My favorite tractor is the same as many people's favorite... Dad's tractor.

I opperated a Ford 9600,8600,9700 & John Deere. 4020,3020,1520,2510 among others while working on a farm in the 80's.it was the best time of my life.
I love these years!! No computers, just big steel machines to turn the dirt over! Nothing but raw horse power!!
as I had wondered over the last few years when the tractors came with computers. Do they make the crops get better yields?
Case tractors are my favorite, especially the 30 and 70 series. We ran a 970, an 1170 and a 1470. I got the privilege to run a 730 that belonged to our neighbor. Loved them all.
I grew up watching all the old classic tractors.
My all time favourite is the 1150 Massey Ferguson first row crop tractor with a V8.
Paul Hudson I wish there were more 1150s and 1155s in Australia. I really want one
I grew up around Ford tractors and they have always been my favorite tractors . When they went to New Holland in my opinion they took a major back step in tractors.
Don't be bloody stupid they then and now have and had the mighty fiat owning and designing. That's what makes nh the awesome force they are today.
To be honest Fiat poured millions and millions of dollars into Ford New Holland to bring that line up to world class
Ditto.
@@paulsharpe6996 meaning?
@@paulsharpe6996 I had a cousin named Paul Sharpe from Oregon I haven't seen in 61 years. I grew up in Wisconsin riding an Oliver 1850 gas, about 90 hp.
I was born and raised in Iowa and I first would like to thank the people that put this video on!! I'm so loyal to my state even though I spent about 25 years in my adult life living elsewhere. It thrills my heart to see that rich black soil being turned over and worked by these excellent amount of tractors you have in this video and also to see these big steel tractors working again in the fields, As well as seeing the farmers bouncing up and down in the seat again in these older tractors with a piece of cake equipment being pulled behind. Those are the days that I grew up on the farm and my father had four different tractors and my brothers all argue to this day which was the best. I, & another sister worked Very Hard to five my parents a 50th anniversary quilt which represented all four of those tractors on the quilt because of the arguments that took place once I presented the idea of representing Mom and Dad's life together...(& what a Grand Life we had w/ them & us 12 children on our Farms❣️)
So, What were the Four tractors: a John Deere 3130 (later, w/ a Suncover😊), and International Harvester, A Farmall MD (around 1940ish era that had been my Grandfather's..I really like that tractor because my mom could write on it with him once in a while and it had the tires spread wider apart in the front and a stirring wheel w/ the "LONG"'CRANK ROD ??(sorry guys I'm an artist not a tractor mechanic... it was one of my favorite because it looked cool LOL and had the best sounding engine--it really "purred" when it ran; old Used Massey-Ferguson (my Mother's favorite- she said it was easy to see over to drive as she was short and she's like the steering mechanism in it; .... also there was a brief time there was a blue Ford that my father borrowed from my uncle on the farm when I was 11 years old but it was not ours but it was fairly new and shiny… My dad hated it LOL.
Thank you for this wonderful video❣️I can't tell you how much this meant to me to be able to go back through memory lane and reminisce being on the farm. It was the happiest days of my life and while I am approaching 70 years old, and I never drove a tractor. I certainly helped Bill Haley and helped with the corn harvest and everything else it involves farming and I walked a lot of fields Interior live do you lunches WAY OIT TO THE BACK "QUARTER" (of 640 acres) to take Daddy his lunch...Mother had too many babies and she couldn't leave the house and Daddy would meet me halfway😊❣️THANK YOU
Spent a lot of my teenage years in the early 70's on a 1066 and Ford 9000. Good memories.
I've been to a lot of vintage farm class tractor pulls and the 1066 seems to always dominate its class.
