- It's time to put more shiny, painted parts on the Super C! Today I'm focusing on the cooling system (fan, radiator, water pump, etc) and the linkages, pedals, and adjustments for the brakes and clutch.

Looking good Pete!
Great video Pete!
Lovely thanks Pete.
Great watching you restoring this tractor. Thanks Pete.
Morning Pete , love the rebuild vlogs. Craig Australia.
Thank you, Pete, for another highly entertaining video.
Thanks Pete! I'm thoroughly enjoying this series. Its looking great!
Enjoying the restoration I hope you never stop !! As soon as one is done get another one!!
Thanks for video. Take care and God bless.
Hi Pete, great video on Farmall Super C tractor rebuild. These are the most favorite videos you do on your channel. I really like all of your videos on your farm but these are the best. I have old clocks ⏰ and like and appreciate your clock 🕰 videos too. Hope you, Hillary, and your children have a great thanksgiving. Bless you all.
Love these restoration videos you put out for us, Pete. Love seeing how these old machines work. She's lookin' good.
Hiya Pete & Hillary - boy what a joy it is to follow this restoration! Great job! Im from New Zealand and there is quite a few Farmalls all shapes and sizes still around - they have a strong following and many are seen at shows etc. Well done
Thoroughly enjoyed, thank you. 👍👍🙏🙏🥰🥰🐓🐓
Coming along nicely!
Keep Smilin!!!!
Great video Pete. The old 😜Super C is starting to look like the new super C each video.👍👍
Love these old Farmall tractors. My grandfather had a Cub that he used for practically everything on a nearly 240 acre beef farm while the 70 John Deere sat parked next to the barn. Thanks for another great video!
Holly smokes Pete! It’s really coming together and I’m so excited to see the final product! I really enjoy these rebuilds! Makes me want to bring a tractor to its former glory! Thanks for yet another great video!
Keep on going and soon you'll be done with another shiny new old tractor... I like watching you do all this and fully appreciate the time you put in that we don't see.
OUTSTANDING PETE LOVE IT AND THANK YOU
Thanks for the video, always enjoy watching!
Great video. Love the funky music while your spray painting...Starting to look good. Have a super week...
A lot of work, and a lot of patience. Well done Pete
These videos remind me of watching my grandfather work on his tractor back in the day. Good memories. I was wondering how much snow you got over this past week’s storm.
Another great video. Thank you, very much appreciated.
Wow looking like a brand new Farmall just off the assembly line good job sir
Looking forward to seeing the end result 👍 😀 👌
I sincerely appreciate the effort you put into showing this restoration project, thank you for sharing. Cheers from Jacksonville Florida 🌞
I know it’s a very time-consuming process and probably not very fun on your end, but we greatly enjoy watching your videos! It almost makes me want to get an old tractor and restore it myself!
Hello Pete. I just wanted to thank you for the videos. I'm restoring a 1951 Farmall C with my dad. My dad has rebuilt several old tractors but this is my 1st so being able to watch your videos before we start each section has been a huge help for me because I can visually see what we are doing before we start. A huge thank you!!!
She’s coming right along Pete. Thank you for including us with the Super C restoration project. It’s going to look great once all back together. Take care & stay safe. Cheers from BC
Great job love the videos , keep up the excellent work Pete.
Like your how to videos intermixed with farm life videos.
Pete you are a master explainer, not many people can explain visually what it takes to disassemble and reassemble. I taught nuclear reactor maintenance, and you just have a gift for visualization and operation that is rare. Very nice job, keep up the good work and have a great day. You, Hill and family have a great holiday season, this is coming on the greatest time of the year, I can't wait.
Another great video, thank you for sharing.
#1 View! Your restoration videos are very informative and interesting. Thank you for sharing your knowledge. Keep 'em coming!
Thank you.
Great job Pete very interesting love Farmalls looking great.
Good morning... Sunday morning, drinking coffee and waiting for football to start. Watching your vlogs are so informative and relaxing to watch. Your corny jokes, mooing cows, clucking chickens, college t-shirts, squealing pigs and friendly talk have become treasured moments for me. For this I thank you.
The detail work you do is what makes a job like this look so nice. Carefully masking the mating surfaces, and painting (most)😊 of the hardware just makes a restoration look so nice when completed. This tractor will look beautiful, and be a capable machine that will work for a lifetime. ❤
It's really looking good Mr. Pete and when you're done you will have tractor that will last you the rest of your lifetime.
She’s looking good 👍
Pete, I was disabled some time ago(bus rear-ended my vehicle). Videos like this one relax me so very much. You do such an outstanding job explaining that, if well-bodied, I believe I could watch the vids in succession while assembling a refereed Super C! Thanks, Pete, for being one of my best UA-cam friends, Hillarie, too!
