So awesome to see your daughter and son learning to drive the tractor 🚜 Great job!

The best of this video is you interacting with your family members ,it's great teaching your kids ride the tractor , I lost my kid in 2006

Swallows in the barn is good. In fact I heard old farmers say it was bad luck to disturb a swallow nest. Thank you Pete.

You could almost feel the sadness in the owners face when you were loading his last tractor up to leave. I remember when grandad had to quit farming and sell his first new tractor{Farmall Super C}. He was very sad watching all the memories go down the road. At least it has a new great home. You folks have a great day, Bill

Always a joy with pete and family. Seller had tears as his last tractor left. New steers for market, gives great abundance and pay back on effort. Yes sell one old work slow happily on other. Bless you all and people watching. Ty for the update. 🏁😇💖🥰🤠✝️😇😇🏁

I got a bit emotional watching you load up the 856, not going to lie. Glad to see she will be going to a good home. There is no better place for an old red tractor than at Just a Few Acres! Edit: Your kids are going to cherish the memory of you teaching them to drive the tractors, love it!

So close to 400 thousand subscribers. Congratulations well deserved keep up the great work

Pete I can't wait to see the old girl work.

A toothless termite 😂😂 Pete you made my day. Delivery of a joke is everything and that head turn at the end was the icing on the cake . Have a great day Pete and thanks for the laugh..congrats on the 856 as well. Perfect addition to the farm 👍

656 this winter! I can’t wait, I love the tractor rebuilds 👍

It is quite obvious the previous owner loved this tractor and has taken great care of it all these years, that is why it runs, looks and sounds so good. I know he was sad to see it go but I am sure he was glad it was going to someone who would care for it like he did. I think you got a good one here and look forward to seeing you put it to work. Keep making these family friendly videos! Thanks

Good morning, I can't wait how this new addition to your collection looks like Pete? I bit, it will look fantastic for sure, knowing how you meticulously restore them. Good luck, enjoying watching your uploads.

Well, now I gotta figure out what I'm getting next lol...congratulations 🎉

Hi Pete1 Another great video. I could see the sadness of the owner when loading the tractor and the happiness you had with getting the tractor home and sharing it with the kids! Making memories! Thanks again from PA

As a retired farmer its gut wrenching to see them go because you know it’s all over.

Welcome to the Just a Few Acres Farm Institute of Tractoring.

This may be crazy talk, but it's just an idea. What if you could get millard to do an episode with you once you've restored the tractor? We lose valuable experiences when the older generation goes. Might be neat to get his side of life.

The previous owner of the 856 seemed sad to watch his tractor going down the road. I grew up in a farming community in West Virginia and worked for a lot of different farmers. Watching the old owner reminded me of several of the farmers I worked for (that was 50 years ago) as they were forced into retirement simply because their bodies were worn out. It is a reminder that we are here for vapor of time, James 4:14. On a different note I am looking forward to your work on the 656, I really enjoy your tractor rebuild videos.

Beautiful tractor Pete! It’s really nice to see it being shared and enjoyed by both you and your kids.

That's the sweetest thing ever. You teaching your children how to drive the tractor. That is just amazing. That's just really great. Loving it!

One of my more enjoyable times on my grandfather's farm was operating the tractor for sure. Cattle, well, as a child I was peed on a lot, LOL. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Pete the 856 looking so beautiful. Enjoy it. Hope you have many many years with her and helping you on the farm.🎉

And sometimes things on the farm go just right. And we get to see a happy Pete and his "new" tractor! Awesome! I hope your kids continue your farm!

50 years ago I was a child on the farm we had barn swallows , which I also loved hearing. And learned a little earlier than your daughter to drive her tractor. What the side of you sight of you on the tractor with your daughter made me smile and remember my own father 50 years ago. Thanks for the memories Pete.

Billy is happy also!

When you're done fixing up your new tractor, you should send a picture to the guy to show him what you did and how well your taking care of it. He looked sad.

I love listening to the birds also. Especially mockingbirds and morning doves. Like you, they remind me of when I was a kid. Really like your channel. Good luck on the new tractor and Bossy pig.

Hi Pete, the 856 looks great on your farm. The family looks great. Hope your week finishes well. See you next time!

I remember when I was taught how to drive and operate a tractor. It’s something that I’ll never forget.

If you were on T.v. you would have the best show on TV. Its like watching the Waltons. Which i love. God bless you all

The cattle have been so well trained to keep an eye on you. They know, they know.

Heartwarming 😊. From the new piggies that Bossy Pig will be bringing to the ride around the chickens, the beautiful tractor 🚜 and the two gentleman you included in the video 💕🌷🦋💖. Hillary is so lovely and a wonderful workmate 🌹 precious 💞. Thank you Mr Pete, see you soon 🤠

A 1969 model. A great year for tractors!