My favorite is John Deere 4320 and Ford 9600. The Ford looks so impressive
Spent alot of time as a teen on a Farmall 560 6 cylinder diesel hauling loads, spreading manure, disking, cultivating, chopping corn stalks, baling, etc. Loved that machine. Then later blew out my ears in an 806 with a cab that trapped all the sound. Then a 986 sweet noise relief! Was a 1466 and an old 300 in the mix also
We had a brand spanking new 1155 Ferguson in '74 . Chucked the crank right out the block without so much as a tick ,clunk or sputter with 28 hours on it . Needless to say I quickly became a huge Allis Chalmers fan when the new one arrived next day . It was a beast and would drag twice what the Ferguson would . Thanks for the memories .👍👍
I grew up in the 60's and the 70's working a dairy farm in the Endless Mountains on PA. We were a Massey Ferguson farm so they definitely have a special place for me especially the 1085. Most of the farms around us were either Massey or Farmall farms,
Hard not to acknowledge of all these tractors the Massey Fergusons are the ones still out there working today. You just can't beat those Perkins engines.
That 9600 Ford is AWSOME reminds me of when I was a kid
I like finding big blue Fords to film. My neighbor had a 9000 with a cab when I was a kid.
@Jim Stark awesome
my after school job in mid seventies was plowing with a Massey 165 and 3 bottom plow on my grandparents and uncles farm on P.E.I. ( with my dog riding along on the floorboard ) .... great little tractor that could do some great wheelies with the plow raised 🙂
thank for bringing back some great memories 🙂
More hours in the seat of a Ford 9600 than I can total. Thanks BTP for the memories.
We run two ford 9600s and an 8000 so this is right up my alley
My grandfather had an International 856, so i'm kinda partial to this era of International. Miss working with him in that old tractor. Love the channel.
The 856 and the other 56 tractors have a great look and are solid machines.
Me too T182!
I had a 806 diesel with an Year Around cab i put on it, sold it in 1978 still miss that tractor.
Didn't know they ever had three point system for 1470 case
Ford 9600 was one of my favorites!
Always loved the 6 cylinder Olivers...from to old gasoline tractors to the 1850 and that sweet-sounding diesel
A Massey guy at heart but those old Ford's were good tractors too..looks really cool with duals on too
That MINNEAPOLIS-MOLINE is a beast .
I alwaways remember back in the eighties having a ford 5000 on the farm that colour blue and white got my attention
Russell Petrie I love the old Blue 5000s
Now seeing the 1155 with major wheel slip was sweet. Something we don’t see these days. Same as the Moline. I love to see them digging.
Not many 2wds doing big tillage any more.
Everyone takes a bigger bite than they can handle. Drop a bottom.
Drove a 9600 Ford tractor when I was a kid it was a beast!
I'm curious, I know ford had a powershift on the 6000 but did the 9600 have one
That IH 1066 sure brought back memories. A friend of the family had 4 of them on his farm. 3 cabbed and one standard. They were always impressive to watch work.

The FORD 9600 Is a massive favourite with me, I'm a FORD TRACTOR man through & through, grew up with FORD tractors from a kid in the 60's & 70's whilst working on farms until my early 20's & I still run FORD tractors to this day running my Tree Surgery & Landscaping Business.
I watch all the farming videos, as farming still runs through my veins, keep up the good work bigtractorpower, you keep making um & I'll be watching um.
I like how each brand has there own unique sound. I love the sound of the old Allis Chalmers, But even the Case, And the John Deere have a nice different sound. Then there is the Oliver with the screamin Jimmy. The Minneapolis Moline sounded good as well. All nice tractors, I like all brands. Would like to see more of these videos.
Thank you for your post. I do plan to do more time range videos. They are fun to put together.

I like the look of the 9600 Ford, my neighbor has one with a cab on it, pretty neat. My favorite tractor would probably be an allis chalmers 190XT, can’t beat the turbo charged power of that tractor!!
The 190 XT is a solid plow machine. Great tractor. I had a neighbor growing up whose main tractor was a FORD 9000 with a cab. I hope to get to film more 8000/8600 and 9000/9600 tractors.
A lot of companies tried to challenge the 190 xt and no one came close
Oliver, Steiger, MM and White. The White 2-70 was a clean looking machine.
Ford 9600 by sure. The 9600 was King around the country in the late 70's. Loved the reliability with the company and parts accessibility.
I hope to locate more Ford 8000 to 9600s to film.
