A friend of mine bought one of these in 1989. He still has it and it still does the job. I've always liked the older equipment because it has less computers, monitors, sensors etc to fubar your day. Great video as always.
I love the Case IH Combines so much that if I had the opportunity I’d ride in one harvesting corn or soybeans( preferably corn) all day and never get sick of it
Yeah on the farm that I live on there’s a 2377 Case IH Combine that I “hunt for” or in other words look for as hard as I possibly can in the fall season so that I can take combine rides in it and so far not much luck but hopefully that changes this coming weekend and I can be blessed with a Case IH 2377 Combine ride :( I mean this is why I love the fall season because of farming and the beautiful landscapes and different colors in the trees and blue mountains💞🇺🇸☮️🚜❤️I wish I could get a ride in what I call the “family combine” this coming weekend :/
Our 1660 combine with a IH 466 engine has been our main girl for over 20 years. It's great for our 400 acres a year of corn and with duals and a mudhog system it'll go just about anywhere in our area in WNY
Still run a 1979 IH Axial Flow combine. Does a great job in wheat, millet and milo. So far, have been lucky in still finding parts to keep it running well.
Many years ago one of my customers got a new 1440 combine. He brought in his first load of spring wheat and when I got the scale ticket in my office I saw that my guys didn't take any dockage on the load. I asked them about it and they showed me the sample from the load. The sample was as clean as seed wheat. We were impressed.
G F Cooper Farms in Ohio. We've got the IH 1460 and 1480 combines that we are still using today to harvest corn and beans with. Love these older machines.
This was a great video on this older combine Jason. Enjoyed hearing the history and seeing how much things have become more sophisticated in the new combines. Thank you. Peter
Our red cab 1985 IH 1460 has the factory DT466 engine. You would be surprised at the numerous updates such as shaft size and bearing sizes on some parts. We have had everything off of ours except the cab, engine and one front final drive. Dad still used it this fall with no break downs.
There are plenty of International machines with original engines/radiators/etc that weren't factory spec. The assembly line didn't stop because a 414 wasn't available, while a 436 was.
It amazes me to see how clean and straightforward the controls were on this 1985 Case IH 1460. When you think about just how complicated the electronics are on the harvesters of today, you almost need to be a rocket scientist to run them. 😉 Love seeing your videos my friend.
Great video Jason. I love watching classic combines harvesting corn and beans. They may not be high powered or fancy but they still get the job done.😊😊😊
Memories from Indiana! The first combine I bought was a 1460 after my Dad sold his New Holland 985 which was a great machine, but after he drove the 1460 he thought he was in heaven! Soooooo much easier to work on, the 985 it always seemed like you'd have to take off 2 belts to get to the one that needed replacing. On my third 1660 (combine fires) now a 1990 model. Would have replaced it with a 2166 or 2366 by now but a rod went through the block on the Cummins motor and rebuilt it. But maybe next year. Really want to see if the newer cab's on the 2000 series are less dusty due to having covid lung and on oxygen. If anyone thinks they are an improvement please let me know. If not I'll keep on rolling in the Ole 1660. And nice video!
Love the video. We have a beautiful well-kept well-maintained one at auction this week in Indiana. It has been an excellent piece of equipment in our farming business. Retired from farming so equipment no longer needed.
Hi Jason. Thank you for your videos. The only combine I ever rode or drove was back in 1975 here in New Zealand. It had no cab, just a sun screen. Steering levers brake system to steer it. It had also been converted from a bagging system to bulk. Also a petrol engine, straight 4 cylinder. Harvested barley for feed in Hawkes Bay province. No photos and I cannot remember the model. You got very warm and itchy harvesting barley. We also baled the straw. Best regards, Silas.
The first combine I learned to drive was a 1460 in 1997 when I was 15 in wheat. I choked it down every time I came across a thistle weed. What a long summer!
I owned a 1460 for several years, but I believe it was manufactured before the sale to J I Case. Had a 4wd added to it after a wet fall that saw me pulled backwards out of sand hills numerous times. Great combine for the time! Traded on a 1660 that I ran for over ten years.
We run a pair of 1480’s on our farm in wheat and canola. Great old machines, easy to run, easy to work on, and they do a great job all these years later
My boss's brother has two CaseIH 1680s with 6-row headers for grain corn here in northern Germany. Both machines harvest between 250-600 hectares of corn every year. He also has a partially restored International 1480, but unfortunately the machine is not running yet.
