Flashback when you were dicking around with the points..... lol. I worked on my Ford 860, in the field, for over a week, until I finally replaced the "new" condenser. Yep, it was bad... Got it running, drove it to the barn... and upgraded to Electronic Ignition. Best trade-up ever. I get it: farming with antiques. Thanks for sharing!

My dad had a couple 55’s years ago. Nice combine in their day! I was glad to hear yours run! Enjoyed not only your video but also your humor.

This series of JD combines couldn't be beat for simplicity and reliability. You can still get a lot of parts for them. I've spent many hours on 95s over the years. The old engine has the familiar sound like a 95.

Man you’re great I drive a truck and have been through Kansas Nebraska Oklahoma Missouri Iowa all the rest no telling how many of these I’ve seen sitting and I’ve heard the it ran when we parked it crap before but my family has a dairy farm stocker cows quarter horses ect and we never parked anything running it got sold what a sense of accomplishment

Like your humour. The getting something running that hasnt ran in a long time and left for dead.i understand the feeling.the self pride of makeing something run again.i do the same thing with snowmobiles and qauds and vechiles

My first farming accident was on a JD 45 combine at age of 4. Nothing 180 plus stitches & about a month in hospital couldn't fix. Nice video!
