PICKING UP 1958 CASE 310 AND MORE!!!

[@lindagolembieski7405]

We were worried about you but glad to see you back again

[@oedsnicolai4989]

Good to see you're back out. Nice piece of machinery and a smooth haircut. 😄

[@davidarnette327]

Please make a video of the tobacco stick saw restoration if possible. I remember as a kid watching farm workers tie tobacco leaves to those sticks and hang them in the tobacco barn to cure. I couldn't stay in one long because as a kid the tobacco smell would almost make me pass out. Never used tobacco because of that...which I'm thankful!

[@SMoore-js6fy]

Good to see you out on the hunt. One man's junk is another man's treasure. the Case will be a nice addition to the collection. The tobacco stick mill is a wonderful piece of local history. Great find!! Best regards from the Pacific Northwest ~~

[@kirtvanburen8094]

😅Haven't watched in a while looks like your wife Needs more salad and less potatoes on the table haha good show thanks

[@davemiller6893]

Good day Jonathan, I haven't watched this latest video yet but thought I would just say hello from Thornton Hough, Wirral, UK. Summer is just about starting over here and everything is lovely and green and fresh. It sure makes a difference to be out and about in the sun. Let's hope it's a wonderful summer for us all with lots of time to enjoy our families and friends. As always your videos are brilliant and informative. Kind regards to you and your family and all in North Carolina.👍

[@stokerdon1020]

YAY! Glad to see another Johnathan Video! It's been a few weeks. I was gittin worried about ya.

[@robertmack7116]

I just Googled Thornton Hough. It looks lovely!

[@davemiller6893]

@@robertmack7116 Thanks Robert. Never been state side yet. Your country is beautiful and certainly and on a far grander scale than little old England. It amazes me how you Americans think nothing of travelling huge distances and think nothing of it. I have just returned from visiting my daughters farm n Carlisle and I thought travelling 130 miles was a big journey. I have been a big fan of Jonathon more or less since he started. His can do, nothings a problem attitude, is amazing. I would love to meet him one day, he's quite a character. Anyway. Take care Robert.

[@frankwurth5375]

You have one heck of a winch to drag that dozer on. Those little Case units were the first generation dozer for Case. It's basically a Trerra track remake. Terra Track was a small post war builder in Churbusco IN. The builder was a war refugee from Germany who built machinery there before the war. He bought up a lot of Army Surplus supplies and put together the Terra Track. Case got interested and made him a golden deal Merger! The motor in those were a Continental H260 or 277 over head valve, same motor as used in the Massey Harris 44. Some early ones still used the side valve Continentals. Case never recovered from the merger's management but it did put case on track to the construction market. Tenneco picked up the company for loose change and brought it back to the giant it is today.

[@aarongrabowski3775]

That ducking comment was gold Jonathen

[@dogwalkfinds9899]

ATC (American Tractor Co.) designed and built that machine as the Terratrac GT25. Case bought out ATC in 1956 and renamed it the 310. Nice machines!

[@jonathanw4942]

I used a case 1000 with terramatic drive. It was a atc design also.

[@kirkpalmer1709]

My dad has a Case that looks exactly like this one but the model number was 420. That's what was written on the side of the battery/tool boxes and that's the number he referred to when ordering parts for it back in the day. His is well beyond worn out and is parked permanently.

[@billywhite3020]

Great find

[@rewalton46]

I was thinking just yesterday that I haven't seen anything from you in a while. This video takes care of that! I'm ready to see more of the steam engines.

[@bigfoot-id8bv]

We didn’t see Jonathon because it takes a week to get his bi-annual hair cut, they wore out two weed walkers.

[@Dancing_Alone_wRentals]

I thought the tobacco stick cutter was cool, but the steel was even better! That steel means there will be fun projects ahead! Have a good weekend everyone.......I'm taking the camera to yard sales.......maybe I'll find a chain too.

