    Gotta appreciate the old equipment to truly appreciate the new.

      especially when the new stuff keeps shutting itself down because a butterfly farted on the fender and the computer freaked out while the old stuff will still run and work despite having suffered a catastrophic failure that should render it dead in the water...

    Even coming from a museum it's nice to see an old piece of iron back out there, parades or not, it's not going to the scrap yard. That makes me very happy to see. It's ok to get a nice easy clean 'er up kinda job she looks like she was well preserved before being stored all those years.. oil fuel and water change and she's just ready to get back on the farm! Thank so much, as always, for the great video!!

    Awesome piece of history. Thanks for bringing me along and giving me a pretty good history lesson. Chad, no matter how long your videos are, I sit down and they go by quick. That indicates to me just how well you share the story. Unlike most that show every detail, you always use the "let me get this done and get back with you" saying. It feels like we get way more from the show. You're doing a great job and I look forward to your show every week. Keep up the great work. I appreciate it!

    This brought back some memories of my early days apprenticing at the Chev/Olds Dealership that I worked at. Our shop was slow, but our body shop was busy. I was sent over to tune up, and work on a 1948 John Deere D. I sandblasted that ole girl, which was being restored for the centennial parade and after it was painted, I buffed and polished her up.
    Of course the dealership owner took all of the credit, but I was prouder than punch to see it in the parade...!! Cheers

Ur show is perfect the way it is. Give texasman and the rest of us an update on ur shop. Can't wait to see that video and see you actually working in the shop. I am really wondering what will be ur first job in the new shop. I am betting a truck of some kind. Let's see if I'm right. Thanks

    Awesome tractor. I wish my 1942 John Deere LI was that nice. Years ago I had a 1941 Farmall H that had the all-fuel option. I ran it on kerosene and I needed to run it at the boiling point to run correctly. The darn thing It sounded like my propane heater running, but the main problem was that today's plugs just couldn't handle the kerosene and would constantly go bad. Was a very interesting experience.

  • @jjock3239
    @jjock3239 Рік тому

    It reminded me of the late summer, early autumn, in the 50s, when the picking season started. There were a ton of apple orchards, and it was a common sight to see John Deere, Massey Fergison, Ford, Cockshut, and many other orchard tractors, pulling trailers, loaded with apples, to get processed at the packers. I picked apples but was a city boy, so I always thought the John Deere tractors sounded anaemic compared to the other tractors, but the loads were the same.

    The clutch just needed tightened up a little. Its important to get the castle nuts as equal as possible. A inch pound torque wrench is best. Theres also another clutch disk behind the clutch driver. Just letting you know because you said youd never been in the clutch on one before lol.

    I think that you let slip the garage is a going up.... congrats to you if so. Tractors were dumb simple back when but boy howdy the different pieces were made to wear out fairly fast as when you went down the road, you could hear the different gears talking to each other. Once warmed up, they could roll a mountain over pert near. That tractor didn't seem to have a death wobble... thats right nice if I say so. I remember working on one for the first time.... probably eleven or twelve maybe. I did most of it right.... key word was most as the clutch hung up and I put it into the garage right off the get go. I had hot wired it past the key so I could run it as dad didn't want me on it. So being that everything runs best with a tune up, dad just that and tuned me right up. Then he showed me how to do different things with it, and where the key was... I still had to fix the wall on the garage. I am thinking that everyone got lucky on this tractor as most were just paint and polish, they never ran as they figured being parked didn't need to run. My favorite was the Minneapolis Moline as they would run on pee in the tank to get that last hundred feet to the shop/lol. I think you know how I figured that out. I did find out that a Magneto had the very best spark in the world, nie to killed me tho.
