If I won a big lottery I'd be buying this tractor along with many others. That tractor looks so much better than the stuff today...plus NO DEF. As a retired heavy equipment operator, there's nothing better than operating BIG HORSEPOWER equipment.

I drove one, 4890, for a farming operation in the late 70s and loved every minute of it . With the eight tires and narrow roads , it was a real mailbox killer .

That tractor looks great. I prefer the white and black over the ih red. I think you already know about my 4694 and 4994 tractors lol

This particular tractor seems to be in excellent condition for its age.

That’s a neat classic, the crab walking is neat.

I think it looks better in the white! When we grew up in the 80’s Case 930 was the big Horse on the farm! They were good tractors!

I was born & raised green (Even worked for them) but the Case 2594 & 4894 are my favorites!

Had a 4690 worked near me in the 80s in the uk.Farmer had it brand new.Replaced it with a black and red 4694.Loved watching them work.wish he still had them instead of the two challengers they run now.

Dad bought ours new 9/12/85 the same day my little sister and future brother in law were born in the same hospital. Pretty sure that’s how I met my wife- at the observation window. He would let me drive but then crab the rear steer to joke with me. I would ride on the back ledge until I dozed off and bonked my head on the window then lay on the lower front window and sleep. I started driving it at about 2400 hours and the hour meter quit working at 8500. Good times. I love that tractor.

Looks like it has been maintained very well. Still getting it done.

[lfeco]

A tractor that should have been far more popular than it was.

I had the opportunity to spend some time in the cab of a few of those back in the day. Thanks for the memories 🙂

[straightpipeacres]

That's my favorite tractor buddy 👌

[travisschwandt]

I always liked that color scheme case had.

[donnellykieranj]

What a beauty. Love the white and poppy red colour a la David Brown

Hi Jason,
That’s a really nice tractor and in good shape as well.
Why did J.I. Case used Scania engines in these series?
Did you ever filmed or seen a Case 4994?

[tonymckeage]

Great Video, fantastic machine! I was just a young fella in NZ when I first came in contact with case products, we had a case 600 header, i remember seeing a case 1070 at a field day operating, also a contractor operating a 1470 one of the early rigid frame case tractors! watching the use of the crab steer features in this video was interesting! It was shame that center pivot replaced rigid frame basically after the model we are looking at! I don't know anything about the mechanical side of rigid compared with center pivot! History is history thanks for sharing

[fasteddy]

Gotta admit it's a tough looking tractor,

[alspeers]

Nice tractor for, those Scania diesels are super tough.
