Tractor: Sits in barn Lawrie: MY PRECIOUS

5:26 was probably the calmest reaction to a Wasp Nest I've ever seen.

Love the respect for the tractor, pulls it from its hiding place and then bend down and says hello like talking to puppy

Sits for 5 years battery still good. Tractor walks on water, it's a miracle!

2nd time Lawrie has used a tractor to rescue a tractor

I love how Lawrie treats these vehicles like a pet. The enthusiastic "Hello" says everything.

This tractor hasn’t been parked very long.

It’s got some power in the battery, it’s got a plough on the back, it’s the summer looking at the trees it’s summer and the inside of the shed was free of brambles I would guess it’s only been in there since last autumn or early spring and not years

i love hearing the gun fire in the background...

That has not been sitting " many, many years " As much as I like you and your enthusiasm, I'm going to have to call, "bullshit" on that statement. Many, many months.....maybe? Entertaining video nonetheless. Thanks

This guy reminds me of Tiny Tim tiptoeing through the tulips.

I think this is stage. Not only due to the other comments stating thing like the tyre conditions, the battery being able to start after years and the fuel would have gone bad by then but also at 2:18 there are fresh tyre tracks in the grass going straight up and in to the barn.

I love the will it start content of these videos. I love the respect you have for these old vehicles.That is a cracking old tractor find. It’s a real old gem. It was great to hear her starting.

Hasn't been a very long time but this is just how fergies are found . Loyal . they will wait patiently until needed again

Doesn't look too forgotten, it's super clean! Lovely wee tractor

That tractor is in such good shape, if the shed wasn’t literally falling down I would hesitate to call it a barn find

"Fuel in the tank...right commence sparky sparky with adjacent battery terminals " hahaha brilliant

Wow. I love your will it starts. It’s amazing what you can find hidden in places like that

I one day hope to be able to spend time with my hobbies with the same excitement Lawrie has at 1:55

Hey lawrie thank you for making these videos they been keeping my mind off the news

I wish you could have been with my brother and I when we retrieved a DB30-D from a shed in Cliffe, North Yorkshire. I should really say, "The remains of a 30-D". It was the "Crop Master" style tractor complete with horseshoe scuttle panel and bench seat. Anyway, this shed was to say the least, fragile, and we had weakened the structure by hacking out the old "Botry Bush" that had grown through the tractor's steering gear and out through the tiled roof of the shed (it was a brick built shed). I was 'Muggins' on the dead tractor inside the shed, my brother was sitting pretty on his "Super Crop Master" outside the shed. As he pulled forward, my tractor lurched sideways as one wheel was stuck. It broke free, but now put my tractor on the wrong trajectory! - I was heading straight for the sun (cue Thunderbirds music). As we moved forward, I tried my best to haul the steering wheel round to get back on course. The tractor's front end emerged from the shed, but that lurch had put the left rear wheel onto a collision course with the shed's door frame (more Thunderbirds music), and as the tractor came out through the opening, it pulled out the remains of the door frame. As it did so, there was nothing left to support the wooden lintel over the doorway. It collapsed onto the ground, followed by the brick gable. Now, with nothing to support it, the roof first sagged, then fell in, followed by the side walls. Now, I didn't really dare to look, but as we pulled forward, there was a definite rumble of falling bricks, and a cloud of dust and crap which enveloped the tractors. As the dust settled, I looked back to see a pile of rubble, and a great deal of ivy where the shed used to be. - Just think "Laurel & Hardy" - You won't be far off! We apologised to the shed's owner, for the destruction, and he gave us back a tenner off the price we'd paid for the tractor and said "That's alright, you've just saved me £50 on the demolition. . All I have to do now is shovel it up"! Ah, a Sunday afternoon in the summer of 1981 - Happy days.

Love these will it run videos that have been popping up lately! great content Lawrie jayemm sent me here! keep up the good work

Remember kids: starting a tractor while standing beside it is as deadly as cleaning a loaded gun.

