s for us to build a corral. We skidded and loaded all of them with 3-point cranes like you have, using both the tractors. I’m having flashbacks!
I love my old Ford 800 too.
It's a granddaddy to your tractor but still does it all!
Such an iconic looking tractor, as others have commented great camera work!
Watching this video encourages me to get on my tractor. Excellent video footage. Ford 3000 is a work horse.
Jerry Little It’s unstoppable. Thanks for watching!
Totally agree, I work my 77 acres with my 1971 Ford 3000. Bought it new and couldn’t live here without it.
Very cool video. You do it all. Stationary , Drone etc. Great editing and story telling
My daughter just purchase 20 acres and it came with the 73 Ford 4000 diesel. Great tractor. Easy to work on. Love it
Loved this video, your tractor is perfect for a small farm/ranch . You can do almost anything .
Solid work man. The ol' implement shuffle.
Those three point implements are handy. What would this world be like without big boy toys? Neat shots with the camera, I think I got some rock in my eye when you threw it with that shovel out of your scoop!
Mr. Rain Ha! Thanks for the compliments!
I love your videos! Nothing better than having the snow fall outside while sitting by the fire and enjoying your video. Very relaxing. Thank you!
Thanks, Slade!
Love ur videos im in Georgia watch your channel all the time
First off, your camera work is phenomenal.. you e set the bar for other youtubers .. secondly, those lil ford tractors are hard to beat.. pound for pound maybe the toughest little tractors built .. great job
The old simple 3 cylinder diesels ...👍👍👍👍
Superb..! I should buy a Ford 3000 right away..
Nicely done. Love the many great camera angles.
Nice tractor, I’ve got a 1969 2000 with the loader and a sims cab that I need to get fixed up before my kids born so he can go for a tractor ride the day he gets home like I did with my grandfather when he owned the tractor.
Puttin that old ford to work. I like it! I just stumbled across your channel. Good videos!
Picked up an '86 Ford 1910 4wd diesel with front loader and a bunch of attachments for the back about 8 yrs ago for $5k. What a great little work horse. I've a '53 Ford Golden Jubliee and a couple Kubotas but I have to say I think I am most attached to that little blue Ford. Great job on the filming and the editing. Sound track was good as well. A lot of these RUclips posters could learn a thing or two from your style.
Colorado Mountain Man Thank you!
Nice vid. The ford 3000 caught my eye. I used a 3000 on my uncle's farm hauling grain growing up and hearing that diesel pur brought back so many memories I had to sub!
Darryl and Beth Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it.
Keep up the good job.... God bless!!
Love the drone shots, very cool perspective!
There's something soothing about watching tractors work . Great videos dude, my little boy and I love 'em!
Nice video. Peace and Good Fortune to you and your family. Blessings for the new baby to arrive soon and healthy. :)
Thinking about buying one this weekend to go with my old 743 Bobcat Skidsteer. Good video !
Video presentation is really coming up... music, variety of shots, drone overhead.. Beautiful editing.. 👍
Jennifer WhiteWolf Thanks!
Love my 3600.
Really well done! *Keep it up!*
Ford should pay for this footage for their ads!
We had a Ford 3000 when i was a teenager talk about a real workhorse. For 3 years that tractor was our main source of income. We put up over 20,000 bales of hay each year. We did brush cutting, plowing and what ever else we could do. It wont be a Ford but i am hoping to get a new tractor this spring and get back to doing something. I am no longer able to do things i use to do by hand but i can still get alot of work done with a good tractor. Thanks for showing what can be done.
Ken Jett Thanks, Ken. Always enjoy your comments.
Just bought an old Ford 2000 earlier this evening. Not in as good a shape as your 3000 but I'm looking forward putting it through it's paces.
There’s a 2110 near me for sale, you think they’re worth it?
@@TacoCrisma well I've had my 2000 around 7 months and worked it like a borrowed mule. Pulled and moved tons of trees including large oaks. Moved tons of dirt with a box blade and a scoop (no front end loader), and cleared out an old field that had been let go for a decade. It runs an old bush hog just fine without ever over heating. Honestly I think it may not even have a thermostat in it anymore but that's fine. It's just been a beast. I only wish it had the locking differential option but it still does well with good tread and filled tires. The only issues were a minor fuel drip from the valve and choke on the carburetor and the pivot pin in the hydraulics was wore down so it stopped going up correctly. The valve got a new O-ring and I still haven't fixed the carb because it only drips when I start it with the choke. I even had the rebuild kit sitting in the garage for months. I think the new pin costs $10. The shifter will hang up or pop out if you shift too hard so I fixed that by not shifting too hard lol Honestly I would expect more issues from a brand new tractor.