Hi our family has been going down on the wheat run and we do alot of custom work in the fall here in southern minnesota but anyways my dad and uncle would trade combines every fall and in in 85 I remember we were supposed to get 4 iH 1480s but two of them and up showed up as caseih 1480 I can remember alot of our customers thought we repainted them but my uncle would always say that's the way the dam things showed up needless to say he was never happy about that merger so in 1990 when massey came out with the 8570 we traded and started running massey until 2019 in 2020 we went back to caseih now we have 4 8250s.
Wow that really brings back memories I grew up in one of them things learned how to drive and operate a combine I think we had close to 10,000 hours on ours before we ever got rid of it probably one of the best combines ever built The new ones are junk at 5000 hours I have one I know
Last combine our family bought was international 1460 in 1979. When started on 2500 acres rice farm in south east Texas. In 1962 had massy 90 2 international 151 & 2 international 403 In 64 got j d 105 Then massy 510 eventually 3 of those then massy 750 and international 915 when got 1460. It😂was unbelievable. Cut 200000 lbs in one day in 160 bushel corn. 160-180 k rice with 18 ft header. For time nothing else was close
$86,700 in 1985. Wow. We had a 1480. It was a very good machine. The 466 would run on full out day after day. The hardest duty cycle application known to man. I ran our 1480 quite a bit, often late into the night. We wore out the transition cone on it. Not easy to replace. Our 1480 replaced a TR75 and a 914 and did just about as much as both together. The 1480 got replaced with more TR - 95, 97 and 99. Those were good combines except the stone traps weren't the best.
I have the same combine, 2nd great machine. 3200 hours on it. Was a late serial number machine. Some of the parts on it are the same as the 1660. Run a 22 ft straight cut header on it for wheat and barley. Love the straight pipe on it sounds great.
I will have to do a look over next time I see one of these model years. I assummed the owners upgraded the paint to look like a newer model. thanks for posting
I live in Nebraska out by North Platte there's still a few of them around. Yeah good combines you don't have the electronic screwing up your day when they go bad.
Being the trucker that I am I would be interested just what the load weighed in at. Usually if you are loading to the bows like that you are beyond running overweight.
I had a 1440 ih same size rotor but build a little lighter. I was told the 1440 was put on the old ih 815 frames and the 1460 on the 915 frames with the turbo on the 436 engine. I liked mine
My old boss well my first farm boss if I remember correctly ran a 1660 or a 1680 case international combine with ether a 4 row or a 6 row head I can't remember off hand but i'm 26 years old and I love these older combines and machines
Good machine I remember somebody in S Ontario had one late 70s. With a grain cart could combine 60 acres of corn a day unloading on the go. The rotor was touchy in damp conditions they said. We had a Turbo 700 Deere great machine too
We had a 1482 with a 6788 pulling it and then later on a 1480 with upgraded axles from a 1680 and upgraded feeder housing hydraulics from a 1680 to lift larger and heavier tables.
This video is a little hard on me today. Seen a combine like that harvest alot of corn. Great combine, I knew it was a 1985 model before you indicated that it was that year model. John T.
I see he has the rear tires facing forwards, so is that one a HRWA model or is that just how he had them at the time? I enjoy seeing classic/vintage machine still in good shape out there getting things done just fine. BTP- did you ever notice that the refrigerator on the TV show friends was an International Harvester?
I ran an international 1420 on a farm I worked for for many acres. Then we upgraded to a 1666. That was like a caddy compared to the 1420. The 1666 is still going. Just seen it cutting soybeans yesterday.
International Harvester Axial Flow, Massey Ferguson and Allis Chalmers Gleaner are my favorite purely because they lead and have a amazing history. Massey I think were the first to create a self propelled combine harvester.
You are right they are all very historic. I enjoy filming the classics. Gleaner built the first self propelled combine in 1923. Allis-Chalmers bought Gleaner in 1955. AGCO has special S9 Gleaners with 100 years of Gleaner graphics for 2023.
@@bigtractorpower My apologies. I stated that as many years ago I remember reading something at the Massey Ferguson dealership I worked at after high school regarding Massey being the first self propelled. Anyways regarding the Internationals and the Gleaners I mentioned, I say that because they both oozes there brands identity thru engineering, styling and colors very strongly. All the brands in recent 20 yrs or so they have very similar lines.... This to me is what keeps the memories and dreams of the brands alive for the owners. Here's a quote as follows. Introduced in 1938, the MH-20 pioneered a harvesting revolution, for the first time separating the tractor from the trailed reaper machines, providing large area farmers with huge gains in productivity and performance. The machine not only made a massive leap forward in farm mechanisation, but also introduced the term ‘combine harvester’ and laid the foundations for further harvesting innovations.