That new acquisition is one heck of a tractor! Nice to see your kids drive her around the place, and it will be fun and interesting to see her in action out in your fields!

When you sale something it's not going to a retirement home it's giving the new owner joy ,like it gave you when you bought it ,have a great day and God bless you and your family, oh and it's great to see your children take interest in the farm life

Birds chirpin in the barn …one of my favorite memories in the summer!! ❤️

Thanks for all the lovely videos, Pete!

I just finished watching the last video and boom here is the video of it coming home. Some great memories come flooding back seeing this old iron. What a great hobby you have built that is not only useful on the farm but fun. Enjoy and looking forward to the progress!

Thats how I learned how to drive, all before my Dad passed when I was 11. Memories that cannot be erased.

Patty is just representing her constituents!

Watching the kids drive the tractor was the best part of the video.

Some of my best childhood moments are riding on the side of my dad's 1972 Allis Chalmers 170. Brutus is still the beast tractor on dad's farm.

I'm 61 years old now & seeing the picture of you riding on the fender of the tractor reminded me of me riding on my uncle's John Deere tractor fender, when I was just a little boy, as he plowed the fields in Wichita Kansas

What a blessing it is that you and Hillary work so well together!

Love seeing the kids involved this is a picture. Perfect moment of dad and his children. Thank you. I love seeing this.

Another great addition to your tractor stable. Looking forward to seeing how this old girl performs in the field. Will be interesting to see how she shines up. Congrats, Pete.

How cool! Teaching your children to drive those tractors is how memories are made. I love it!

I loved how your children learned to drive the new tractor. They did very well and you seem to be a good teacher. Thanks for sharing this part of your life with us!

Your baby is home. The tractor I know brings you joy.😊 Like you, I enjoy the sounds of the birds in a barn, or the woods. It's very relaxing to me. Sitting on my rocker, coffee in one hand, and listening. 🥰

NEVER MISS A THUMBS UP ON THIS CHANNEL‼️👍👍👍👍👍

I fondly remember riding on the fenders of my uncles IH656 when I was young. Ellsworth Hudnutt of Grinnell, IA taught me about red tractors and hard work of summers that I’ll never forget.

Thank you, Pete. My grandad was a farmer and many of his tools are still around. They mean so much more than means to get work done. Best of everything with the new tractor. I'm sure the old.farmer took solace in knowing you'll appreciate it. Great to see the kids 'in the driver's seat'.

Hello Pete- from Webster, NY

Pete, you have a wonderful friend who helped you out.

You must have read my mind Pete because I was going to ask you which tractor would be the next candidate for restoration now that you have an extra one. I'm looking forward to the new project already. Thanks for the videos and stay safe.

Pete glad to see your kids seem to be getting into the farming something good to see they will be assisting you with hay soon

The 856 looks good. I'd polish her up and put a clear coat on her. I drove a 560 diesel when I was 16 yrs old. worked for a farmer that raised Potatoes, Onions, Peppermint and Spearmint. I worked for him until I was 17. Joined the U.S. Air Force, and made it a career. Retired in 1989 and drove a truck for 25 years. Now retired in NW Florida and lovin your channel. Keep up the great work Pete. Look forward to all the new content. Richard Hutchings.

This video made me well up, Pete. Such good moments... how precious it was to watch your children drive the tractor and for us, your minions, to be a part of that special memory with them and with you. Thank you for giving us that. The display of the circle of life as the herd changes was captured in this video as well. The fields as they go through their changes as well. It all ties in with the seasons and the very heartbeat of existence and the meaning of life. Such a lovely depiction of the whole picture of what it means to live and thrive in life when you're in harmony with it all. The best part for me however was the moment you said, "I like having birds in my barn". I think that is so wonderful of you. Thank you for saying that. OH! And by the way... that ridiculous toothless termite joke you told took me beyond the edge of hilarity as that very same joke is the signature joke of my life as I have been telling that one for decades because it's the only joke I've ever been able to remember for some screwball reason. lol However, I always heard it this way... A toothless termite saunters into a bar, hops up on a stool, slams down his tiny fist and yell's, "WHERE'S THE BARTENDER!!" ...so have you noticed that every time you tell that joke it takes a while for anyone to get it? lol It is my number one all time favorite joke.

Nice tractor Pete! I see you are perspiring a little fixing the gates, summer in New York! Thanks for the video!

I like all of your videos, but I especially liked the variety in this one.

Paint it and build a new shop for restoring old tractors. It’s your dream. Don’t stop now. Move forward

Pete's joy is contagious. The tractor is getting a good home and I know the Seller is confident about that. Bob in Nevada

I love your new old tractor and I no you love it just looking at your face smiling smiling smiling

Happy for you all Pete. Sounds like you have a good plan 👍🏻. I especially enjoyed watching you and your children. Special moments make special memories 👏🏻😊

the seller is nice guy

good trick to screwing the lag L bolts in is putting a 3/8x 4 inch eye bolt in a battery drill on low place eye bolt over the L bolt and run on low speed

Thanks Pete and Hillary. Glad the new addition is home.

