This series has been more entertaining than any television show I've seen in the last 5 years. Thank you so much for sharing. I'll never rebuild a tractor, but I have enjoyed learning the history, mechanics, and process watching you restore the Super C.
If I have said it before, no apologies for saying it again. Thank you for all your amazing posts. Just a few words with little effort to their writing but heartfelt. Happy Christmas to you and your family. Love from the UK.
As a retired mechanic, I find your videos to be very soothing to me, this tractor is simply a work of art. :)
I am a visual learner & I am learning a lot from watching you work. I admire your patience and attention to detail.
When people see your finished job if they haven’t watched your videos they will have no idea the work involved. She’s going to be a show piece. You won’t want to get her dirty . Really enjoy your channel
Looks amazing. Cant wait to see her run around the farm again. Merry Christmas
Pete. Glad to see you post today, it's been 6 days or more since your last post. We were starting to worry something may have happened. Glad everything is good with you and your family. 😀
To be honest, your tractor restoration videos are my favorite. I love your attention to detail, and at the same time, not perfection, to some others. Your restorations are perfect for you and I love them. Thanks, as always Pete.

This man is an awesome metal worker, he's real good after more than 20, or 30 years,Awesome work Pete, in every phase of the repair work.
I agree more patient than I nice
Painting the underside prevents rust too, from condensation. My father, a diesel and auto mechanic, took the chrome bumpers off his brand new Chevy in 1966 and coated the backs with Rustoleum. 57 years later...no rust, no pitting, just beautiful chrome bumpers. Thank you for these videos Pete. May God bless you and your beautiful family, at Christmas and always
My mom passed away last week. And watching your videos really helps me alot. I've been watching for a while now. I have been going back and watching again they really help to take me to a different place thank you so much Pete
The next tractor you do could you show yourself cleaning the paint and rust off the sheet metal? I think it would be neat to see the process you do to clean the metal up.
So sad the world doesn't have more of the likes of you in it.
It's been kinda obvious from the very beginning! Pete you obviously have a great passion for these older machines and it shows each time you have to make repairs or restorations on your Tractors looks amazing 🤩
Are you sure like absolutely sure you haven’t done this tractor restoration stuff in a previous life Pete? I love your knowledge and skills so grateful you share this with the world! The best part is you restore the good stuff!! Love seeing red power living on!
I don't know if you read the comments section, but I just found your channel and I really like it! Thank you for the continent! God Bless you and yours.
Green filler on a red tractor, nice to see you get in the holiday spirit, merry Christmas Pete
You know, I don't believe that either you or Hil were driving that tractor drunk. That leaves only....Ezra!
The warning sticker changed my entire life theory on gasoline and burns. I just never put the two together, lots of painful questions have been answered THANK YOU!!!!
I live vicariously through your posts! Being a farmer is a multifaceted career using many talents and I would love to do the same. I’m not begrudging my career, but I just don’t have the time to actually do what you do, but I enjoy watching anyway. Best wishes to you, Pete.
BEAUTIFUL PETE, the old girl looks as good as the day it was delivered to the dealership.
it is a beautiful restoration.
Sir when you tire of the farming life, you know you got a job in antique tractor restoration. I'd be willing to bet a collector would pay top dollar for these restored tractor's (someone collects them someone collects everything) you do a darn fine job. you should be proud of your work looks brand new.
Truly a craftsman at work----you can tell by the 'touch'. Beautiful red beastie, Pete! Thanks for bringing us along, again, and a very Merry Christmas to you and your family (critters included)!
Probably the best excited, shot and edited series on youtube. ...Dave
BTW, The Tractor is looking great, 80% better than what I could do. 😮
The tractor looks great Pete is something you'll be proud of now.
When Hillary gets on one of her drinking benches hide the keys to the tractor. 😂😂 Just kidding I know she doesn't do that.
Always look forward to your videos Pete you and Hillary are a great couple and have a great farm God bless you all.
Happy holidays all
Finally, something we disagreed on . I love the clickety- clap sound. I still put the can on top. I totally get the radiator screen to . My first one I work on for days. Looked perfect. But looking from the side . You could see everything that you couldn’t! Everyone has there little things. But I sure love your videos. Your family are so sweet. Your channel is my number one favorite. Thanks
The tractor looks beautiful Pete, You should without a doubt be proud of yourself.
