BM-10 Put all the pieces together again and make it complete. Still missing the headlights tho. But now she is a good runner again! Works great. The tractor is a Bolinder Munktells type 10. A 2 cylinder two-stroke hot bulb crude oil engine at 20HP. Made in Sweden in 1947.
Thanks for watching! /Richard Andersson. - Авто та транспорт
Just how I like to see old machines.preserved rather than restored.
Me too! Thank's /Richard
A nice-looking old girl once she got dressed. Nice addition, the buddy seat.
Those old "Chug-a-lug's" Made their owners a good living back in the day.
Richard, thank you for your wonderful videos on old Swedish tractors! Whereas here in America old ttactors are usually restored to make them look brand new, your philosophy of keeping them looking like working pieces of art is a fresh approach to keeping them running. Keep up the good work!
Previous owner: "We don't need five bolts. Three will be plenty good enough." 😉😉😉
Haha kind of 😁 Much of the parts were just fitted with one bolt to prevent them from being lost.
Now do the right thing, paint it up!
Keep up the good work!
JIM😍
Hehe, never ever 😁 /Richard
Great Job ! >> Now let's see it pulling a Plough or something Constructive !
The comments you wanted, my friend! You are an artist on old steel no one should ever critique you for your art. Insanely knowledgeable in these old tractors, a fantastic mechanic and fabricator. What is there to critique?
Thank you for the ride along and allowing us to watch the process and the time it takes to make these vids to share.
I admire your talent and expertise with old motors.
The older generation had it tough. Can you imagine living with only flat groove screws.
I spent many hours riding on the fender of my grandfathers International Harvester. Wish I had a seat like that to ride on!
You are doing a great job! Your videos are extremely well done. You speed the view up at appropriate times and I appreciate that you don't have any music in your videos. The content is interesting and appropriate for children.. Quite educational and fun inspiring. Thanks you!
Great to see the old girl in running order 💪👍
If you keep turning these junkyard gems into finely functioning machines, Jay Leno is going to be knocking on your door with a fat roll of Benjamins looking for a deal... love your channel, subbed/all notes.
I'm so glad I found this channel! I have loved this series and enjoyed you other videos. Keep fixing!
A big Thanks! Glad you like it. Motivation like this makes new videos 😊
@@YesterdaysMachinery If it helps as well, for every hateful and mean comment left by complete strangers, there are more then a thousand people who genuinely enjoy what you do, even if they don't say anything. Your welcome!
That little bench at the end it totally something my Grandfather would have done. As it is, he had tractors with big square fenders, easy for a kid to sit on and ride around with grandpa baling hay. One hand in the hand hole on the front side of the fender, and the other hand holding onto the tail light at the back end of the fender. He did have boxes, about 5 inches deep, and just big enough for a 6 pack sized cooler to fit into. We could carry a sandwich and drinks with us around in the fields in them.
I really like how you use a ratchet to put bolts back in, instead of a impact.
Good Job, she looks much better this way than painted ! In Germany the latest fashion is to remove ugly paintwork from "restorations" done 20 years ago and make the old chaps look old again.
Great video.....1947 was a good year, everything was built with quality.....I was born in 1947.....John (west coast, Can.)....
Hello. I am back again from New Jersey, USA. Another excellent job on your part. Thanks so very much for the videos!!
A little lindsseed oil works well on the finish .
Love that trator, thanks for the videos, too many ads
Been A mechanic for 40 years you showed me new things
Great fun, thank you Richard.
What a superb restoration and retaining its original patina 👌 lovely running engine as well a real credit to you 💪👍
Great work! Watched from 1 through 5 concurrently. You do amazing work! Beautiful piece of machinery. I was surprised to see the PTO and hydraulics working!
Very nice, but maybe change that gearshift boot, that's where most of the rainwater comes in to these old tractors gearboxes... 👍
Thank's! I have actuallt bought that used one just to fit the shape och the rest of the tractor. There are new available in chinese rubber that lasts one year.. The tractor always sits inside. But yes, if i would leave it outside in the rain it would pour a lot of water down there for sure. /Richard
What a beauty and soild I love the rust and old look but think it would look great painted again also
Pretty cool pre heater .
you sir a awesome mechanic .personnel i am a retired carpenter but your videos are awesome just i understand the love of work
I'm in North Carolina working a couple of jobs but I live in Houston area . Hope to move back to Alaska before I turn 65 .3 yrs.
Alaska would be fun to visit some time. /Richard
Sir, the world needs more REAL MEN like you. God help us.
