    Those Ford tractors were tough, I have worked most of these tractors and owned the 5000 and 6000 series models during my farming day's.

    When I was a kid I just loved hunting birds after the old corn pickers went through, there always seemed to be corn in the ground and birds every where,, pure heaven for a young boy and his dog
  • Love to see the older equipment running and love to see Ford mounted pickers on Ford tractors, Something I haven't seen in many many years. Keep up the great work and video's love to see these in action ! Bandit

    Enjoyed hearing the 6000..Only one I ever saw operating belonged to the state highway dept. and they had a Motrim on it..dads buddy had a 900 with mounted 2 row but we ended up with a new Idea pull type

    I worked at a Ford tractor dealership in the mid 1970's, and the head mechanic there said the 6000's were way ahead of their time.

    Love the snappy sound from those Ford 4 cylinders

    Looking good John. That's some heavy corn for them old pickers.
  • Thanks. Nice video. Would have enjoyed running those machines. Too bad that we allowed them to run the small farmer out .

    What a great video of wonderful old equipment in action. Those Fords sure were pretty, weren't they?
  • Enjoyed the video! Those ford mounted pickers were popular in my area. Appreciated seeing different views of the picker since I am working on a 1/64 model of a 602 on a 901

    We had 2 M Farmall’s with Mounted pickers. That 4200 would be like driving a Cadillac compared to them!

    I am drooling!! And watching for the fifth time. I am dying to find a 4/5200 and a 602 picker. Was there ever a 602 with a sheller?
