[@joemclaughlin995]

A piece of iconic farming history!Still looks fresh today.Modern tractors have no soul.

[@bigtractorpower]

This is a well cared for 4890. This farm has a nice line up of Case and Case IH tractors.

[@michaelstark703]

Now that sounds like a tractor! Always liked the looks of that model Case.

[@garyzamins5286]

NOW THATS ONE BEAUTIFUL TRACTOR!!!!...that thing looks mint....I’ve been following you for quite some time and this is by far my favorite video..tell the owner to take care of her..she’s a beaut!!!!!

[@larrybreneman3613]

Wow, love that old iron

[@igagri4817]

One of the best sounding tractors you've ever filmed 👌

[@philipingram1667]

Nice to see the old Case rigid frames running - they were plentiful in the San Joaquin Valley in CA in the 70s and 80s. I had a dealer in Santa Maria CA that owned the 4WD market as they sold 4890.4894s with Wilcox rollover plows - 5 - 18s going 24 inches deep and it would walk them easily in the sandy muck soil (vegetables) and still turn around in the short headlands. Excellent video - the throaty rumble of the straight pipe brings me back as well but I don't know if I would want to listen it all day ..

[@oldben1800]

my grandpa and dad have 3 of em, one of these, fav tractor

[@kevinferguson4163]

My friend still farms with one of these. They are good power. I like running it. It has a straight pipe a sound great. Keep the videos coming love the older equipment.

[@AgiDaKinG]

Did you graduate from school?

[@shawnjames6714]

Any relation to Massey?

[@100Ronster]

40 years later and still a beast.

[@Greyhorse15]

I remember growing up and riding in both the 2470 and 4890 my dad and uncle used on the farm. The memories just start flooding. 👍🏻

[@PhiliciaHall]

Awesome!! Long live JI Case. Thats all we ran on the farm when I was a kid. 1030 comfort King, 2290 and 2590

[@malcolmmeer9761]

2590 was the only brand new tractor I ever bought. I thought I was in high clover running it

[@AndreiTupolev]

I think that's best sounding straight six Scania I've heard. A straight through pipe really makes a difference

[@davidzeinstra5053]

Love those units. Raw Horsies with that Scania. Some of the funnest silage packers we owned

[@jamesbarbour8400]

Fantastic piece of old school iron, still getting the job done. That ground sure is dry !

[@mfreund15448]

Love the solid frame Case tractors.

[@wayneh8767]

That 4890 is in great condition 👌

[@douglaslaschkewitsch6032]

That is a BEAUTIFUL tractor!

[@bigtractorpower]

CASE made some stand outs. The 4890 was a monster in its day.

[@stevenbaes8228]

Those J.I.Case tractors were legendary with their huge displacement engines. They were beasts then and still are today.

[@Northern_Farmer]

That Scania with the straight pipe sounds awesome!!!

[@jeffschwering1300]

Always loved the looks & sound of those Case 4wd tractors

[@iggy9649]

Back in the day I put a lot of hours in the seat of the 4890, what a great tractor !!

[@ZekenStreak]

My favourite models from case & all of them are in outstanding shape. Great vid BTP. Take care & stay safe. Cheers

[@markreetz1001]

That is a roaring monster. Great video!

[@kennyspry5189]

My Uncle Farmed Back in the 70's to mid 90's and He Owned too CASE Duel Tires Tractors One a 2470 and the other a 2870 plus He had too more CASE a 970 and a 830 used for planting l Love The Solid Frame CASE TRACTORS They Rank in the Top 5 BEST Tractors EVER Made in My Opinion AWESOME VIDEO!!!!

[@SimonKL11]

This tractor is a good looking beast👍😉 it pulls the implement like a champ and it sounds great😁👍 Well done👍

[@stephenbontrager5894]

Those were always a good looking machine and that straight pipe makes it sound awesome.

[@shyfarmboya]

Hate the straight pipe.

[@oldben1800]

best sounding tractor ever made imo

[@harrisongwin6859]

We got one of these beasts...such a cool sound, love the way it turns...so fun

[@jankotze1959]

Beautiful tractor, nice engine sound as well

[@ThePartsFarm]

Just bought a 2470 and can’t wait to use her!

[@stevebrygadyr1675]

I had a 2670 that I bought sight unseen in 2009 for $6,900.00. It had 1000 hr on the re-built engine and ran like a top. Just touch the key and it was running. I only used it for snow plowing my large acreage with a 1/4 mile long driveway. The blade I mounted was an old school steel funnel type off of a ‘70s highway plow truck and I built all the mounting brackets myself, bought 2 hydraulic cylinders and hoses, and it was ready for snow. Man, did that tractor ever push snow, drifts the height of the hood a couple of times. Sold it in 2014 for $7,500.00 with the plow once we moved to town. Sure do miss ‘er!

[@georgegozelski7330]

Absolutely the best 4 wheel drive tractors.........the rigid frame, crab steer seriously outperformed all the articulated tractors of the day! I would suspect the big Claas tractors are very similar!