I bleed A-C orange because my lawnmower is a Snapper. I very much enjoy the vintage big tractor power. Thank you from Southern Illinois farm country
Big muscle allis for sure
Any tractor from that era is impressive. Growing up that’s all we had we the older equipment from the 60s and 70s and I grew up in the 90s . Still have every single piece along with a couple new Deere’s that’s just been added the last couple years. But you just can’t beat those old tractors. I have a hard time seeing this new stuff ever making it 30 or 40 years. The 9600 is my favorite though
Great video! I grew up on these, my father was a big Massey man but we had Olivers,Cockshuts as well. Back then everyone had atleast one tractor.
When I was a kid my great grandfather had a diesel 830 case comfort king. Loved that tractor first I ever ran.
We have 730 basicaly same thing few little things make her one size smaller not much all the same 730 830 930 we have a 530 comfy case to their both gorgious only thing whith case is their to fast some times like mowing they dont have a slow enough gear as id like great in mud ive ben threw stuff with a 4×2 case 4×4 tractors would get hung up
@@ericlakota6512 I agree with you all the way.
Great video, love all the tractors,but I grew up with Ford, 7700 blue power special ,it was a Cadillac to me , in its day,lol, how I miss the old days
Very cool tractor. I have the sales literature on that one. It came with chrome trim and chrome stack I think.
@@bigtractorpower that's so cool , if I ever found a nice one ,I would buy it probably, lol.
In 1971 Dad bought a new Ford 4000, that has been my favorite tractor every since.
4000 su was the tractor
Growing up we had a Ford 9600 with a cab I got to spend a lot of time in that tractor and dont ever remember not liking it, I think it was 150 hp great engine and just a very nice all around tractor!
Gotta be Massey Ferguson and Ford for me the best .
I'm an old school farmer. I remember plowing tobacco with mules. So all the tractors you showed are awesome . I loved them all. But my four favorite John Deere, Ford, international. Massey Ferguson. Oh yes and Case . I kinda liked David brown to. I remember operating one for a farmer I think it was pushing about 70 to 80 horses. It was a nice tractor . Good power. 😄👍
Love the Ford 9600. At one point between two neighbors they had 3 of them.
Some of my other favorites case 2590, Ford tw-15 series ll, IH 66 and 86 series, and cast iron grill Oliver's and Whites.
A farmer I knew in the70's had a 2255 Oliver with V8. Never got to run it but was awesome to look at and as a teenager dream of running
My family farmed with Massey Ferguson and I still think they are great tractors in the modern era as well. Thanks for your videos!!
Doesn't matter what colour or brand, i like all of these tractors. These big machines from this era are just so good looking 😎
Case traction king look to be fun.
My favorite from this time was 4230jd. We had 3 of them. 2 quads 1 powershift. I remember the powershift slipped a lot because my dad use to yell about it all time after we bought it used with 2500hr on it.
Quad With partial was best during this time.IMO
Now the full powershift in 4250 was a different animal. Very good. They must have figured clutches were not way to go.
That Massey's got tons more power than traction, those rear wheels look like a rototiller!
That field had been plowed up 6 times in two days during a plowing demonstration.
I like the steiger
We used to run a 9600. What a beast. Great power and brakes.
Growing up during the 60's and early 70's on a small family farm in North Dakota. I always had great affection for the Minneapolis Moline tractors, we never owned one but I always thought they sounded great when working a field. PRAIRIE GOLD! I find the old farm equipment much more interesting.
Molines are cool tractors. I like the G-1000 Vista and G-1355 allot.
The Ford 9600 was a great tractor. Simple, comfortable operation, full day's work on a tank of fuel, plenty of room on the platform to move around. Olivers with the Detroit diesel were screamers and just uncomfortable to run. Others I never ran. My FIL had an 1155 and I never liked it. My BIL had a JD and it was reliable but the 9600 was the best of the lot in all respects. Just a tough, well built machine.
What a video, great old big iron, love that 9600, beautiful video, the first 50 seconds take me back to 1976
The 9600 was a nice find this fall. I was out filming a Lexion and this 9600 was at work across the road.
@@bigtractorpower Thanks for stopping and film that beauty
Thanks for that Oliver plow at the start. My brother and I used to fight over who got to use it over the John Deere that always plugged up in stalks. We grew up mostly JD people but the Oliver plow always was fought over!
