Finishing But Not Starting | Farmall Super C Restoration Episode 20

[@cecilkoselke7878]

The Bob Ross of farmall. With a smooth, easy demeanor, "We'll just paint a happy little tractor." Inspiring work, Pete!

[@haroldhaugaard410]

Wow, what a great job you did and the decals really enhance the paint job, it looks like it just came out of the showroom ! OUTSTANDING JOB

[@rickkucharski3211]

As the friendly neighborhood city- slickr here I am loving this tractor. I had one like it when I was 4 years old but mine was kid size and all cast iron and my PTO was two foot operated pedals. I have a picture of me sitting on it in our driveway. When my family eventually moved we moved to a house that was on a hill. And when I outgrew the ability to sit in the seat I turn the tractor around, sat on the hood and went down the hill that way with rear wheel steering which needless to say was kind of weird. So I got many years of use out of it. Seeing this one completed I just marvel at the beauty of these things.

[@hiddenvalleyfarmstead]

Pete, your attention to detail is off the charts!!! We just love your tractors and property. Watching you for the past several years has me dead set on getting Dexters also! Thanks again for all you do!

[@David-1-33]

[@rosejohnson452]

When I restored my Farmall I have a new appreciation for those who do it. Great job Pete

[@jimsgardensandrabbitry]

Pete, the old girl looks amazing. Have been following along on this process. I kick myself sometimes for selling my old Super C and H. Enjoyed mowing roadside and working a small farm with them. No matter how cold it got here in central Maine, they would always start. Look forward to hearing her purrr. Many blessings to you and your family.

[@aaronwarner2762]

Sure hope there are new Pete's being born. Now sure how many folks can take over where you leave off... You got some serious knowledge man...!

[@edavery2998]

Man! Does she ever look sweet. Great job once again. I am very proud of you.

[@ralphhofland7439]

Your restoration is so impressive as is your attention to detail. Love your videos …keep them coming!

[@leethiel5790]

your patience is amazing,

[@normahird9059]

Pete..... love the word 'doodad'... I thought that I was the only person that used that word. The cows mooing, the stupid dad jokes, the patience that you have, the calmness of vlogs ... all of these are so appreciated. One of my sons would sit and watch Mr Roger's Neighborhood on PBS with total amazement. Now I know why. I find myself watching your vlogs with the same awe. Thank you for this.

[@dennisdole1764]

Great job buddy! Now on to the 🐖 and 🐄 and 🐥 😂 I love watching them eat 😊

[@michaelmanbeck9159]

Hi ....Pete..appsolutly beautiful restoration..alot of many long hours of hard work..it will give you many years of service for your farm..the tractor is happy now...Well done...

[@donniewolfe8103]

Pete,Wonderful job on the Super C.Time to bring on the 756😁

[@andybeckham2745]

Great job Pete. Got her looking good !

[@b.neallee7042]

You are just a good man. Can't hid heart. I wish I had the same relationship as you and your Dad have. That's why I'm hoping you and your son can rebuild the old truck. Use all the parts that makes it safe and secure. Please use all the max seatbelts and breaks so you and your family are safe and proud. Neal

[@dlzastera]

Hey Pete, A+ job. Crops are green, tractors are RED. 👍

[@Tom-jd1rm]

From an old mam who rebuilt 8N Ford when I was 17..do enjoy your videos. Thanks

[@richardhutchings921]

I love IH equipment. Grandpappy used to say "If It Ain't Red, Leave it in the shed". Nothing more beautiful.

[@donpeterson9282]

Perfect. You have a brand-new tractor!!! You bring the same precision to your tractor restorations as I suspect you did to your architectural drawings, renderings, and management. Both represent a work of art, the restoration, and the drawings. The Super 'C' looks better than it did on the showroom floor. Probably runs better also. What a beautiful work of Art. You are indeed a Master in all you do. It shows in your restorations and it shows in the detailed planning that you do in running your business. My Vo Ag Instructor in High School would have had us on field excursions to your farm. He also would have done just about anything to get you to come into the classrooms when we were planning our projects and mentor and instruct us. Of course, we didn't have computers in those days (the 1950s,) but we did have accounting paper and graph paper which I liked because it helped me stay organized. Mr. White also used to admonish us to marry a bookkeeper and get out of her way and let her tell us what we could afford to do. Lastly, he preached succession planning and signed and notarized documents. Good advice for any business venture.

