Hello Pete my name is Tim Hart I watch your show religiously I enjoy it so much and your whole family. Your Humor and ability ability to convey information is unbelievable please keep the show going it’s my favorite Tim

It's a joy to watch the rebuild. Part of farming is equipment repair and maintenance. After the rebuild, the Super C will give you many years of service, plus it would be fun to drive an almost new condition tractor.

Give the director and film crew and editor a raise. Good job putting the final cut all together into a contiguous progression of narrated detailed steps. 😉 Perhaps; just for a personal historical record; you can do a behind the scenes one day and show just how mentally challenging and time consuming this solo process is to accomplish.

Looking good!! Btw you have been mentioned on a couple other channels in a very positive way-your are having a positive influence on a lot of people 👍

There is just nothing like a Pete Tractor Restoration Series video!!!

Very enjoyable to watch . When I was a kid ( I am now 78+ ) my brother and I got a Visible v8 plastic engine for Christmas . It was so much fun putting it together .

Don't comment all the time, but gotta tell you Pete love watching these videos from the fence fixing, to making hay, farmers market and everything in-between. Love these mechanical videos the most. Brings back memories of when I was tinkering with small engines and worked my way up to my 1st 350 Pontiac complete rebuild pice by pice. Took me a better half of winter 5months but I was 15 & my income was my paper route. Aaah the memories your channel brings back. God bless you and your family 👪

A great explanation of the deformation in the lighter metal on the covers. I have been guilty of not taking enough time myself, getting them flat, learned that lesson, good to hear your doing it. Thanks for the video, have a nice day.

Your doing a great job Pete, looking forward to seeing it run . With so much big equipment now day’s ,it’s fun being transported back in time

Great to see the engine getting done, you should incorporate Patty in the video's to give you advice, Love the Patty cow

Thank you Pete you would have made a good teacher I enjoy watching you work on all the tractors God bless you Hillary and your kids

This was a great video for me to remember with my dad. he was born 1903..

"Tuck, tuck, until everything is tucked." Sounds like when I'm putting on my jeans that went through the dryer!

I might be alone in this. But i love the fact that you kept your coughing in at the end of the video. It makes it more real and i feel like im actually there with you learning instead of 1500 miles away. Plus its a little funny.

It just occurred to me why your rebuilds are so interesting, you explain why you do what you do. And instead of ooze out it should be smoochize. Hey a new mechinal term.

the world needs more people like you

Hello Peter. Another video to pass onto my husband. He loves watching you working on your tractors. Have a good day. Be well.

Thanks for the oil pump tip. Hopefully over the winter I can check my 504

An absolutely great series. I don't have a Farmall YET! But I do greatly appreciate your attention to detail and how you are constantly passing along tips and your reasoning for your process! I hope you have a Super A series that I can watch after this one.

Everything is going to look great once the red paint goes on!

Hope all is well Pete. Keep up the good work. Have a good day!

Splendid, Pete! This has been great to watch-there are clearly benefits to being 50-something, and it shines through you in videos like this!

There's real value in your explanations because you explain the "why" and "what" of mechanical operation as well as the "what". Great!

..definitely my FAVOURITE channel!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Greetz from the Netherlands!!!

You always keep me sain in a mad world. Back to basics and very informative. Love all the videos you do.

I'm just a girl...but it's always interresting watching everything you do...even mechanical things...now I'm even more versed in parts of tractors and what they're for and what they do because ofvyou...and maybe I'll just surprise my husband with my knowledge and terminology from what you've taught me...he teaches me a lot cuz we work together prettyuchbeverything farming or domestic...we're a team...I justvwish I could knock his socks off someday by saying something outrageous that he'd never think I'd know just from listening to you. I know I've told you b 4 ...you are an excellent teacher...thorough...direct...patient ...calm and easy to understand. You take your time in explaining ! You go Pete! Need more Pete jokes please ! 👍😊

Great show Pete!! Love the tractor work!!😊

👍👍👍👍👍👍😃😃😃😃😃😃 thanks for sharing Pete, really enjoying this series of episodes, take care

You film these video's so professionally and you are so comfortable in front of the camera I am amazed that you don't have your own show on cable. Like PBS, etc.......Well done! i really enjoy watching all your shows.

I'm going to rebuild my 1950 G John Deere this winter

I've been a mechanic over 35 years. Do I have critical issues with what you're doing? Yes. A lot sometimes. Do I or am I going to say anything? Nope. You're doing just fine. And that tractor will turn out beautifully and run even better. Carry on! Love it!!

Happy to see you again mate hope you are all doing well Joe

The good news was that you won't be done by Christmas! Maybe not for you, but for us voyeurs it is. Glad to see that "pot" metal/aluminum didn't go totally bonkers on you and you were able to tame it. Again, thanks for taking us along with you. Best wishes for you and the family (including the critters).