I ran an Oliver 1950-T just like the one in the video. Was one of my favorite tractors!
My uncle used to own a Ford 9600 ... As a kid I would spend hundreds of hours on it ploughing and cultivating fields
My neighbor still has one and it still runs good
I have a Ford 7600 ... Used to be my grandfather's and still runs beautifully despite its age
Greetings from South Africa 😀👍
The Ford was my favourite back then.
Mine as well they paid my salary I worked in research at Basildon Essex uk for 30 + years
Gordon Exmouth UK
Like seeing all the older equipment
Big Bud!! What a Tractor 🚜
😁👍👍
Down here in Central Alabama. Everyone was farming with high horsepower Ford's for high horsepower tractors till the mid 90's. Then everyone went to John Deere and Case.
Devon Love I agree. Mississippi boy here
Love seeing the old Oliver implements at work
Deffinately Case 1030 Comfort King. Grew up with a 60's version(the older style with the round lights up front) Factory cab, 18.4/38 rears fluid filled, with gigantic donut weights bolted on the inside of the rim, 11x16 tri rib fronts, filled with fluid. Dual hyd remotes, 3 point, 540 pto... all on a Wheatland(western special). That thing was rated for 100HP at 1600 rpm, but full throttle was well over 2 grand. That tractor could pull WAY over it's class, between the weights and fluid. That was our big tractor growing up, I loved everything about it.
BTP, would love to see a video of one of these. Would like to see a 1570 working hard too, that was the big boy in the 70's.
Im 32 years old. Grew up on a Dairy farm. This video was memory lane.
Great to hear. Thank you for watching.
Steve Vlietstra Thank You for posting! God Bless
Grew up on a White 2-105. Had a four bottom roll over plow. 21 foot tandem disk and a 12 foot flail
Ford 9600, Allis 210, Oliver 1950 and MM. They have classic style.
Man, that 1950-T was just rockin' it! If you went up 10 horses you got the heavy, low slung, mellow 2050, but the T just ripped! It had Attitude!
Yes it was! And for such a small engine and to not be blowing smoke!
I appreciate the effort that goes into these videos. My favorite ride in the early 1970s was the 1206 Farmall. I spent prom night plowing on one. : )
Hahaha...Awesome and good for you !
I am right with ya 06 series, 56 series, 66 series, 68 series
Plowing the field? Yeah or the special 7 inch thrust plow
@@dafarmer3721 Both. : )
gone rydin hell yeah I’ve enjoyed some rough rides doing some field finishing
I like many tractors. See a nicely restored Allis Chalmers is always a head turner for me.
Love the Ford, Oliver not bad also. 👍👍👍🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
👍👍
IH 856 was our top dog when I was young. Still running too!
Love the 70 series Case tractors. Love the design and power
We had a 770 case. So much nicer than the 730 it replaced
Oliver 1550 first tractor that I ever drove! But really enjoy them all from this time period
1972 4320 with John Deere cab factory air. May. 1972. With a 12 row side dressing rig. We had two one for Dad one for me from post holes to planting to dragging roads. 8000 plus hrs. Till 2001 one clutch. For repairs. Not bad huh? 7520s the bigger Deere four wheel drive did heavy work most pretty good tractors. Thanks for the memories.
My favorite tractor when was on the farm was the case 1175. Enjoyed that machine. Easy to operate and was a joy to drive. Enjoy watching your videos keep up the good work.
Didnt know much about these models of Fords before i moved to Canada (9600, 9700) as we didnt have them in Scotland, our Hp came in smaller packages, TW force 2 and 3 were my dream tractors with an 8210 (all with the Super Q cab) in there for wide use of work. we didnt get many of the Stieger Fords where we were either. But in the bigger 4wd of that era i'd have to go Versatile because A. i'm in Manitoba and B. they were easy to work on and "farmer fix" friendly.
Had a few of these but my all time fav is the Versatile !
😁👍👍
my 1970 John Deere 4020 all time favorite...
😁👍👍
9600 & 9700 were great tractors. You could turn them up a lot.