[@jcamisa50]

She is lookin mighty fine Pete!!!!

[@lekinwyo822]

Pete, As the owner 8 antique tractors , I can appreciate the challenges of just keeping them all running . Your level of mechanical knowledge and restoration ability is truly awe inspiring.

That tractor looks like Christmas morning Pete! Wow! I don’t think IH even payed that much attention to decals 😂

[@mikemccrank1649]

It is an amazing restoration better than new

[@klazyy641]

Now, that is literally a "cherry" restoration, lol. Nice work---those decals would have had me chewing hay, but you motored through it like you've done that before. Thanks for a fun episode, Pete. I would not let the wifey watch the seat rebuild---she might be inclined to redecorate your brain knob.

[@inthejcurve7968]

Pete, your tractor is absolutely beautiful

[@Wheelloader__]

Super C looks awesome Pete.

[@graceveenema4762]

Incredible! I watched every episode although I know very little about mechanical things. I wish I could be as methodical and patient as you. She’s a beauty.

[@hiddenvalleyfarmstead]

I'm saying the exact same thing!!

[@harrisonchevy4452]

Hi Pete, great restore video. I’m hooked on these videos. I know you are passionate about this work. I think that anybody who likes to build things and has an appreciation for machinery loves what you do with these old Tractors. Thanks so much. Have a great 😊 day my friend. God bless.

[@terraintactic]

Truly a world-class example of equipment restoration. What a great achievement, I know I was not alone in grinning ear-to-ear seeing the pride on your face at end. Bravo.

[@timothyrill3825]

WOW.....Looks brand new! Unbelievable quality, attention to detail and perfection at its best!!! Thank you for sharing and taking us along.👍😃💖

[@jml9464]

Man that's gotta feel good. She's a thing of beauty, that's for sure!

[@stevechaudoir9052]

Pete, Your attention to detail (including measuring to assure precise and historically accurate position of the decals) is commendable. Thank you for continuing to provide us a certain comfort that comes from how you live your life.

[@ericfunnell1901]

She looks fantastic. Great work Pete. I want to hear her purr. ASAP. Thank you sir.

[@regjames1839]

Nearly ready Pete, we are all waiting for start up day, she is looking really smart mate. Down under

[@4vinos]

Have been watching your videos but have not written any comments. Now, as I see you with your baby making her beautiful, seems like you paint her with love and it shows. Your videos are of excellent quality. You and or Hillary must spend hours editing them. I truly envy you and your way of life. Please just enjoy your watermelon and spit out the seeds. Thank you and Hillary very much because I enjoy viewing your work on your farm. May you continue to produce your videos knowing they truly inspire us to know how you have evolved. .

[@CountryViewAcres]

The Super C looks amazing, Pete. You did an awesome job!

[@CPthetooladdict]

I feel like I had been waiting for a month for this moment so excited!!!!

[@hiddenvalleyfarmstead]

Haha me too!

[@adolfojg1]

Yes. I quite enjoyed it. Thanks.

[@rayinpau.s.a.6351]

Hi Pete , out of the hundreds of videos on KZbin , I have not seen anyone do a finer job on a tractor . it looks amazing .

[@robertmoore6700]

Man, I loved this. The ole Super C looks like she is brand new.!!. She looks spectacular! I can't wait to hear her crank up and take her out for a spin. Great job Pete. So informative in detail as to how you did everything. Let's do the 756 next. Ha.

[@billswallow1804]

I spent many, many hours on our Farmall Super C, growing up on our dairy farm in SW Pennsylvania in the 60s. We had a Super C (1953 or thereabouts) and an H (from 1940). When you converted yours from wide front to tricycle front, it became a twin to ours. That tractor was one of my best friends from my childhood. Watching this restoration has been absolutely fascinating. I now know far more about the Super C than I did while I was driving it. Of course, with only the two tractors, we couldn't afford have one out of service long enough for an overhaul like this, but seeing the results of this rejuvenation have brought tears of joy to my eyes.

[@blaircox1589]

I've been binge watching for the past week since KZbin recommended you! Love your channel. I was watching a certain channel of a city guy who started a farm in Vermount. My grandfather had beef and pigs and watching the other channel, I was constantly shaking my head every video. Yours? Reminds me of the farm and just enjoy watching every minute. Thank you!!!