I like that new to Just a Few Acres Farm 856. A great addition. I always recall the International Farmall on my cousins farm across the river from our family farm. I just can not recall what model it was . I was 11 years old and got to take it for a boot back in 1961 Just good memories.

Another great video Pete! The seller can rest assured the 856 is in loving hands! Watching Grace and Henry driving the tractor is a wonderful scene that brought back memories of teaching our boys and then our grandsons learning to drive ours. I have a special photo of a grandson "driving" the Farmall H on paw paw's lap at age 1. Just a wonderful video.

Hi Pete, Hillary and family. Great tractor. Fun to see your guys driving it. Dexters love to look right at camera LOL. Hope the piggies fulfill their duties. I’m always a little sad when steers are chosen for ……. But my dream of a mechanical shop project coming true, thanks, looking forward to it. Have a great week.

You and your wife are amazing how you get on with it love it god bless you and your family mate c u in next one as always all the best to you and your family.

Yeah!! Another tractor restoration series!! Restorations are my favorite subjects. You do an excellent job explaining and demonstrating how all the systems and sub-assemblies work ! Excellent, Pete !!

Hillary is a women of few words and an amazing worker. You two make great partners on the farm. I am an old nurse and often thought farming would have been a great career.

Nice of you to share your toys with the kids and let them play a little. 😊😊😊

Golly, I enjoy watching you and Hillary work together, for the good of the farm. As I have mentioned time and again, your cattle are such a joy to watch. Their environment is a good one, and that makes for happy cows. Thanks, for being the farmer that you are…and also thanks to Hillary. You are making memories that will last forever. Bev in Maine

I love that your daughter looks like you and your son looks like Hillary. Always nice to see the kids on the video, they seem like really good kids.

If you enjoy your new old tractor acquisition, thats a very nice thing, but I am even happier for the gentleman who sold the tractor to you. Its hard to let go of things but there is satisfaction in knowing that the new owner is able and ready to keep it running. Thats the best of all outcomes.

Congrats on your new ride

Beautiful family and farm, you are a blessed man!

Great video today, Pete. That old farmer was sad, yes, but you and your family are giving it a great new home. And it will be cared for and cherished. Have a beautiful weekend, Pete and Hillary.

Nice to see the instructional of driving tractors. Passing on what most don't know! Keep it up. When they are 40 they will be thinking, I did this with Dad, I can do it. Awesome. Bit by bit the good will succeed.

If that was another guitar I was bringing home my wife would do the eye roll. My wife’s a RN

New workshop plans by a professional architect. 😊

It's a tough day when equipment and animals go down your driveway for the last time. We are in the process of doing it now. While I am excited for the freedom of life after farming, I also have heartache is knowing it's all becoming a memory. It's hard to explain.

Pete, I love When you Have your family In your videos.. These are memories that they're gonna be able to look back on forever.

Best part of milking in the summer is looking into the nests and seeing the baby birds. A lot less bugs in the barn when you have barn swallow flying around

The new 856 if a big boy. Really nice and worthy of a good scrubbing and polish. The tool box is nice too. Paint it dark red after pounding the lid straight. You are A Lucky Guy.

A farmer loves his tractors, and since you can enjoy rebuilding or fixing them, more tractors go your way. It is likely a comfort for a farmer to sell his to you.

Great to see the 856 in its new home. I was glad to hear your master plan for the tractors and I'm looking forward to seeing the next major overhaul.

Pete, I'm so glad you'll be doing the 656 up, with the others to follow. I'll be watching as each one comes off the line! Good to see the kids wanting to learn to drive and take the new toy for a spin around the chooks. 😄

Moin Hillary and Pete, love your Videos.. Best whishes from Ostfriesland (the north-west corner of germany)

Loved your Smile. Enjoy that 856.

That 856 just purrs! Sounds perfect and starts right away. I think you made a great purchase! Nice machine and seems to have been taken care of very tenderly! Great video!

That sigh at the end. I know that sigh. It's well earned.

It was so awesome seeing the kids drive the tractor! They did great! Enjoy your new baby. I always enjoy your videos and if I lived anywhere near I would go to your farmers market.

Pete and Hillary you make it all look so easy. I'm sure that things don't always go as smoothly

Hi Pete, We just love watching your videos. I bet when Hilary married you, she never thought she would become a movie star!! ⭐️👌🏻

Pete doesn't even have to say, "get along little doggies" as Clint Eastwood did in the the 1960's TV series Rawhide, to cattle drive the herd on down to greener pastures!

Fun watching your kids learn to drive the tractor!

Your Daughter Looks Just Like You! She and your son, will be your Next Generation of Farming. Your a Lucky Man, to Have them
