jic · Feb 21, 2013

what was your first Case equipment when you started farming? mine was a dc, 970, 5 bottom plow, 15 ft disk, 6 row cult, and 960 combine. i was a junior in high school 1974. same year i stared to work at Case Power and Equipment (part time, after school and saturdays)

My first Case equipment was purchased just in the last 2 years. I bought a 1977 Case 1070 tractor last September and I bought a Case 4-14's moldboard plow from another farmer/coworker of mine. Both of them work great for me. Here is a couple of pics.

My first was a VAC and a 2 row cult. Purchased them in 1975, $250 for the VAC, $50 for the cult. Also bought a 80 IHC pto combine that year for $80. I still have the tractor and cult, Rod.

I haven't started farming yet, but my first Case was a 1950 D. I plan on buying some land eventually....

The first Case equpt. I bought to start farming with was a 1937 CC with a 2 row cultivator. Soon after I bought a Case Centinial 2x16" plow. That got me going! Paid $ 100 for the CC 7 & culit. Plow was $ 50 and on useable rubber tires. clint

No sir. Those little critters like to be the center of attention! Or maybe I feed them too good that they follow me everywhere. LOL

Hope this counts. I started farming with dad riding on the tool box in front of the steering wheel on the CC Case around 5 years old. Remember mom chewing dad out cause somewhere sitting there got grease on my pants leg.

First one was a VAC that I bought from my uncle for $50 when I was 14, it was locked up and had a cracked head. Took me about 6 month to get it running.

I started driving my Dad's 1950 VA Case tractor when I was about 6, while dad and older brothers thru bales of hay on the rack. My first tractor when I started farming was a 430 Case Triple- randge, gas. Bruce

When I was about 13 went to "help" my uncle Bob he was plowing wheat stubble and needed a tractor driver. He was supposed to be mowing hay while I polwed so we could ble in a coupe days but indtaed while I plowed he layed down in the fench row and slept all afternoon. It was good experiance anyway, Kenny.
