Jubilee film


I have watched it a couple times before. Video like that is a good place to see the proper paint scheme for things like starter, generator carb and others.
 
That is a great video!

Three things I noticed.

1-the announcer called it the "Golden Jubillee Model"
2-pulling the plow you can tell then were trying to work it hard s there was lots of wheel spin.
3-they sure seemed to drive fast... ;)

Great film, I have a Jube and I love it. I was born in 53 so I have an emotional attachment to the tractor. It is completely original ( 6 volt pos grd) and it is my favorite tractor. It reminds me of a time in America when a guy who built was just as proud of a guy who bought. Thanks for posting.

Another thing I noticed... near the very beginning the narrator said something like "a symbol of 50 years of Ford interest in applying mechanized power to the problems of farm work."
Ford didn't start selling tractor until 1917, so they had only been "applying mechanized power to the problems of farm work" for about 36 years when the film was made.

Yes, but their cars and trucks were being used on the farms since the beginning of the model T.
 
A very interesting film. Thanks so very much! What I really noticed was the installation of a remote valve. Don't think I have ever seen one quite like the one shown in the film. Are there any exactly like that one around?
 
My dad was parts/service manager for a Farmall
dealership in the early 1950's. One of the old
guys that knew him then said that some of the
local tractor dealers would invite farmers to a
free barbecue supper every fall (when the tobacco
was sold and the farmers had cash) and show 16mm
films similar to this one after the meal promoting
the latest and greatest models in their respective
lines.
Bet they sold a lot of equipment that way.
Looking at the film got me in the mood and I got
my 641 out this afternoon(65 degrees today) and
rode around my farm. When I was getting ready to
get on the road to the house, a local fellow came
by on an early 70's gleaner with a soybean head on
it.If someone would have gotten a picture of the
641 and the Gleaner, you would have sworn it was
the early 70's. Long time ago...

never saw one of that style on a NAA like the one running that cylinder.
wish I could find one too.



pretty funny at the 4:40 mark or so
Looks like even Ford agrees with all of us, when
we tell people to pass on the N's and go for a NAA or later to get live hydraulic power.
"annoying gear shifting manipulations" LOL
 
Very cool! Noticed the hy-trol knob on the hydro pump. Don"t think mine has that. Broken off maybe? Also noticed the brake locking lever.(Also don"t have!)and the lever for the "live PTO" attachment. Also don"t have. Was that standard on the Jubilee?? Broke off maybe?