I remember a auction where there was a pristine 300 Farmall other than it was faded.
A old timer commented the farmer didn't have any kids. Thank you Pete. Merry Christmas.
I'm having my coffee I'm in my lazy boy and watching your video very religiously, the super C looks perfect.

The time and work ethic you have is awesome. The tractor is looking great. Can't wait to hear it running again. Merry Christmas to you and your family.
Loved this episode! Your sense of humor is greatly appreciated😊
Pete
I truly enjoy all your videos and attention to detail.
Thank you for all the time you invest in each project.
Merry Christmas to you and yours...
Can't explain it, but I enjoy your shop videos. I think that you are a Renaissance man.
Good morning Pete, I have my coffee ☕, I'm sitting and I'm watching the video on the super C, the tractor looks awesome keep up the good work.

All the prep work is what separates the pros from the quickies. Anyone can slap new lipstick on a pig but a takes a true craftsman to make a silk purse out of a sows ear. I love the tutorials and am just about to pull the trigger on my own restoration. Thanks and Merry Christmas!
Nice job Pete, I wish I had 1/20th of the talent you have. I enjoy your posts and they are never boring. Have a great day!
You have the patience of a saint. Great job
Pete, I wish I could like your videos more than one time!! Your content is great. I hope you have a Merry Christmas and can find time to post some this weekend.
Pete- you know that feeling when you buy something new (like your truck) and you want to keep it perfect for as long as possible…..and then you get a dent…….well now you don’t have to worry about it with the “c” you already have a dent…..now you can sleep and not worry about it. I think it looks great, you do a very nice job! Thank you for sharing. Nice video
Pete, The care you take in tractor restoration is a testimony to your dedication to preserving this great equipment.
Merry Christmas, to you and your family, Pete 🎅🌲
I enjoyed watching you do the bodywork on the tractor. I don't think people who've never done it don't understand the importance of the human touch when it comes to funding all the high and low spots you have to feel for. Sometimes the eye can deceive but touch never does.
The Super C is starting to look amazing 👏 👏👏👏
Just beautiful, your talent and patience is incredible. Once again we are enjoying your videos over a Montana winter. Will wait patiently for the start up . 😂
Pete, very nice sheet metal work. The grill is amazing.
Well done!
I really enjoy watching your work. I wish I had the patience to do work like that. Good job
That is a pretty darn good looking tractor 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍 beautifully done
The Super C is my favorite tractor in your collection. Have you considered making a Calendar with photos of your collection? I would be a buyer for sure.

If you ever get tired of farming Mr. Pete, you can have a promising future repairing and restoring antique tractors. That sheet metal looks absolutely fantastic! I hope you, Miss Hilarie and the kids have a very Merry Christmas!
Your attention to detail is so good to see! Waiting patiently to hear the start up! Looks great!
Great Job With The Sheet Metal And Painting. It Is An Art Unto Itself.........
That's a lot of love you put on that old tractor. It shows.
Pete, you never cease to impress me. GREAT JOB.
What a great job you do on those restorations, your a man of intricate detail. I guess anything worth doing, well you know the rest. I really enjoyed this video, thanks for sharing. Keep warm and stay safe, have a great week!
You do an awesome job with detail. The old girl is looking as good as if she was new. Blessings🙂
EA watching Pete do this shows he is truly a craftsman,great job
Looking really good now Pete. Almost showroom ready.
"Sometimes I think people over think things" -Pete. I love it, but honestly its true.
Pete, another nice job paying attention to the details. I know you will be satisfied with the end results. Keep the videos coming, because they are very enlightening and enjoyable.
How good was this video? well before I watched it I went out and made a nice mug of Chicken soup, got few crackers. got a fresh cup of coffee, came back in laid all my goodies out, got comfy in the shack (I'm a Amateur Radio op so spend all my retirement in the "Radio Shack" swivel chair and all. then say back and had the time of my life watching and savoring every moment of this video. you sir! are beyond praise!. I'm pushing 80 so no more rebuilding anything for me. If I can't lift it and put it on the bendh it doesn't get done. so small pro-jects is the name of the game for me. so I live vicariously through oyu Pete. thank you so so much for taking the time to make an old man like me so happy. God Speed. ECF
I'm with you, Pete.
That unfinished metal reminds me of the polished aluminum on an old WW2 airplane. Looks good against the red.