That's a neat trick to age the bolts I might have to try that
Really lovely looking tractor. Great job on the subtle restoration to keep it looking original. You could stain the wooden bench and attack it with a blowtorch and a hammer to carefully make it look 100 years old too!
Well done a good looking Maschine with all the Charme of the old
Take care
Yours Frank
Brilliant. That's my favourite tractor of all time. 👍
Take care Richard. Breathing the fumes from burning off zinc oxide can cause metal fume fever.
Old, rusty, beautiful. 👍
What marvelous machinery you are fixing up here. I love the way you don't over-restore things. Keep up the great work, and thanks for sharing it with us all!

Hi! I hope you will find it interesting! /Richard.
Hi and welcome 😊
Hi. Richard , I'm back again . Watching wile working . It's Ok , I'm the Boss , lol.
To stop the rust-out behind the rego plate, fit a nut to the attachment fasteners, between the rego plate and the door. Leaves an air space so it drys out.
Verry Nice work vid the traktor.From Jörgen Ringdahl in Västervik Sweden.Good lok.
Very nice videos, you have a new suscriber from Argentina!!!. Greetings!!!
Welcome! 😊
An amazing piece of engineering. I didn't think reed valves were around until the Yamaha RD250 of the 70s.
Thank you for sharing your journey.
Very much Appreciate.
Crankcase compression two-stroke engines with a check valve in place of the reed came out in 1889, and the reed was a simplification of the original ball-type check valve, seemingly in service by the early 1900s, but as early as 1891 there were true valveless two-stroke engines, where the piston skirt acted as the crankcase intake valve (many modern 2-stroke gasoline engines use this valving instead of a reed).
@@SilntObsvr
Thank you. Now I know.
I like that you kept it as original as possible. Even down to color case hardening the hardware for the sheet metal covers. Running great, let's see how it pulls.
Well, to be considered would be the electric start system. It has all in place, bulb heating, starter and generator. But it needs lights! Urgently.
Now You got it running I guess I´m not the only one who´d like You to go the final distance. When the electric fully works this tractor becomes really useable again, just flick a switch, push a button and it runs. You could still hand crank it but heating the bulbs would be much safer. I´d prefer that. But it is a very nice machine. Please make it pretty again, it deserves to be.
Hi! Yes the electrical will be fixed. But there is no parts available. This is a early rare model with the old type of headlights that is almost impossible to find. I have one that is totally rusted away, but you can still see the shape of the housing so i think making a new one from scratch is my only chance.
Same thing with the glow-plugs. This is very thick big plugs that is supposed to be heated for 2 minutes before start and for 30 sec again when the engine is running. And there are no new made. But i have a friend that actually have drawings and data on the plugs. He have made a couple himself with good results, so i will give it a try to make a pair. And then the electric harnes should be in a protective steel-tube and etc. And everything is rusted away. And i do not want to put anything on there that ain't original or very close. So it will take some time to find all the parts that the tractor deserves. /Richard
Nice, hello from the Florida Gulf in USA
Hello Richard, new subscriber for you from Oregon USA and we do not have any hot bulb traktors here and I make old ones run in much the same way you do. I have a 1957 Case backhoe that was born from factory on my birthday so it is a keeper anyway I very much enjoy the work you do and now I will watch for an old Hot bulb traktor here just for fun, oh I really like your forest Bear, so handy for you. my family comes from Norway/Sweden border area. Best Regards.
The patina is outstanding.....
Congratulations, the most beautiful tractor!
How soon we forget the ingenious frugality of the post-war period. People devised clever ways to overcome expensive fuel consumption and made their machines to last, not needing frequent servicing and replacement. I do not wish for the world's economic system to need such frugal measures again, but I hope they find a life of their own. Because it's right.
That screen keeps fingers out of the fan 2 that's a plus
Beautiful.😎
just a bit of advice,(you may already know this) always hand crank standing to the outside of the crank, with an open fist (thumb and fingers on same side) using the same hand as the upstroke of the crank is on, with hand to outside of crank (upstroke is on left "clockways" use left hand, upstroke is on right "anticlockways" use right hand) any other way, you risk a broken arm if it kicks back.
ford model "T" was only 15 KW but was well known for breaking arms if hand started incorrectly
I like the content only complaint is the quality and the level of the sound
Ye i know. I have to find me a Mic.
Great no paint job
No, if this tractor was painted now it would loose its value. I personally hate re-painted engines and tractors. Original is original just once.