[@BlueStar1952]

That look on your face at 19:40 is priceless, like "Yeah, I did that".

[@graysonsfarminglifeaustral2778]

Cant wait to here her start up!!!

A master artist and craftsman showing his most recent masterpiece. Well done, Pete, very well done. 👍🏻👍🏻

Superb watch your steady hand placing the signage was very impressive just love your enthusiasm for Farmall’s . Since watching you I love them to, I can imagine how you look forward to driving down the road with great pride , good luck Pete with the start I will be watching .

No tractor or experience. I still am just thrilled to watch a guy who loves what he is doing and has the knowledge, skills and your amazing attention to detail that results in a literal work of art.

Welcome to Pete's Not Math channel. LOL She's looking good, Pete! I'm looking forward to seeing her 'outstanding in her field' come summer.

[@reginaldwinsor2759]

I couldn't help but put a smile on my face when you put the finishing touches on her with the decals. What a job!

[@vmcougarintn5035]

She looks beautiful! Of course, it won't last long, so take a picture now. LOL

[@deankurth7622]

I can almost see the finish line! was great watching this series. The future generations sure will be pleased that you documented this, so others can give it a try

[@iacolifamilyhomestead3564]

Mr. Pete, you've completed yet another gorgeous restoration. It looks fantastic. The best part is that these machines will now be around long after we're gone for the younger generation of your family to use. Amazing job!

[@hschultz123]

Just wanted to say how much I appreciate your videos. You have no sponsors and product placements. You provide entertainment and honest advice through example. 👍

[@ericsheriff4317]

Its a "How To.." of how to of when you do things right, it is worth the reward! ITS FABULOUS!! Another great tractor restoration Pete.

[@jenaswartout4399]

Thanks Mr. Pete. Now I know how to put decals on the right way! The Super C is a work of art. You are truly a master.

[@tomscott3939]

now you need to be in a parade or show!! nice work!!

[@thomasbyerly4305]

You did it again Pete!!!! They did not look that good on the show room floor. You are a great example to us all.

[@maryricketts8526]

Very interesting to watch this series esp since I'm a city girl. I loved the look on your face when you finished putting the decals on and sat down. You looked VERY PROUD and rightfully so. Good job.

[@samvalentine3206]

She looks absolutely wonderful, Pete! Great job... thanks for sharing this with us. She looks better than new! 👍

[@jonhofstetter4120]

The money shot. The completion of hard and tedious work. You are very gifted, great job. Thank you for sharing your time and video's.

What could be better than this, nice hot mug of chicken soup, snow blowing outside my window, and Pete 's finishing touches on the Super C. video. man! that's what I call a good day.! Just love your attention to detail. and your patience level when it comes to sticky bolts/pins/etc. and the Farmall simply looks gorgeous! Thanks so much for taking the time to do it and these videos pete. made my day! for sure! God speed. ECF.

[@Joe6packAmerican]

That grin on your face was priceless. Beautiful work Pete. Thanks for sharing!

Nice restore. Pete's beaming from ear to ear over his little baby. It's a beautiful piece of machinery

[@JoeGraves24]

[@jlynn473]

I believe your metric conversions were spot on! Can't wait to see her start up. I would love if you included before and after footage in that final video. Thanks as always, Pete.

[@divyakfm1]

Was wondering "What translates to 17.2 kg; 37.92 pounds" that is spot on? Need some clarification from Pete?

[@brandonthompson7895]

Nice job Pete! We can really see the satisfaction of accomplishment on your face at the end!

[@johnfreeman1408]

Hi Pete, as a person who loves automotive things and grew up working on cars, I would like to say you did a great job on the Farmall. You should be very proud of the work you did and the care you took working on this beautiful machine. I think the older vehicles have so much more appeal than the newer ones. Give me an older car or tractor any day over a new one.

[@mzimmerman1988]

It is very pleasing to see an old workhorse be restored like this. Really looking forward to seeing it back in operation! Great work :)

[@danschneider7369]

I start every episode by hitting the like button because you NEVER disappoint, Pete. The Super C looks fantastic and I can’t wait for installment #21 to hear her roar to life. You know, these are the simple pleasures in life, that you capture with your wonderful channel. It is SO appreciated.
