How about some plow day pics?

billonthefarm · Jan 23, 2022

Still make time to do some plowing, We have graduated to more power and bigger plows. Much bigger.

The 1976 1566 is pulling a 735 6 bottom. The 1975 1566 with the YAR cab is pulling a 720 6-18s and the 1066 is a 1975 pulling a 720 5-16s. Thats a neighbor driving it. Different plow days I take different tractors. We plowed clear into December this fall. Plowed 3 weekends this fall and 2 last spring. About 320 acres. Most days there were 4-6 of us running.

My 966 looks just like your 1566. Those tractors really steer smooth and easy. Built to drive to the field, throw into gear, and drive all day. Not designed to be handy as a loader yard type tractor

Great pics, looks like a good time, really like the 1566 with the year around cab.

My late son and I at our club plowday 2016. Probably the only time 2 Masseys plowed a field at the same time in Lavaca County Texas.

I don't have a pic of them plowing but up in the yard afterwards. Picture is from 2019. My brother's Oliver 1950 with an Oliver 6-18 and an Oliver 4-16 on my JD 2955. And a Case 5-16 on my JD 7810. I usually pull the 4 bottom with my Oliver 880 but it was too wet and I couldn't get enough traction. We had 2 other tractors plowing with us that day.

My 60s on a plow day

Mark Poss · Jan 23, 2022

Sweet looking 60 standard

casecollectorsc · Jan 23, 2022

My plow day was trying out a plow I bought and using a pony drill the way I did when I started farming in 1968.

Tell me about the 60 crawler, is that custom made or did they make them.

muleman51 · Jan 23, 2022

And the 60 mfd. You have unique tractors.

A couple pictures from 2020 plow day, usually have about a dozen old tractors show up. Cancelled for 2021 because of the wet fall.

Plow day at Mike Kalsem's in Huxley, Ia.

South of Mt Pleasant, Ia. Too overcast to get any good pictures

The grandkids came to the show in Geneseo, Ill. while I was plowing there

I made a bracket and put a nnalert 2024 The Revenge Tour flag on the plow, LOTS of pictures and complements on the flag.
Finished the season plowing my neighbors garden

Tim built both tractors in his shop.

Butch(OH) · Jan 24, 2022

Look at that nice straight furrow! The plow days I have attended around here the furrow looks like somebody was chasing a cow across the field with the plow in the ground, and the ends look even worse.

Cool 60 where did the front axle come from?

big tee · Jan 24, 2022

I'll hit the like button but I'm afraid it will still go--POOF---Tee

tim s · Jan 24, 2022

Yes, I built them here in my shop, the crawler final drives and track frames are off a 2010,, I made the crawler 10 years ago.. The MFWD was made here about 6 years ago, I made the transfer case from scratch,, the front axle is off a Long 445,,I needed an off-set differential. I will share some build pics for those of you that have not seen them yet. You can get on You Tube and enter Tim Sweeney's John Deere 60s and see them working..they are a lot of fun.

big tee · Jan 24, 2022