Your narrative is historically accurate. However, you just didn't mention the fact that the 1985 Case-IH models are simply transitional. Another interesting fact that you can add, is that starting in 1986, which is the first full year of the Case-IH combines, is that the radiator and rotary screen were reconfigured, to the back of the engine compartment. Also, another unique feature, was the really big numbers emblazoned on the separators, above the stripe that bore the corporate name. Those lasted until 1993. Then Case-IH return to the smaller font, and included it in the stripe, just like before.
I’m super curious, where do you get all your specs for the equipment?? You do an amazing job with your history and specs!! As a farm boy I memorized tractor specs growing up. Now I’m an engineer, but still help grow a few crops on the old dairy (retired) farm.
I have collected sales literature at tractor dealers since I was 5 years old. I have a fairly complete collection of all brands. Original sales literature is helpful for specs and details for a production run.
This Video is awesome!! Thank you so much for capturing it so well. I’ve driven the neighbor’s 1440 for the last 5 years (1980?). Then late last fall he bought a 1640. (1986?) So I’ve driven both and seen the differences firsthand. I didn’t know about the transition year model. Is it only for the 1460, or is it also for the 1440/1480? Look at my profile for a couple of videos! I love 70, 80, 90s equipment, especially combines!!
The full Axial Flow line was in production in 1985. 1420, 1440, 1460, 1470, 1480 and 1482. I have seen a few 1985 1460s in pictures and a 1480 for sale in Illinois.
A friend of mine bought one of these in 1989. He still has it and it still does the job. I've always liked the older equipment because it has less computers, monitors, sensors etc to fubar your day. Great video as always.
I agree with you Frank Ward.
How old are those Case IH Combines?
I love the Case IH Combines so much that if I had the opportunity I’d ride in one harvesting corn or soybeans( preferably corn) all day and never get sick of it
I had a 1460 ih. Was a good combine. Ran pretty much trouble free. I harvested corn, beans and wheat with it. Did a great job.

First combine I drove in the 80’s. I’m running a 8120 now and am amazed how far we’ve come. She was so simple in hindsight.
Very nice. I had a chance to video a 1480 this fall. The 8120 sure grew the size of the Axial-Flows ability.
My family's operation has one of these IRL, picked it up for 2k right before harvest this year, runs pretty good along side the 815 and 2588
We had a 1460 a 1660 then a 2166 and now a 2577. They were very reliable and simple combines, they work good !!

The new ones are junk at 5000 hours I have one I know
The one in the video had 7,400 hours. Solid built harvesters.
I love my 1460. Few updates I have in it. Kile flitting, concaves, vanes, monitor and rood on bin.

Have a 1460 case international. It's hard to get parts for and noting but trouble. Our 1440 was great however

Also, another unique feature, was the really big numbers emblazoned on the separators, above the stripe that bore the corporate name. Those lasted until 1993. Then Case-IH return to the smaller font, and included it in the stripe, just like before.
37 years young, looking good for it too...
Neat variation.
That 1460 has a cleaner bin sample then the new machines 😮and no auto steer beep
Great video! Butler County Farm
Thank you for the great connection
I’m super curious, where do you get all your specs for the equipment?? You do an amazing job with your history and specs!! As a farm boy I memorized tractor specs growing up. Now I’m an engineer, but still help grow a few crops on the old dairy (retired) farm.
I have collected sales literature at tractor dealers since I was 5 years old. I have a fairly complete collection of all brands. Original sales literature is helpful for specs and details for a production run.
We have a neighbor in Ohio here who has one of those combines its pretty cool.
War wahrscheinlich der beste Mähdrescher der Welt
Bella macchina. 💪👍👍👍
We use a 1660 and harvest wheat, corn and beans with it.
This Video is awesome!! Thank you so much for capturing it so well. I’ve driven the neighbor’s 1440 for the last 5 years (1980?). Then late last fall he bought a 1640. (1986?) So I’ve driven both and seen the differences firsthand. I didn’t know about the transition year model. Is it only for the 1460, or is it also for the 1440/1480? Look at my profile for a couple of videos! I love 70, 80, 90s equipment, especially combines!!
The full Axial Flow line was in production in 1985. 1420, 1440, 1460, 1470, 1480 and 1482. I have seen a few 1985 1460s in pictures and a 1480 for sale in Illinois.
9120 and 9230 We harvest around 3000 acre of Rice with these machines in southwest Louisiana
Very nice. I hope to get a chance to film and feature rice harvest some day.
Am in Africa and what I would do for 1 of these. Am looking at 1 and its going for USD20000. But no penny to my name😢
So much for the buddy seat on this combine