Great video. Loved it when it turned over for the first time

5:23 I love how Lawrie is getting excited ver probably the cutest tractor Ever. However he’s not realised that Behind him there is a bigger shed with more vehicles in needing a bit of Lawrie love and care

Looks pretty intact. You've got a good one there.

When you towed it out I had a moment of envisioning that moldboard meeting the radiator of the other tractor. Mostly because my brother and father managed that trick once - had a AC D17 diesel that had a bad electrical system so had to be coast/pull started. My brother stalled it on level ground. My father, in his usual hurry, decides to pull start it with the AC 180 but doesn't take the large round bale fork off that first. My brother wasn't quite fast enough on the clutch and brakes when the D17 fired up. The point did, at least, stop just short of the fan.

So many questions. Did the owner drive it into the shed a few months before. It looks like it's not been stood up for long.

When i saw the thumbnail i was like OH NO NOT THIS AGAIN HE'S FOUND ANOTHER ONE, LOL nice video guys

I loved my 55 T-035! Great tractor. Sold it for more than I paid for it

Fun video! This might have sat for a year or two tops. I bought a 52 Ford 8N that sat in a shed not running for at least 5-6 years and the old battery was leaking acid (I brought a new battery), points needed filed, and starting fluid needed to be sprayed into the carb. Even then, only one cylinder would fire at a time until they all finally fired. After about 20 minutes she was purring, but it took a bit more work initially. I love seeing these old tractors given new life. :)

Just joined your channel and I find it fantastic watching all the tractors

Once again a very entertaining video, keep up the good work!

You have a great time going around finding these amazing tractors, do you get to keep them? I feel their owners may have died off and tractors are then abandoned.

@10:50 in the background, upper right corner is something I'm surprised he didn't jump at immediately- it's a Fairmont Railway Motors speeder / inspection car. Looks like a larger model, possibly an S4. Go look at the speeder, Lawrie! Trains! You're going to love it. It still has the flywheel and cloth belt drive single cylinder hit and miss engine from what I can see- the single narrow radiator above the engine cylinder.

Oh no... He's got another one 😂 Nice vid

What a find! Cute little tractor

Love it mate.

My BIL has one of those (1848 Fergie) in Canada up in the mountains of BC. It's been running all it's life and is still going srtong. I even had a chance to drive it mowing his meadow! Great little beast~

I can't believe you found a old tractor in working condition!!!

Enjoyed that.

Blimey, seems I'm very early. Nice find!

Love the Twisted Nerve whistle and the beginning

That was glorious

Lovely!

We have a tendency to neglect our vehicles and equipment here in the USA, not all of us are raised with a sense of responsibility , so finding equipment in this manner is not uncommon here. I share your desire to rescue every machine I find, but usually don't get to do so. I'm glad this one got saved :-)

Without reading any comments it looks like it's the middle of the summer the tractor is parked there in the fall and the weeds grew up over it and still little juice in the battery.

The spark plugs looked brand new when he was reading the oil level

Great video

Nice one mate runs well enough mate 👍

There’s an old tractor like that at Archers Ice Cream near Darlington for kids to play on. I spent many a happy hour on it. Whilst other kids were just climbing on it. I was trying to figure out how it worked and how to start it

Rescuing old vehicles are fun but i didn't do now i get the feeling

Didn't look the least bit neglected, just an indication of how fast brambles grow.

I love the begining😂😂 Its precicely how I would act🤣👌

Great video, but this old beauty had not been tugged away in that shed for very long :)

I have an old TO 20 that sat about five years. All i done was swap battery, change gasket on fuel bowl due to leaking, fresh gas and cleaned the points fired right up.

Nope stood for very little time even the plow is still shiny lol😂

Great video's. I found a 1951 TED20 in a barn here in North Wales, it is now running and is 60% restored. It hadn't been run in over 20 years.

Howdy from the US I love the videos with the Masseys even Though I run case IH and internationals

Very cool.

