In this video, Jim Shutt tells the story of the reliability of his IH Farmall F-20 which his dad purchased new in 1937, and was used on the farm until 1967. As a boy, he had to ride in the wagon while picking corn since a prior owner of the picker had modified it, leaving a short elevator that required him to move the incoming ears to the back of the wagon. During all those years, it only failed twice to start.
