Don't remember that one but I would like find an old one as well. The one I remember was at a combine tune up clinic at the dealers. It had a cartoon that featured "gotta go Joe". Among his mishaps he went through his chicken house because he "had to go" and didn't take time to put on enough rear weights.

+1 on the gotta go Joe. I've been checking youtube, keep hoping someone has it. Back in ag class we would watch vhs farm safety videos all the time. Gotta go Joe and his 7720! I've got a few of the two cylinder club dvds for John Deere day, but haven't seen anything newer than like 73

There are old films that play at the John Deere pavilion at Moline.
The narrator talks about highly skilled men making parts for the tractors.
I wonder what they would say about the assemblers of today? "Highly skilled craftsman assembling tractors."
Never mind that he did not change out of his pajamas to come to work today"

The movie is called "The Rejuvenation of Jim Knox" and I have it on a John Deere day movie # 5 called "A Trio of All-Time Classics" I think I got that one at the Pavillion but I have all of the set from Two-Cylinder and I think it might be on another dvd as well.
