[storminnormanz]

@maxamo007 actually no, its just a picker it still would have to be shelled

[SmokinDodge]

The dis-likes for the video must be Oliver haters. I guess everyone can't own the a tractor that is the right shade of green. ;)

[TheDavidpayne]

@SmokinDodge nope i dis likes because he asked to like it ! bad thing to do :)

[KB3GZW]

How long would you reckon it took you to harvest the half acre of corn?

[2LateIWon]

That's waht is so good about the older tractors they run for ever!!! I have a 1950 Ford 8N I do brush hogging with. They are waht I call stupid simple. Actually I made a vid of a side exhaust I did for it this weekend if you want to check that out. It's loud now LOL Hot rod tractor ☺☺☺

[Oliver66FarmBoy]

Thats not a 70, Its a 77. A 70 only had about 20 drawbar horsepower, while a 77 which repalced the 70 had about 35 drawbar horsepower.

[slowride55]

does your truck have a 350?

[ChuckE2009]

@slowride55

305

[slowride55]

@ChuckE2009 either way its a beast :-)

[slowride55]

[vidman008]

Very Nice Corn Video.... That was really Cool.. That old Ford made me think of Justin out for a Sunday drive..

[TractorWorld]

SWEET!

[testa375L]

COOL WHAT THE PTO RATEING ON THAT PICKER CAN IT WORK ON A KUBOTA L3240 TRACTORS

[ChuckE2009]

@testa375L

I dont know what it is, and no one seems quite sure. Phil has a farmall H that he tried with the picker a year or two ago, and it barely had enough power to run it. This oliver is way more powerful, and it has power to spare. Farmall H pto hp: 23 or so, oliver 70 pto hp: 37 or so.

So, somewhere between those two, like farmall M sized or bigger.

[Conrail6370]

ChuckE2009 , Chuck, the H is alot older then at Oliver too, That would explain why it didn't work well. the H's were built in the 1930's and that Oliver was built in the 1950's.

@Conrail6370 farmal H built from 39 to 53 and oliver 77 built 48 to 54

@testa375L on oliver 70 with a gas engine has 30 horse at the PTO

[gregatron5000]

@testa375L If a Oliver 77 is pulling it, the Nebraska test PTO horsepower on the gasoline model was 33 hp. A Farmall H has around 23 hp, a Farmall M is stronger than an Oliver 77, but I would rather pull that corn picker with a 77, it has an independent PTO.

A Kubota L3240 has 30+ horsepower though, so I think you should be good.
