I can remember watching this as a little kid. We did not have AC equipment then but the local dealer handled other lines that we did own. So I can remember going to the open house. My Grand Father came an got me out of school for lunch and the film. It was the first "film" I ever saw other than TV shows. I would have been 6-7 years old.
A life long friend of my Grand Father had a diesel WD-45. They traded work back and forth. That WD-45 was quite the tractor with a three bottom plow. Did a really nice job. He also had the mounted corn picker for it like the one shown in the film. The corn passed under the rear axle. Not really a very good husking picker. Also terrible in wet fall. With the picker running under the axle you had very little ground clearance.
Nice journey back to my youth.