[@n1r0l]

Re: Tobacco Sticks: The tobacco is cured by heat after harvest. This was done in "tobacco barns", an enclosed building where a fire was built in the bottom and vented at the top. The heat dried tobacco to where it can be sold at market and further processed without rotting from moisture. The tobacco sticks were thin sticks to which the tobacco was tied along its length. The sticks were laid upon poles that are placed at varying levels in the barn. They are moved around to get an even cure on all of the tobacco.

[@ervingoertzen7233]

Wow you are really building up a nice collection! Hope to see it one day and take pics ! Great video as always Jonathan!

[@BobSmith-mj7ik]

You got a really good deal on the chains. Can't wait to see the machine run.

[@SteamCrane]

You done good! Fun loader project, rare stick cutter. That load of beams and chain is like gold. Correct answer, buy it when you see it.

[@richardcline1337]

Great to see you still doing the things that make you happy and give us a chance to keep up with your doin's.

[@sierraspecialtyauto7049]

"That's not a pile of scrap! It's an ARCHIVE!"

[@MatthewBerginGarage]

That is a good strong winch on your roll/off. It moved that little beastie without a care in the world.

[@non-nefarious]

Johnathan, your talent and knowledge amazes me. I've been watching your videos on KZbin for a long time and I always enjoy them. Keep 'em comin' bud. Thanks!👍🙂

[@shake9574]

That tobacco stick cutter is awesome. Looking forward to seeing it working again

[@Rebar77_real]

One man's junk is another man's junk he can fix!

[@mattthescrapwhisperer]

I had a Case 310 dozer years back. Good machine. Nice haircut Jonathan! On the log turners, the short one is a cant hook, and the long one is a Peavey. I have a Peavey just like yours that was my dads. I used it a lot as a kid growing up in the Pacific Northwest.

[@regsparkes6507]

Good stuff Jonathan,, hopefully see another old tractor rescued and restored to operational condition. Wow, that old tobacco stick cutter looks to be in really good shape,.. Id ;love to see that all freed up and painted to original shape too. BTW no steel these days is `scrap` to me either ,..I`d grab all this stuff that I could get my hands on too.

[@michaelguinn5736]

Evening Jonathan, sure glad you come across this vintage equipment, I hate seeing this stuff scrapped, I do understand there comes a point where the piece of equipment is wore out, but maybe be good for parts for another machine. Y'all take care! God Bless!!

[@tedium37]

Me and you both flinched when the cable jerked loading the Case. Nice score on the metal and as my granny used to say "You got your ears lowered"

[@w.rustylane5650]

Dang, what a deal on those chains. Cheers from eastern TN

[@RXRSawdustStation]

Good to see you're still kickin'! Thanks for the content. Very interesting machines!

[@Chr.U.Cas1622]

👍👌👏 Oh WOW, simply fantastic! Extremely good purchases, all of it. Of course I'm eagerly looking forward to watch the next video. Best regards luck and health in particular.

[@YenaS-l7g]

Nice doser and scrap metals and chains ⛓️ and logging stuff 👌 😊

[@MissouriOldTimer]

that chip out of that belt pulley won't be a problem to use the way it is,, you are right get the scrap iron if it's cheap, new iron is ridiculous in price. you do have a good supply of cant hooks as well.

[@Axial_Andrew]

Good to see you this morning Sir!!!

[@Formula455resto]

That's a good machine right there. 👍

[@ironcladranchandforge7292]

Scrap steel is never junk!! Great buy on the chain. It's always good to have lot's of chain around. You did good Jonathan!!

[@oldmanleggott1860]

Someone here ages ago was dragging old rusty chains along a gravel road to clean them, a policeman pulled him over and asked him why he was pulling the chains the guy turned and said well I would look pretty f###king stupid trying to push them lol

[@grumpyoleman2152]

Thumbs up on the Beard Trim! Maybe you can be a positive influence on Vic!

[@stevecr8934]

I'll take your intro music every time Jonathan. 11 Chains with ends $40. And every piece of steel is worth the money. Thanks Jonathan. I know we will be listening to that case most anytime.