Next time you're over here you need to look into going to the preview days at a Richie Brothers or a Yoder and Frey auction. Heavy equipment as far as the eye can see and everything has the keys in them and most of them start. Kind of a try before you buy kind of thing. Here's an example kzfaq.info/get/bejne/gddod62WltTUnn0.html

Fergusons clutchs pedals have to be released for the hydraulick to work

A lot of those gray Ferguson tractors were wrongly restored with red and gray Massey Ferguson colours. If anyone is interested in the inventor of the tractor see" Ferguson Family Museum" website.

This man loves his tractors ..

This is some oscar tier acting

The beginning is Welcome to Lawries Mind

its alive does evil laugh fantastic hopefully it gets a new paint job

There's a tractor in a bush next to the road in Torphichen near Edinburgh. Sometimes wondered what type it is.

My grandad restored a grey Ferguson and it would always start once jump started. I did get to drive it once at a show which he never got to see as he passed away when I was only 7 years old. Unfortunately we had to sell it when my Nan decided to downsize house. I might get another tractor to play with and a very big Ford TW25 keeps looking at me at the the New Holland dealer where I work.

Awesome

I will suggest to connect up jumper cables with Positive First and Negative last, as Negative is usually a body ground. The Positive is just one point and it could accidentally touch the wrong contact and short something out. Just a suggestion, it's what I was taught and I always do positive to positive then negative to negative. (When jumping a car at least) and trust me you will definitely know if you've connected them backwards, I did that once and it sounded like I was welding with 2 car batteries lmao

IT'S ALIVE ! 😮👏👏👏👍

Nice find was in good nick ,it would be a rusty mess here ,ive liked and subd you greetings from Wales UK . ive some vintage tractors on my channel ive 2 Te 20 Fergie's and a couple of ford dextas .

Hi Lawrie, I really enjoy your content and have been watching alot. If you ever get the chance to come back to the US I have a few things you'd be intrested in reviewing.

1:57. The new hot song of the century

Nice

I got an old gasoline massey 55 running. That was about 30 years ago. I'm sure it's still sitting up in northern Alberta. I haven't been up there since 1997 😞

He sounds like Rik Mayall from Bottom when it starts! 🤣

I could of swore i parked my tractor in the shed last year? I wonder were it is? Hmmmmmm

Yes, far too excited Lawrie! But I don't blame you at all, I'd probably be the same! :-)

It hasnt been parked long

lawrie: i found a tractor! ME: LOL NO SHIT!

I feel some appropriate music for this would've been Chuck Berry's Back in the USA.

If you like these tractors you should see the old ford N series tractors that Massey Ferguson's are modeled after.

Comment before watching "will it start" no but you will buy it and it will sit in the shed that's what it will do lol 😂😂 what makes you guys awesome lol idea you should open a small museum in the shed

Lawrie, if you ever in upstate New York, I'll let you drive the Allis Chalmers CA I'm going to be buying and working on.

You should have gone to a heritage railway in the USA because theyre a lot different to the ones your used to

I still use the old fergie te20 at my place.

The Battery!!!

a friend on Lake Superior had 2 Ferguson tractors.

These old tractors starts after many years of standing in a shed. I wonder if a modern tractor would

You should ask if you can buy it And restore it

Not even a cobweb on the tractor looks like it was parked only weeks ago and not forgotten.

Lawrie, I'll be honest with you- your antics have been gradually leaving me more and more inclined to attempt to acquire and repair/restore an old tractor. I didn't think it was an issue, until I started catching myself thinking things like "oh hey, wouldn't it be neat to see if that farm would give you one of those old rusty tractors in the woods on their property? Surely you might be able to fix one, right?" I'm headed straight ahead for trouble if this line of thinking continues!

Those gun shoots sound like they were getting closer!

nice find how did you discover this one. Lovely little fergie's

I talk to classic Mustangs exactly like this😂

Love how you talk to it lol

I love old masseys

A suggestion for a railway visit when the plague is over Strasburg railway in Pennsylvania of you haven't been already