EXTREMELY WELL-DONE!!! Greetz from the Netherlands!!!😀
I like that you do things right. My Grandfather had a Super C and I really liked it. It always started and ran like it should. Thanks for posting. Looking forward to seeing the finished product. : )
Good morning Pete. Another great video. A great example of all American persistence and ingenuity in getting difficult tasks done. Before studying architecture I owned a sign making shop. The skills acquired, drawing and fabrication, set me up to study architecture later. Merry Christmas to you and family. May God Bless all of you.
Sheet metal repair is an art. Great job! Merry Christmas 🎄
I forgot how much I love the Super C. 🚜
I love Mate you are really good at what you do and don’t let anyone else you don’t know what you’re doing it’s Great job.
Sheet metal looks great Pete. Takes patience as well as skill to get old tractors to look that good.
Pete the hard work you put into this tractor truly looks amazing.
What a beautiful looking machine. Great job on restoring an American classic. Thanks for bringing us along.
Looks incredible Pete, thanks for sharing! Can’t wait to hear her purrrrrr.
I'm John Deere all the way but if that Farmall was mine I wouldn't want to take it out of that garage. That's a beautiful tractor.........very nice job!!!!
Great looking tractor Pete!!! I think the next project is getting that F-150 a nice glossy red coat!!!! Thanks for the great video Pete!!
Pete you do good work! That baby looks awesome! Merry Christmas to you and your family!
What a brand new farmall super c looks like. Wow she is beautiful nice work Pete!
That's is turning out sharp Pete!!! Congrats!!
My dads Super C was the first tractor i drove when i was 5 yrs old, he bought it new in like 1954 i think, nice restoration job 👍 i cleaned & painted my dads with a paintbrush , & put new stickers on it, it actually turned out pretty good, done that like 38 yrs ago ... you could go out there to this day & it will start rite up ... we pulled big chopper wagon loads of silage with that little tractor all the time , it would pull it in 4th gear as long as you were on level ground .. my dad backed in several loads of hay & straw in with one hooked behind the other one several times with that little tractor , good little work horses ...
i guarantee that is more attention than that sheetmetal got when it left the farmall plant you did a fine job
Tractor looks awesome, can't wait to hear it run
Oh my that tractor looks sweet !!!
Love the sparks flying at the camera. Keep it up Pete! Love the videos!
Takes a smart man to make it easy to understand and enjoy. Thank you!
Wow Pete, the Super C Looks Amazing. Your attention to detail and workmanship really makes your restorations great. I agree with your thoughts about the mufflers, that is what makes restorations fun to look at ... the restorer's vision. Maybe we will see one or two of your restos in Canandaigua next year?
The super C sure is looking pretty. You really do love your tractors. This one sure is a lot simpler than the M.D. was.
Almost there…. Lookin fantastic, you gotta be gettin tired. Definitely will be proud to drive her!!
Beautiful little tractor, awesome job, Pete.
Awesome work! Can’t wait to hear it start!
I saw that an thought Pete's lost it an going for the Lamborghini look .made me smile
The pride you must feel and the joy you give to others when they see the Finnish product, well done Pete
Simply blown away by the results!
That is one beautiful tractor! Your videos are like therapy. Thank you!
Merry Christmas Pete, to you and your family. I grew up on farm myself. 29 acres 30 minutes from Niagara Falls.( Canada) We had a farrowing operation.( Pigs) Dad worked at a large Steel mill in Hamilton Ont. Really enjoy all posts and project work. You are doing a great job. People don't know just how self reliant a farmer must be. Watching you proves that beyond a doubt.All the best for 2023!!
Merry Christmas to you and Hillary. I always look forward to your videos. There's something peaceful about your farm life and the animals. As an engineer I enjoy your tractor repairs, and any "breakdown" repairs you make on your equipment. Have a peaceful Christmas day with your family.
A true artist! This is sculpture! ♥
Unbelievable job on restoring this tractor. Amazing sheet metal work. Great videos.
She is coming out beautiful. All red and shiney!
Great metal working skills. Don't forget some dents and scratches give it some character, perfect isn't always the best
You are a very patient man, it shows. What a great job you are doing on that old girl.
I get a kick out of you talking to your self ! because I do the same thing.😊
Finally you upload.. every day checking your channel