As all steel panels on it are in such good condition it deserves to get properly painted in the right colours! Also, if it then is started and 'used' it will quickly get patina again from burnt paint and minor oil stains. But its yours to decide on whats best for it 😉
@@thatdudeinorange2297 I understand people that likes new painted things to, but i woult not paint a vintage tractor like this original one even if someone paid me 10 grand for the job. The soul is then gone, and you just have a beautiful old girl hidden under a layer of fake make up.
And here in sweden this tractor as it is now would cost between 3-4000$dollars. If painted around the same, maybe a little less.
But i understund people that likes painted also :) But I and most others here in sweden likes it original, and it only is original once. Regards/ Richard.
Cool! Looks great!
Well dome Great restoration Nice work!!!
Well done. Great to see an old machine restored to life. best of luck for 2023 and beyond.
Veldig hyggelig og instruktivt å følge deg, kjærligheten til gammelt jern ruster ikke!
That is awesome simply awesome.
Great to see it running. Very nice 😎
This series was a fascinating look at an unusual design tractor. Your style of presentation as well as videography is excellent. I really only would suggest one thing. The audio levels when using some tools is a bit high. Dropping those would be appreciated by those who listen with earphones. Your work is great. I hope you have time to keep giving such great content.
great work
Great video great work
Tractor is looking good!
Very nice!
This was SO cool! What a treat :-D
Another cool old tractor running again, great work.
What a good job.
Impressive thank you for sharing
Thank you so much for this and all your videos. You do great work putting these wonderful old machines back to work again.
Fantastic bit of kit, just love old unusual tractors..! Very well done..!
Job well done congratulations
That thing sounds so frigging cool
Excellent video Richard :) and well done too!
I think thats the neatest little tractor ive ever seen. I also liked the little bench at the end also. Great video series. I could happily watch many more of these. Thankyou RIchard.
Felicidades Richard, eres un genio.
That engine design is so interesting.
had subscribe after watching this series. excellent work
That’s a cool tractor, seems like it runs smooth too.
She is an absolute Beauty…. Congratulations 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Very cool 😎 I am binge watching this series to catch up and waiting to see how this traktor turn out ;-}
I love your videos, the things you work on are really interesting.
Sweet!!🙂👍
Outstanding job, I like the decision to keep it looking old.
Love all this stuff.Used to treat the chassis on my recovery truck the same ..Much prefer your oily rag and usable attitude ~ very enjoyable to watch your channel ~ Thank you
That was very interesting!!! Didn't know that tractor style existed
Gefeliciteerd met jouw prachtige roestige, tractor.
Mooie video’s. Respect voor het oude!
It sounds like an old motorcycle! Love it
LOL, it also sounds like an old 250 4 stroke quad we had.
I usually throw all my new nuts and bolts in a bucket of white vinegar for a couple days takes the cad plating right off ..great video Brother keep them coming as I look forward to seeing your projects ….thank you
I am amazed at how fast you can work your wrenches!
Thanks. I enjoyed the series.
Great job.
Starting @ around 12 years old when I spent the school holidays at an uncle's farm I would try to get ones of the machines running.
I found an ancient Porsche (I think) tractor which had a huge horizontal single cylinder hot bulb engine. I tried for many weeks over several visits to get it running, but failed.
My uncle was quite happy that it didn't run. He said it was a bit uncontrollable & it nearly killed him.
Neat blow touch. I have a similar one from our farm from 1950s and 60s. My dad used it to heat soldering iron before electric ones were available. 👍👍
Excellent video. Keeping them coming!
Nice work!
Next time, if you want to "Age" your bolts or other hardware, burn the zinc off, the leave them overnight in a mixture of vinegar and salt water (roughly 65% vinegar and 35% salt water). This will rust them a bit on the surface before you dip them in oil. (longer gives more "age") so they look even more correct.
Riktigt bra videos, kul och intressant! 👍🏼👍🏼
Tack 😊😊 /Richard
You can remove the zinc coating on galvanized hardware by putting them in a dish of vinegar for a few hours. I usually let them sit overnight.
They come out a perfect aged grey.
Might try it!
Thanks for putting this series of videos up. It was interesting to learn about how the tractor is constructed. I live in the USA, so I have seen very few tractors with hot bulb engines. By the way, it would be fun to see it do some real work. Oh, and watch out for the 40 km/hr speed limit...
Thank you! Yes, a real outlaw. Thats Me.
Just discovered your channel today and am enjoying it immensely... I love learning about old machinery... especially machines I have not seen or heard of before. I grew up on a farm in Kansas in the 50's and we had machines that were old even then.
Great job on the videos and your little girl is just precious.... Thanks.

Gosh that tractor looks and sounds nice. Love the patina look. Greetings,, Kitty.