[@daniellaubacher8591]

I was a young baby in a carrier riding on a Case 4490 when I was a baby. I remember it had like almost a back seat. It was for storage but just good memories. Miss that tractor.

[@bigtractorpower]

Great memory. The first tractor I ever got to ride on was a Case 2470. I was 5 and remember sitting behind the seat as the tractor was plowing.

[@everythingoutdoors7544]

Just a great looking tractor. I dont remember the exact model number but my cousin had one of these as their big "workhorse" back in the day.....brings back some cool memories. Love this channel....thanks for making these videos....👍

[@guycharlebois3342]

Hi there, my father purchased the first J.I Case 2870 Traction King with a 6x22 on land plow from Marleau Garage Ltd in St-Bernardin Ontario in fall 1977. It was the first one sold in the area. I still have the ad from the local newspaper when he purchased it.

[@brianbradshaw1566]

That 4890 has a nice sound ! 👍🏻

[@conniedexter7666]

That is a beautiful rig

[@TravisTheDriver]

You did a good job editing out the sound of the wind in this video. It looked really windy out there by the way the leaves was blowing across the field. Keep up the good work.

[@bigtractorpower]

40 mph wind. Bill who filmed this video parked his truck in the field and used it as a wind barrier to film behind.

[@donaldthomas5852]

I remember disking when the wind was blowing in the 1970's Open station on a 285 Massey Ferguson pulling a 12 ft. disc . By the end of the day your ears nose would be full of dirt. Oh and your lungs. Dad never would buy a cab tractor. Today I have two cab tractors 1990 Massey Ferguson 3070 and 2004 John Deere 5320 and one small tractor open station IMT 539. Great video Case is one of my favorites.

[@bigtractorpower]

The cab makes a big difference. Open station tractors have a great look. Thank you for sharing.

[@briandavidson7078]

Awesome tractor!!!

[@roryweber817]

That’s a pretty good looking tractor

[@bigtractorpower]

The Traction King 4wds are stand outs.

[@nellsonstout7001]

Yeah baby! Watching the spirit of 76 panther 2 video on my tv and this pops up

[@bigtractorpower]

👍👍

[@nellsonstout7001]

bigtractorpower is this the tractor you filmed at rantoul awhile back and interviewed the owner of?

[@EDBZ28]

I realize this is an old post, but I'm wondering if you found this tractor bc you heard all the way from western KY?? Wow... what an animal. I didn't like these as a kid growing up in the 80's, but I certainly love them now...especially this HOSS. AWESOME sound and condition.

[@bigtractorpower]

It’s a cool tractor. I grew up around CASE 4wds. First tractor I got to ride in was a 2470 Traction King. I first filmed this Tractor at the 2017 have century progress show in Rantoul Illinois. It was on display and the owner drove it around to show the crab steer function. It was great to see it working ground.

[@EDBZ28]

@@bigtractorpowervery cool 👍🏻👍🏻

[@straightpipeacres6365]

Now there is a mint old girl!!!! We had a 4894 with a 16ft 6 way degleman blade on it. Tough tough tough machine till it burnt to the ground!!

[@MrGeroth]

Love that straight pipe.

[@garybarrett6581]

just got to love old school big muscle tractors new enought to get a good cab and old enough to not have all the computer stuff and l thing that tractor has a good owner and takes good care of it!! l be watchin!

[@littlerougue]

before the merger Case and IH had some cool stuff going on

[@andrewstich7117]

Very good video thanks for your time and hard work to do the video

[@kennytoler6485]

Awesome sound!! Love the old school stuff

[@vanilakung7563]

Former Scania employee and Saab enthusiast. Technicly Saab had nothing to do with this engine, Scania developed this from the start "great engine thou". Also love when people say its a bad engine because they have a hard time to find parts for it, For me its a phone call away and maeby 2-3 days shipping.

[@ChevyConQueso]

Most people in the United States (and Canada) haven't even heard of Scania, which makes it tougher to get anything in time, especially with narrow planting windows. SAAB is definitely not a popular brand either. For the Europeans I imagine that's a much different story. I saw lots of Scania power there. Of course, finding 40 year old machine parts has probably gotten a little more difficult there too, but 3 days isn't bad. Bad engine? No. Bad choice for some farmers over another brand? Absolutely. They sure do sound sweet though with a straight pipe.

[@user-snowman5]

Good ole case love them tractors

[@neilstuarr2278]

They were awesome

[@bigtractorpower]

Thank you for watching.

[@rickyjohnson4767]

Awesome video. I like 4wd tractor's. I've seen some of your videos they're all good I'm I live in Jackson tn. I'm a retired truck driver.

[@basketcase346]

Spent a lot of time as a kid driving our 4690, we only sold it about 8 years ago with less than 7000hrs to change over to a Cat Challenger 55. Both very rare machines in our area but bring some great manoeuvrability for sugar cane row crop work

[@OhioAgVideos]

Nice Video. Really enjoying the daily uploads!