I just bought a super c for 350.00 hasn’t been in use for a couple years all your videos have inspired me to redo it thanks Pete. Rick from hippiehills Missouri
at 90 I forgot a lot.. thank doe a great video. granny
Awesome video Pete. Super C is looking race ready.
My father in law, who has passed away, had an old John Dierre 1010 which he would take apart & repair. The choke was off a model T. He would love to watch you & relate to what you are doing. I on the other hand love watching this but it is over my head. Thanks for sharing.
pete you are awesome great job keep up the great videos,god bless you and your family. oh happy thanksgiving.
I had a dream of making “this old tractor” series like this old house. You are doing a fine job sir. Really enjoy watching you put it all together. Dad restored a W4 and Oliver 66. Keep up the good work.
You make it look so easy. I have an international 504 I've been working on for months...
painting takes more workwork than people think
Great job!!
Another great video ty pete!,,, i love these, im an old iron ih freak lol ty. 🥰❤️👌😎
That Farmall looks awesome. Almost too nice to get dirty on the farm haha
Superb
I'm liking it.
Moving along! The care you have taken to make it better than a new one is unbelievable. Really enjoying it Pete. Thank you for taking us along!
real nice work ,going to be a great little tractor ,don't make it to nice or you won't want to work it .looking forward to the first start up..
Great video as per usual the explanation and detail as you rebuild the tractor is the best. The detail and pride in your work is the best. Wishing you and your family a happy Thanksgiving holiday.
Enjoy these as well. I have never done a tear down restoration, mainly just repairing the parts not working and getting it to the point of being a reliable machine to operate. When I have more time I hope to tackle a tear down and restore.
Great video thanks for sharing.
Pete.... The Super "C" sure is looking sharp....! Lot's of detail to pay attention to.... if you're gonna do it, might as well do it right... bcuz if ya don't, ya gotta do it all over again...! Here's one for ya.... I bought a 96 Ford Explorer SUV 4 dr, rear wheel drive, 4.0 ltr. v-6 gasoline Engine back in 2009. About a month ago the Radiator went bad, it's got a plastic tank and an Aluminum Core. I got 3 estimates to have it replaced at local repair shops. #1: $693.17, Radiator -$448.99, engine coolant $18.99, no new Hoses. #2: $772.67, same radiator & coolant, hose kit $61.40, 4-clamps @ $3.00 each. #3: Different Shop, $866.26, Radiator $599.98, coolant $38.85, Transmission fluid $7.95, labor $153.00
I went to Automotive school in RI so I wouldn't have to pay Repair a shop big bucks. I got a replacement Radiator on Amazon $144.50 w/free shipping, bought hoses/coolant/clamps/trans.fluid all locally, the whole is under $200.00, my labor Free..! I may have told all that earlier...? =)
Enjoy watching you put the tractor back together. Wondering if you ever take your tractors to shows ... ??
I liked it. Went through the same ordeal when I replaced the radiator on my 140. Pretty much the same setup.
Pete, I know a restoration is a monumental task. I appreciate what you do so I can vicariously experience a tractor restoration!! You do an awesome job and explain the operation of the various parts/assemblies so they are understood!! I'll be here for the next step, for sure! Thank you and take care. Dale in Jacksonville, Fl.
Nice job! Love your video’s
Well you did a good job but you always do looks very nice so far and I’m sure the rest of all look very nice to so I have a happy Thanksgiving and God bless
Looking good, love these little restoration series pete,thanks for all the hard work
Pete you make it look easy but I know different. Nice work. Enjoyable video to watch. Thanks Pete !
Good job really came out nice really did a nice job
What more could I ask for, wife made some cinnamon rolls ,so grabbed one of them, my coffee and came down and turned the confusor on and low and behold soon as I booted up YT there was your smiling face on top of the list!. what a way to start the day! My all time favorite video!. Like many viewers I know and appreciate all the work you put into just the video editing formats content etc. its almost as much work as the work on the Super C itself!. and I've done my share of rebuilds to know what you are doing in the background so I can really appreciate your work. And work ethics Pete. you sir do Stellar work. precise, and best of all correct!. Thank you so much for making this old man's day. I can't thank you enough. God Speed. ECF
my favorite vids. Unlike most out here I already do my farm stuff, I like the rebuilds. I would LOVE to see your dad in action a little more too. Especially when he's doing some projects. The trailer last year (year before?) for your hay transport was awesome. Loved the forks front and back, gave me an innovation idea for a couple of units on my spread.