My husband and I enjoy watching you it's a part of our daily ritual in the evenings. I absolutely adore you and your wife and we've took a lot of your tricks and applied them to our farm.

amazing that old felt could last 100 years

Pete you are one of my favorite channels. I get to see every end of farming. I admire your humbleness in showing your mistakes and your calm demeanor. Always a delight to see a video of yours pop up

Go Red Power!

Your videos are outstanding! Narration is good with some humour thrown in. Visually everything is well lit and in focus! Very refreshing not hearing excuses about lighting or forgetting to turn the camera on or an incoherent voice over etc. My neighbour has just delivered his John Deer 2120 to my garage (towed and pushed). It needs at the minimum a new starter and clutch. Having only ever worked on one tractor before I am going down the KZfaq rabbit hole. So far your videos are by far the best. The only mechanical content that I have seen that comes close is Land Rover Time done by a german couple. In the words of Kung Fu Panda - " There is no extra charge for awesomeness".

Excellent video Pete :) super work on Farmall Super C tractor video rebuilding also enjoy your day working on it and love humor you have on toaster oven heat pulley up so funny to also Lol to ! I know one mechanic in my area he use Old Cookstove farmhouse and people used years to heat pulley up in were food cook or pots heat on use hardwood for wood heat ! So funny even use make food eat plus coffee to drink to plus cold drinks for Summer season a fridge plus tools store Lol it funny and great humor too! He taught me lots over years and work on projects together too!

When I took Auto Mechanics at an Institute in Rhode Island, back in the 70's, for 1.5 years.... the Instructor warned us about "Form-a-Gasket"..... "Only use it as a last resort...!" It formed a tight seal.... but if you ever have to take it apart again..... sharpen your chisel...! =)

Pete don't worry we're all with you through every step. As they say slow and easy will assure a good job.

I like your style Pete. Really enjoying this series . 👍👍

What a great job. Really injured your videos. Keep up the great job it gives me a lot of joy and relaxation after a long day at my job to watch you at yours God bless

Nice cant wait to see it working in your farm pete nice job

Looking good it will be in the field before too long can’t wait to see it all completed

Mr Pete I have to say you know your way around them tractor. I'm truly impressed. Love your videos

Wonderful experience watching & learning , engine over haul especially GREAT , as a collector of Super Seiries Farmall had 11 of them at.one time / THANKS PETE ! ! VP MN.

Pete, I have to say that I really enjoy your videos. The tractor rebuilds are incredible, not to mention all the other aspects of being a successful small farmer.

Fascinating videos rebuilding the tractor! I’m impressed about your mechanical knowledge and your patience. You seem calm and not anxious or stressed if things don’t go perfectly well the first time. I also enjoy your farming life! Thanks Cosmo from Billerica, Ma.

Love watching you putting the tractor together!

Jaguar did the same thing until 1988. What a pain. I understand. That exact operation is what got me started working full time on jaguar in the dealership. Paid 19 hrs to pull the engine and replace the rear main seal.

Hi Pete,Ed from Vermont,your Super C is looking awesome

With the timing cover, one of the things I used to do when assembling engines, was to use a body hammer and dolly to flatten the "cone" that forms on the inside. Then also use the largest washer or Valve cover type bridge washers to spread the load out across a larger surface area.

This was a great video. Thanks for taking time to make it.

Thanks for the video, always enjoy watching and learning!

Great video. Taking care of the little things in the beginning makes the job so much more professional in the end. Good luck Pete.

Love watching the rebuilds...I have rebuilt some older muscle car engines and really get a kick out of the process. Cleaning everything is no fun though. lol

Excellent video. Nice explanations of the process. Have a great rest of the week.

YUM YUM - Baked Pulley! Now fortified with Iron!

More good information. Enjoy watching every video.

yes..enjoying the season. The season of rebuild, colder, truncated chore duty, everyone is in closer to the house and we can concentrate on being ready for spring when it all starts again. Always fun pete!

Enjoyed the video. Like how you do the tractor rebuilds and the taking care of the animals. Great video. Keep up the great work stay safe and good luck.

Thanks for another video. Fan from Kenya 🇰🇪

You have a great temper for teaching thank you for the videos. Very informative helpful and relaxing to learn 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

Put some tenderize on that baked gear you will be surprised at how good it is.

I have a recommendation for heating parts before installation. This past August my wife and I rebuilt the final drives on a JD 5400 tractor. The outer bearings on the shafts had to be pressed off to put them on new axles. The repair manual suggested heating the bearings in oil to the temperature of 350 degrees. My wife came up with the idea to use our electric fryer. We had some old vegetable oil from a past fish fry. We dropped the bearings in and in 15 minutes they were so hot they slid on without a fuss.

I love this Pete, it's fascinating to see just how much work it takes to restore these tractors.... Really enjoying the videos and all of the farm work you do.....🚜

Looking good for a 54 year old!