@@joshblick ive got one with the locking dif, there are so many times ive gotten stuck and i just press the petal and drive out
We have worked ours like a dog for 6 years and it runs just like new
Great movie, greetings from Poland ! :) :)
I owned one for many years. Yes it was a very Good dependable tractor.
Great little tractors use to love driving these tractors and it’s a good at ploughing
Outstanding Wes, outstanding. That took a lot of work to make. Excellent as usual.
Plus it looks fun!
Thanks, Tim!
They sure don’t build them like they use to anymore. No plastic on that Ford!!
Sorry, but your wrong....the battery casing and the steering wheel...all joking aside, ive got the 4500 model. Ive had trees spring back when clearing lots and smack the front cowling rattling my 13,000lb machine and it did not even make a scratch!! A new machine...well you can imagine.
I never wanted a drone until I watched this. Your camera shots are great. You could do a video on how you set up.
How many cameras do you use?
Glad to see a video.....your lucky you don't have snow....here in Jersey it's been cold and snowy....
JONATHAN. P Very thankful we don’t get much snow here. Stay warm!
you can never have too many implements i have learned.
Pond scoop is great for skidding logs too
Best tractor, great condition, we had two of the new front nose shape, 70' s models and they did incredibly good with no problems, i know they still work today
Jan Kotze i have a 74 diesel and i put IT to good USE and i take good CARE of it
Good drone and video production.
Steven Meyer Thanks!
Great camera work ,I want you to build a shed for your tractor attachments, to protect them from the weather,
We just bought one :-)
Gotta watch that glove when using the boom!
Seen many a time tractor flip because of that additional weight.
😊
Got to love Ford. I have a Ford 4000
I used to own one and use one On my small farm decades ago,always regret selling it,now! I have a Massey Fergus 1967 model,in Rossendale valley East lands E ngland.
Nice little setup!! Looks like some metal in that butt log !!
Thanks!
Quite a versatile machine.
Love2boat92 Yes it is!
I really loved this video! Great camera angles too. Watching you switch back and forth between box blade and rear scoop really made me appreciate my FEL (front end loader).What was that tall grass like stuff you were bush whacking in the field? And I assume the vines wrapped around that log weren't poison ivy. Were they bittersweet? Just wondering. Keep up the great filming! (Don't forget a video update on your kiln)
WOW!!! Nice work with the drone! I'd love to have an old tractor like yours or Bus Huxley's but I have about two square inches of level ground on my 13 acres. ;-P
Thanks, Jason! I think you'll get more utility out of that shiny John Deere of yours...just be thankful for power steering!
Oh yes! Unfortunately today I had to use it to clear 8” of snow off of my driveway 😬
That JD of your's works swell at clearing snow! I've been muckling around in four feet of crusty snow the last couple days and we are getting 14" more inches tomorrow. I'm growing weary! Box blades all around! @@NorthwestSawyer
I know now how you are getting your videos framed well and shot...your using a drone at times-smart !
I have the Ford 3000 diesel tractor I use it all the time
Great video demonstration on how versatile an old tractor is! Sure you dont have cup holders or a 12v jack to charge your phone, but that old tractor can do anything any new tractor can do! I know, cause my dad has the industrial version of your tractor, the 3500. And i have the 4500 - you can check it out on my channel. One last thing, do you ever plan on putting an FEL on that thing? Of all the things your doing I know an FEL would help and save time!!
My Old Tractor Would love to have one. Sadly, they cost money! Maybe one day. Appreciate the great comment.
You got wood and a Tractor, now what you need next is Log Skid Wagon
Funny I do the same thing putts around in the shop with the stove going read a little then go get something done👍 like the videos subscribed
Back In The Woods Thanks!
Excellent production and editing. What kind of drone do you have? Works great.
Dillons Woodworks Thanks Mike! It’s the Mavic Air. I shopped and compared a long time before I got it. I’ve been extremely happy with it.
where did you find or get the dump truck implement ?
Do you burn or mulch the scrap pile from the bandsaw mill?
