Built From SCRATCH! MASSIVE Tractor Selling At Auction - Big 4-30 Tractor - 2021 Pre-30 Auction

[@duncansgardengarage3473]

I am so thankful for the people like Al that put the time and effort into restoring tractor history. The steering mechanism with chains is too cool.

As an old school machinist who's come up thru the ranks, as well as making the transition to the CNC world, all of his comments on the machining side of the project are spot on, including his one on his shop having a few pieces of equipment of unusual size. I like working for shops like his; that's why I like my current employer.

I have two Tappet / Lifter Cast iron assemblies made for this Big 4 . They have V 59 cast into the side . Both in very good condition with one partially cleaned , and the other with as found very old dirt and grease . Can someone pass this information on to Alex Fuselier ?

[@christianmccollum1028]

Can't believe how well it runs when turned all the way down slow!!! Amazing resto!!!!

[@TryAdaptLearn]

Amazing restoration including parts that had to be machined and modifications that will likely make the machine perform better. The painting is good work as well.

[@hypercube33]

This is so awesome. Never stop doing this.

A very interesting story of the tractor, Thanks to the artist guy and your whole team for restoring this wonderful technique for us. This is the story.

[@maakjar]

Wow that is a life long full of dedication to make that 😍

[@eddiephillips6740]

They don't come any better than this congratulation Sir for a brilliant job

[@leslie476]

Amazing piece of history. For all of you people that brought this amazing piece back to life, thank you! I can understand why the original owner did not like this unit compared to the steam power do to the lack of torque that the gasoline engines had.

[@lucastratoresantigos]

Thanks for share! Unbelievable restoration!!! Congrats from Brazil!

[@victoryfirst2878]

Great work fellas. I hope you got over when the beast was sold .

Watching old tractor, or even old car startup, shows that a certain level of mechanical aptitude was expected of all owners of all early vehicles to be able to start them. I can't help but think there are many folks out there that cannot drive a vehicle with a manual transmission, let alone be faced with a manual choke on their car would be at a loss. Not trying to be mean or anything, just mentioning how times move on. 😎

[@TsunauticusIV]

Interesting. So... all those guys that volunteered the time, money, and energy into helping him build that... will they get a share of what it sells for?

[@charlesuplifted5216]

Probably not Most farmers In the usa dont ask for money but rather have a back scratch policy You scratch my back I'll scratch yours Usually the favor will be returned later, he may help restore another guys pickup or help another guy fix a barn ect

[@TsunauticusIV]

@@charlesuplifted5216 you mean... “you scratch mine and I’ll run away and not scratch yours”. 😂

[@msdos5355]

Hell yeah. Luv it like a oxy 80. Green beans. Horse power

[@kingneutron1]

It's a beautiful looking tractor, great restoration but TBH I can't blame the original owner for going back to Steam ;-)

[@melchristian8876]

👍👍👍👍

[@davidfrench2653]

Interesting,. but unfortunately Alex could not keep his mouth shut and just let Al just talk about the tractor.