Very enyoyable...I find this rebuild to be fascinating. I can swing a hammer and use a saw, but can't begin to do the type of work that you are doing on this project. Thanks so much for sharing.

Started in GM dealership in 1979. Because I was the "NEWBY" I somehow got all the jobs the other tech/mechanics did not want. I remember the "rope" rear main seals that were so much fun to install while it was dripping oil all over you. They had a special tool to pull the seal into place. Now this was replace with a two piece push in seal that was easy but leaked in a couple of months.

Hey Pete, ANOTHER EXCELLENT VIDEO!!! As I said before I am not what you would call a "mechanic". I know my way around things, but never really did get into the whole "engine building thing" and have very little knowledge of how things truly work. But your videos go a LONG WAY into explaining those things to me, and I always leave your channel feeling a little bit more knowledgeable about things. So again, I have to say "Thank you" for what you do!

Thanks Pete, another very informative and entertaining video, keep them coming mate. Down under

Looking really great Pete,you are a Master builder.👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

Hola amigo Peter!! I love watching your videos! Keep up the good work, and I hope to see that Farmall run and do some work soon! Saludos from Mexico City.

I love rebuilding engines, and you are doing it like I would. Technology has come along way since 1950, so many sealers, etc. thanks Pete

Good move with the floating oil filter.

You narrate really well its very easy to watch and listen to your videos. Thank you.

When working with sheet metal parts, I like to use a ball pien hammer on the back side of the bolt holes and tap them down to just past flush too help realign the surfaces between the holes.

How on earth did you ever learn how to take this engine apart and rebuild it? That’s an amazing amount of knowledge to have and remember. Congratulations on a great job!! ♥️🙏🏼♥️

I'm assuming you like that rotating part of the engine stand. If only they built the engine stand a little sturdier. I enjoy watching your engine building and tractor work. I wanted to tell you about a video I saw some years ago. A guy was assembling an engine in Germany and before he put the oil pan on, he went and sprayed oil all over the inside of that engine. I thought that was a very good idea and that I would do the same on my next rebuild.

LOVE YOUR PATIENCE PETE :)

Great video Pete, keep it coming!

Coming along great, she is going to look and run like new, can't wait. You and Hill take care and see you next time.

Another awesome episode to the series! However long it takes, Pete, I’m in!!!

Nice episode. You are coming along pretty well now. Odd how I do pretty much that same things when building anything, including engines and transmissions. It is so much easier to pay close attention to even the littlest details now, than to have to take it part for something forgotten. Thumbs Up!

Needed one of your videos today Pete, thanks. Have a good day

Like your video’s I love working on old tractors 👍👍👍🙏🏻

Pete nice Job, your the best professor I've ever seen. That C will look and work better than when it come out of the shop in Chicago Illinois back when it was new. Thanks for sharing all your knowledge Pete.

Pete love what you are doing. You remind me of a technical school instructor I had in the early 80s

Very entertaining and informative, not that I do those repairs. It's nice to hear what does go well, but also the problems you encounter and how you resolved them. Wondered why you hadn't painted the parts? Ah, staying tuned, till next time!

Excellent work Pete. Your an inspiration to all us IH fans. I hope this restoration means your going to find shed space for her so she doesn't have to live outside in the rain and snow any more.😀 I'm looking for an engine block for a French built FCC just like that. If anyone knows of one, let me know.

Looking forward to seeing it run hopefully the timing cover seals up it should but you never know when using just silicone 🤞thanks for sharing

really enjoyed the instruction of the building of the motor. have a great week end

Great job. Love watching the rebuild. Greetings from Germany🚜

It is so nice watching you work on tractors I like the fact you have normal tools like most of us. You do really good work and thank you for sharing your knowledge on these old tractors.

Done a lot of head gaskets. Sanding is the way to go. Figure eight

Love watching the rebuilds and the time and care you take to make everything right.

Enjoying the season and the series!

Enjoying watching you work.

I did so many of these same things when I had to replace the timing gears on my '55 Chevy six cylinder. The difference is I only raised the engine up off of the motor mounts instead of taking it loose from the transmission. The oil pump is very similar -- the distributor fits into the top of the slotted shaft and my engine does not have a governor. I did not replace the rear main seal but what I did was a big enough job. The engine runs but I had a fuel starvation problem for some reason so I dropped the fuel tank, cleaned and inspected, painted it and have ordered a new fuel line to run from the tank to the pump. I am now doing some body work as much of the sheet metal in the trunk was rust and the trunk latch bracket broke. After I get the new metal welded in I will hang the tank and hook up the new line. I love the way you take your time to make sure the task is done right. I would like to know (perhaps you could explain in an upcoming video) why tractor engines have governors and auto engines never have. What exactly do governors do that you cannot do with a throttle?