Edad Martin it gets burned.
oh man I sure miss my old wood heater.great page you have bud, enjoy it very much,i have my mill in the shop just got in this week sitting on the table waiting to be put together,its no wood mizer but it will mill,a hobby Hudson lol,Are there any trees that are not good for milling ? I didn't think sycamore would be any good until I seen you milling just the other day,your house is looking great too...you already got me on graigs list looking for a ford lol
Ba'rad 's You won’t be able to tell the difference in the lumber from your mill and one that costs 5 times as much. I haven’t found any wood unsuitable for milling yet, although I’m sure it exists. Appreciate the comment. Hope you find a Ford!
Well done! I noticed a few pieces of safety equipment missing on some rotating parts that you might want to replace.
Thanks, Michael! Yes, there are some things missing...I just try to steer clear.
wicked
Boa noite amigo sou seu fã. Brasil
That's what I need to do pull out some logs after I bust a few more block's of wood
That's why I love tractors..
Wow man cool video, no lumber milling, but super cool. Love all the attachments for that beast. At the 10 min and 30 sec mark was that all you or do you own a super fast shovel? LOL!
Glastenbury Designs Woodshop Ha! I’d get a lot more done if I could move like that. Appreciate the kind words.
Must be box grader week on the sawmill channels.
I wish I knew a valuable use for dog fennels. they’re the one thing I can grow and well.
Think god I have a case skidsteer loader , also have a couple 80s ford tractors always want to buy a scoop for my tractor but for hauling my saws and gear .
Front end weight set would be nice, can get a little white knuckle when the front tires come up off the ground especially when trying to turn. I have a 73 4000 and with the 6 ft shredder hooked up and going up a couple steep incline roads/trails I get the same floating front end experience, I keep looking for a front end weight set, but they think that iron is the price of gold lol. Get vid!
Thanks, Michael! I think it could use a little more weight on the front...but it's such a small tractor...I just figure if the front end comes up I'm asking it to do a little more than it should.
Hey what cause the lift not to work on the Ford tractor
👍👍👍
Awesome job, how is the wife doing in pregnancy, I hope everything is going well for y’all take care my friend god bless from the
🇺🇸🇺🇸🐊🐊Cajun 🐊🐊🇺🇸🇺🇸
Donald Trabeaux jr Appreciate you asking. She’s doing great. Any day now!
@@falllineridge I enjoy your videos. Hope your wife has a beautiful and healthy sawyer!
Are you using a drone with the follow me feature or is the Misses piloting?
Rabid Fan It’s the Mavic Air follow me or active track. Works pretty good.
As you were starting and backing the tractor out, I noticed that your fan belt is starting to 'whip' a little. Maybe in about 6 months it will go out on you. Just letting you know. If it is a new belt, it needs to be tightened a little.
Dip your hand in your wallet and send him a new one !.
You can spread that gravel with the front end of the dirt scoop. Keeps you from having to get off and spread it with the shovel
I'm familiar with that method...but it's just not that accurate...especially in tight, steep areas like that. Does ok where it's flat.
I too own a 65 Ford 3000 gas with horizontal exhaust almost identical to yours. I build trails and work up and plant food plots. I like how nibble it is for going through the woods. I have all the farming attachments including a loader. I took the loader off a few years ago and haven’t but it back on as I don’t need it often. I have an electronic full book on all the details of the tractor. If you send me your email address I would send you a copy.
Thanks for sharing your informative saw videos.
Jim
James Morse That’d be great! Falllineridge@gmail.com. Thanks!
I just sent you a OneDrive link to the Manual. Let me know if you don’t get it. Jim
James Morse - atlcardoc@yahoo.com Would you mind sending me a copy as well, if you don’t mind? I have a ‘66 3000 diesel. Thanks.
Get To The Point please confirm when received. Thanks
James Morse - meilleurtruc@gmail.com Would you mind sending me a copy as well, if you don’t mind? I have a ‘74 3000 diesel. Thanks.
This look soo familiar :) , my Ford 3000 looks a little shabbier than yours due to some pain flaking. Did you ever had problems with the clutch getting stuck after storing it for a while ? I am hoping I can unstuck mine by jerking it back and forth a bit, but if that does not do it ... the perspective of splitting it does not sound appealing ( mine has a front end loader, I do not have a proper shop close by etc ... )
BillyFromAHillyPlace No problems so far. How does it do with the loader? I’ve always wondered if the front axle could take it, but it seems like a common option so must be fine.