[@markward6076]

Good looking tractors 🚜👌

[@gman7640]

Now that is a real man's tractor !!!

[@SestoElomenTo11]

That's a beauty!

[@malcolmmeer9761]

To add to a previous comment. Today I found a 4890 and am bringing it home tomorrow

[@bigtractorpower]

Congratulations. Very nice.

[@mrourcanada8964]

That’s awesome it’s still working in the fields to this day and there’s nothing like a nice articulated tractor

[@lewisgeyer1440]

Reminds me of the 4-wheel-drive MRS tractor an area farmer had where I grew up. It also had four-wheel steering.

[@westrotter7847]

Built for back in the day farming !! Easy to own . No computers !!!!!

[@luisnunes7933]

Superb oldie!

[@tomholley5464]

We had a 930 , a 1070 ,2290 and a 4890 and we pulled IH plows and Alis Chalmers offset disc and IH planters

[@bigtractorpower]

Very nice line up.

[@kylekincaid9304]

One of your best!

[@pinesedgefarm1155]

The 674 sure is a nice sounding engine.

[@brianviertel3047]

Learned to drive a 2470 on our family farm in Missouri.

[@1DirtyMutt]

Looks like damn near new rubber...that was an investment in itself! The straight pipe sounds cool in a 12 minute video...that noise level gets annoying when you’re sitting in the cab for 5+ hours and can hear yourself think...

[@charlesfolkes8965]

Soo I just looked this video because ole pop just bought a JI Case 4890 for tillage and to run the grain cart but mainly tillage this this sounds amazing with straight pipe maybe I can kinda sneak one on it

[@bigtractorpower]

Very nice on the 4890 buy. They are handy tractors.

[@whit4275]

I was born & raised JD but always had a thing for the orange & white Case tractors, lol.

[@bigtractorpower]

😁👍

[@alspeers6931]

My research has shown that the Scania motor was very respected and super durable according to European sources, a strong looking machine

[@bigtractorpower]

I have never heard a complaint about a Scania engine.

[@ScottPykare]

Another awesome video Jason. Good seeing another older 4wd still going strong👍We had a 34' Case IH 330 turbo disc but we now run a 30' John Deere 2660VT. GO BTP 💪💪

[@tonymckeage1028]

Great Old Iron, I was going to comment that it was rare, but you said over 2000 produced, I guess this was before the Versatile & Stieger based models began to dominate the market and IH had opted for Stieger, Thanks, great viewing

[@poorfatman5317]

❤cool video 👍

[@johnsachar5777]

We run a pair of 4894's and a 2594. One has a straight pipe the other a muffler. The one with the muffler sounds much better, throaty and rich sound. Our oher tractors include 4-180 WHITE repowered with a DT 466 AND a 2090 JI case. All really good older iron.

[@dingui875]

Trop cool cette gamme !!!

[@leesteele9290]

Our old 2690 isn't as nice as these but still gets pretty regular use disking and harrowgating newly cleared ground and field boundaries ! Solid old tractor , not as comfortable as newer but good return to my roots when I run it !!!!

[@leesteele9290]

Should be 4690

[@bigtractorpower]

😁👍👍. The 90 series were good sellers for Case.

[@lectriclicks]

We had one of these beasts when we farmed. Never gave us problems. Just don’t forget the hand brake on. You only realize from 3rd gear 2nd split! A true tough workhorse!!💪💪

[@bigtractorpower]

Case 4wds are neat machines. The first tractor I ever got to ride on was a 2470 Traction King.

[@williamgreenway8958]

The 2870 was the tractor I drove when I was a farmhand ,it pulled a 330 , 30` John Deere disk with 22" solid blades, 25` John Deere Do-all over fresh boke ground ,W&A ripper hipper (8 tine ripper with a 8 row better it was all made together) this one would run only 15 MPH on the highway .It was slow on the road was a Hoss in the field ! Awe yea with the single wide Firestone rice&cane tires .

[@JS-1983]

Beautiful tractor with great sounding engine 😎 I have driven few Scania trucks with 11-liter engine and they sound pretty similar with straight pipe 😀 Would be nice to see video of Case 4994 with 14-litre Scania v8...

[@bigtractorpower]

That’s neat. We do not have Scania trucks in the United States. It would be neat to see and hear on of those trucks in action. The 4994 is big on my wish list to film. There were under 200 built and several parked in the weeds today. I hope to find a good one to film.

[@JS-1983]

@@bigtractorpower Scania is one of most popular truck brands sold in Finland. Here's one example from Finland 80's Scania 142 with 14-litre V8 with open exhaust (weight 60000 kg) I think it's basically same engine than 4994's have. That sound is just so awesome 😄 kzbin.info/www/bejne/lYXNgXypgJeNbZo

Stay tuned for a 1030 and 1370 working in the same field.

[@deeredrengen]

Why full throttle? Why not a gear Up and Down in rpm? Less noise in cabine, and less fuel consumption, i think