Hi Pete! A few episodes ago you cleaned out your chimney flew for your stove. You said that you heated your house through the winter with this stove, and I was curious if you could make a video just on your stove (maintenance, efficiency, winter prep, etc.), how it fits into your “argument for simplicity”, and why you chose it over other systems. I’m considering whether central heating or a stove or two around the house is the superior option. Your commentary and perspective would help a lot! Thank you for your videos, and good luck in the future!
Looking good Pete your doing a fine job on the restoration!!!🙂🙂🙂
I approve the camera change, really makes ya see the true vibrant colors. Most of the things are very self explaining in the video. The unpainted alternator dose not bother me personally at all. It is what it is and if it dose it's job than let it just be like that. Are the pedal pivots greaseable on this tractor?
It's a lot of work, but it will pay off at the end. And once you rebuild everything, you won't have to do nothing to it for a real long time.
I never knew the fan pully needed an oil change
Not even 3 minutes in and I learned something very interesting about my Super C. Never thought I would have "Change the oil on the fan" on my maintenance list. Thank you for the very detailed videos.
Always enjoy your videos. Love to watch the plan come together. Looking really nice as each new piece goes on. I think it's awesome that you put so much into your projects, mainly because you are intending on using them after they are done.
It’s really coming along and looking good! Appreciate the rebuild videos - may never do it myself, but gives me a lot of great insights.
Nice job Pete,,, my farmall is next right? ha ha...
Nice job Pete, you're machine will look magnificent once it's complete.
Yes he does
Thank you for all your hard work Pete! Lots of time consuming work put into restoration work. Looking awesome!
I enjoy how you show the inner workings of the tractor components. The fan pulley was interesting in the engineering that went into it.
This tractor is really coming together nicely.Great work.
Great job Pete, it gets Mor red every "C" episode.
I'm wondering how the new piglets are settling in but I'm sure we'll see soon enough.
Had the 2nd snow this week, not yet a "Winter Wonderland " up here in NB Canada but a start on winter.
Take care stay warm and all the best to you and Hilarie.
Cheers.
Hi Pete...Outstanding video again today..I love you painting & re-installling all of the parts..and all of the learning that you show..we had a H on our family farm in Ohio 95 acre 's ..still being farmed..Happy Thanksgiving to your whole family...
Hey Pete. Still watching. love this one with all the shining newly painted parts going back together! Its keeping me inspired. was nice to see the rebuild on the fan assembly. I was pondering how that set up worked. every one I've seen was leaking oil around that shaft. And that's what I don't want on my newly painted engine. Looks like your your rebuild should work well. So my tactic ......before I started watching your Chanel ...was to just by one of those after market fan assemblies with grease sealed roller bearings. And I did. Made in china and looks like it. I plan to unbolt original fan blades and install onto new shaft and pulleys. However after watching your rebuild I might give it a go. I still just can't wrap my mind around how oil does not come out around that shaft without some kinda seal. and yes...that thing seems over engineered. Im getting close to bolting the torque tube back onto the trans case on my super a. Oh and I get it about painting the bolts for all the parts I've taken off to paint before reinstall. Ive actually cleaned ,primed and painted a lot of them separately. Anyway Thanks for taking the time to document all your detailed restoration techniques. Looking forward to seeing that jewel crank up. 👍
I wonder if that fan assembly might be the same propeller-to-motor assembly on a military WW2 plane radial engine. Lubricating by centrifugal force and not gravity might be the giveaway.
Pete I’m a female don’t understand ANY I mean ANY THING of what you’re talking about referring to restoration but for some why still enjoy watching ,maybe it’s the bright red color an the way the tractor looks afterwards.
Love this video! I am not a mechanic, But I understood everything that you done, It is looking like a brand new tractor. I will wait until the next step.
I hope you do another one after this. It’s really great to see.
Looking good!! Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family.
One question, could you show how you make your gaskets ?
Yes, and what material did you use? Thank you!
Something to think about if the cooling system is hard to bleed the air out u can drill a small hole (3/16 or smaller) in the washer part of the thermostat it’s a big help and doesn’t have any negative effects
Wow Pete could run a tractor repair business on the side
Looking good. Something relaxing about watching your videos. I appreciate it.
Do you see and issue with painting bolt ends on a blind hole in the block for clearance issues? Secondly that fan pulley cooling design is rediculous lol but I get it with the age. Need design…. Over engineered lol. Keep up the good work. My family appreciates you and I. Personally thank the inspiration. Holiday is coming up, so happy Thanksgiving from Minnick Family Farm to yours!
New that tractor sold for I think about $2,200.00. If you were paid $5.00 per hour you'll have more than that in labor alone.
nice job Pete, u will be an awesome instructor to show youngsters how to assemble a tractor. love the way u work