@@falllineridge It is a bit big to maneuver in the forest, but quite handy to push yourself backwards inch by inch when you get stuck in the mud :)
BillyFromAHillyPlace
Sometimes you can break the clutch loose if you can be pushing against a tree and pop the clutch in and out while in 1st gear
класс
Can u please give the address for the grader level ing to purchase I want to purchase thanks
Hey i have a ford 3000 and i have some issues with the hidraulic its realy slow.
The seals and oil ring have been replaced and the oil pump is working do you have any ideas?
Check the flow across your pressure relief valve also test pump pressure when you dead head it
@@tarun1902 and how do i do that?
I have a chance to buy a Ford tractor 1510 right now should I buy it guy says its a 35 horsepower can u put a front end loader on these tractors ? Also will new attachments fit on this model guy says its a 2000 model any info would be helpful thank u I have a sawmill will be using it to load the sawmill skid etc...
What year is the ford 3000?
Good stuff. How far from the main road do you live? Looks like nice weather there, we were low 40's today LOL. I threw up a real quick video of cold it was earlier this week -20 degrees Thursday morning, and -9 friday morning with out wind chill. In the video there is a couple of shots of the old John Deere tractor. I tried to start it today and the squirrels or tree rats ate some wiring since I parked it jan 4 for surgery. I now have one mission to wipe out all the squirrels in my yard and house my dog is not doing her job no more treats LOL Have a good one and stay cool lol
Larry Downes We are about 4 tenths of a mile from the road. I struggle with squirrel control as well. Good luck!
Dump that gravel at the back of the holes , then set the scoop flat on the ground behind it and drag/spread it forward before box blading.
I want a pre force ford 3000
playing with Poison Ivy gain; Lucky!!

Is your tractor diesel or gas
you need some sway bars on it
I had a ford 5,000 68 hp and could do more work than my new newholand 70 hp 4x4. The 5,000 had a Slectaspeed transmission that finely went out and wluld have cost more then fix than the tractor was worth.
Little T that C needs a FEL bucket, just sayin’😉
Agreed.
Fall Line Ridge But you got the job done using what tools / resources you had available, & I have great respect & admiration for that kind of can do attitude, having farmed 20 odd years myself with just an old 20Hp Ferguson TEA 20 kerosene/petrol powered WW2 era tractor & minimal equipment!
Also used a jib crane on 3pl to shift logs under my portable sawmill, for those 20 years.
Retired now, but I sense a “kindred spirit” & REALLY enjoyed your video, brought back many fond memories of my years on our 28 acre deer farm here downunder!
I even had 6 of your whitetail deer for a while!
Keep up the good work!
Any fool can just buy the latest greatest equipment- but it takes true grit to make do & make sh!t happen, with what you have to hand!!
Teddy Roosevelt’ probably said it best!
“"The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena; whose face is marred by sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs and comes short again and again because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotion, spends himself in a worthy cause; who at best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement; and who at worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who have never tasted victory or defeat."
Take my hat off to you mate, cheers & cold beers from me downunder! 👍
Ian Moone Thanks for that great comment/quote! Glad you enjoyed watching!
How can anyone log their land so heavy?? But nice tractor
dowdawg The spot you saw was just a few clear cut acres that is being planted as a Christmas tree farm. The rest of the land is hardwoods and pine.
I have a ford 4000su
I have a Ford 4000 1970 model,with lights like this 3000,made in England,but with an 78hp engine,replaced the genuine engine.It works like a mule!
Awesome video. I just got an old gas Ford 2000. What do you call that implement your dragging the log with?
@@floydianwall It's name is log tongs my friend!
It's not a little tractor :( it's a 40hp pto, they don't build them like they used to, I'm about to resleeve mine this winter, I don't think mines ever been rebuilt. It has a good amount of blowby
If Im right this is a Ford 3000 super dexta from about 1966?
jskfoto You are close. As near as I can tell it’s a 1967. Not sure about other designations.
As long it has blue fenders its a super dexta! White fenders came later with the new name without super dexta.
jskfoto Cool! Thanks for the info!
Why don't you brush of power/wash and grease your attachments, they'll last twice as long .
You should build a log trolley to pick up the back end of logs. It would same a lot of wear and tear on your rock road.
Robert Herzog Would be nice.
That is one NOISEY Diesel!
If that's little my jd 2320 is a toy
Lol.