I like finding Ford tractors to film.
bigtractorpower I grew up on the old Fords. I have my own place now and have bought a 5000 and 7600 row crop. I use them more than my Challenger 535 with a cab hahaha. Great machines and very reliable.
We run a 4610,5610, 2 7710s and our biggest tractor a 9700 Ford.
John Deer 4020
You could the 8600 also
This is Robert- MF 1135 & JD 4020 were the ones I drove mostly in tillage operations.
Both good tractor. I hope to find an 1135 to film sometime.
Used to have white 2-70 traded that in for a 2 -105 still running today along with a 7040 Allis. 2- 105 probably my favorite. Always liked the looks of black stripe 66 series ih s
I just bought a 2-105. Such a nice haying tractor. Always have the right gear
Love the memories. THANKS. - Dean from Minnesota
PS~ It was really cool to hear the sounds of the different tractors as well as see the design of the different BIG STEEL... tractors of Today in the 21st-century are so different… I really loved the sound of the Oliver. I know probably many people won't agree with me but it did have a unique sound. If my memory serves me correctly they gave it a nickname but I can't recall it at this point. It was a number of them when they were pulling a plow or the desk through the field and they had to Shift gears, you could really appreciate The Wonderful sound of the engine, as it bared down to get through that rich Iowa soil ❣️
My experience was from the 50-60s so these were all newer for me. I was raised on Allis-Chalmers WD45 and D17. Always liked the Massey Fergusons though.
Allis Chalmers 👍
That Ford 9600 is the baddest looking tractor ever made , my great uncle had one . I’d ride with him ever chance I could as a child
I am a John Deere fan at heart but I love the international 1066 we have one on our farm and it is my favorite tractor out of all the newer John Deere’s that we have I love when I get the chance to run the 1066
I grew up running a '74 1066 my dad bought new. Great tractor
I may be a little bias but I love the Ford 800 and 5000 and alis Chalmers d17 I grew up using
My favorite was the Farmall 806. This was my first diesel tractor to operate. A real workhorse.
imgone52. 👍
Love the video! Seeing the Ford was really great and it's a true classic. I would like to see a J.I. Case 930 in operation. I grew up with the 30 series and now looking to get one for restoration.
The 1030 and 930 are high on my wish list to film. I just have to find them in the field. I have a video of Case tractors plowing at ruclips.net/video/qsw5rQCWS_U/видео.html
BTP I'll keep on the lookout for the vaunted 30 series Case for you.
ford and big bud
You can tell the Steiger has a Screamin Jimmy!
Ford made one hell of a tractor. New Holland nowadays have great looking designs, but they over complicate their electronics systems making them impossible to work on and unreliable as heck.
So true I don't like new Holland
As a kid we farmed 900 acres with only a pair of 656 IH's, a 460 IH and a 255 MF (excluding the MF combine and other things). We got the jobs done with these tractors and without dual wheels. This was in the 70's ... great years!
I grew up on ACs, but I like all kinds of different brands. I like to hear the IHs and Olivers run. If I had to pick one out of these, of course I’m going with the Allis 210😁
U
Almost impossible to beat the 210
In the years of the 80s I was on a David Brown at 60hp. Anything over 100hp was impressive. Ford 9700(TW20) at 160hp kicked ass. John Deere was always my favourite 3140. in New Zealand.
My favorite ia the John Deere 5020, it is a real smooth dream.
Loved seeing all of those tractors. The Steigers and the Internationals are fun to see for us.
Thank you BTP for a great video my favorite tractor is 1969 John Deere 4520 the one I drove a few years ago had a hiniker 1300 cab take care and God Bless
All tractors are good, but i’m in love with 70’ Fiat tractors.
That ford is awesome!!!!!👍
My favorites are the White , the Allis Chalmers, and the Case. Also my 3 favorite tractors from the 60's are Farmall 404 , case 430 and the prototype David Brown auto drive. My 70's favorites were IH 384 , Case 970 and Allis Chalmers 175
Really enjoy all your videos, but was really excited to see my 4320 risking at Half century of progress show 2019 made it in your video Thanks.
Oliver and Massey Ferguson .best year's of my life also.
Great tractor brands.
Like the Case Agri Kings too... They were sharply styled IMO...