[@simonsummers9194]

Love these video's....should do a few more like these again.Back to your roots

[@HODGEPODGEDODGEGARAGE]

Nice find on the Case, I bought two International T-340's a while back. *Handy machines for sure.* Don't blame you for buying the I-beams and other structural steel. Take care 🔧🔩

[@hallssalesservice2561]

I love those little loaders. I have the identical loader, when I saw the terra track on the counter weight I got pretty excited. mine still works great, i use it quite a bid around the house. honestly not the most increadible machine for loading but it will pull just about anything and the hydrolics are stronger than the have any right to be. Awsome find man

[@theodoredugranrut8201]

Thanks Jonathan good score on all of it hope we will see more of the tractor.Central California watching

[@djm1953]

great to see you grabbing a case 310 loader havent seen to many of these over the years! I still have the 310 gas straight blade my father bought new in 1959! I was six years old then im 70 now still using it !! thumbs up n good luck!

[@handyandy6488]

SO good to see you back - please don't leave us so long this time! I needed a top up of your can-do optimism!!

[@andrewmantle7627]

I am also from the great Pacific Northwest, and I've got to say you look pretty good all trimmed up Jonathan.

[@deanross4090]

I love old cast iron machines. Nice find.

[@edwardmartin3069]

That is a very handy sized track-loader. It can be very useful working around all the stuff you are building. Great find, looking forward to seeing more about it... The tobacco stick mill is really a treasure in the rough. It will be a perfect match with one of your smaller steam engines... Keep up the good work and stay safe out there....

[@mikeembrey9176]

You know where to find the good stuff nice find 👍🏻🇺🇸

[@AndrewHCann]

Excellent video Johnathan W :) nice find on 1958 Case 310 and hopefully get fully working on again and amazing machine too!

[@johnel1083]

Nice fine, I sure miss those days when I was out on the hunt for old treasure

[@paulcaliendo9402]

Excellent find!!! Glad to see you again

[@waynegiguere1475]

That'll look really nice in that new section where you going to put your steam engines and small ones can't wait to see it you have a good day

[@jorgefernandez-mv8hu]

Glad to see you back at it again. That was a great haul. All useful stuff for what you do. See you on the next one.

[@Ken_in_Wisconsin]

Good stuff. I always enjoy your videos Jonathan.

[@curtcooper9447]

What a great find can't wait to see you demo that for us thanks 😊

[@timatwell3728]

Wow one chain would be that price for a short one you done great on that find for sure in the right place at the right time that don't happen to many times hardly ever for me keep up the good work and keep the video's coming

[@Tools-sm6ju]

Great find, it was great talking to you at the Old Mill Crack-Up

[@jhonditch4269]

1958 almost new the fact that the track moved mean it almost a run and drive.

[@markbehr88]

Thanks. Love to see more videos on this.

[@mikewinkelman7015]

We all missed ya , glad your back !!

[@aarongrabowski3775]

That machine used to cut 1x4’s would look amazing restored. I appears to be in really good shape.

[@bart9859]

I understand that. Every chance I get I'm on my computer looking for acutions in my area. I would say at least 70% of my tools I have brought at an auction. One they are way cheaper than new, two a lot of them are higher quality then what I can buy in the store today. As far as steel I'm the same way, junk yards, auctions, and where ever I can find it and save a buck, I'm there.

[@tertessa]

Another great find 👍👍👍

[@Kickinpony66]

For a minute, I thought you were going to get a free tree with that loader! The tobacco stick cutter is very interesting; the cone (with the chip) I would imagine is where a belt would go around and be powered by a PTO from a tractor, or Willys Jeep. Neat stuff!

[@robmatthews7972]

Almost didn`t look like you at first with the short hair. Good save on the dozer and the tobacco stick cutter. With the current price of steel - any discount is great.

[@rdeanbenson2214]

Another great practical entertaining video!

[@farmerbill6855]

I was hoping for a closer look at the 310 and an update on the pickup truck cab install. Oh well, tomorrow is another day. Thanks for this. Best regards from Indiana.

[@LAP1050]

Jonathan good seeing ya. Getting that CASE running again will be a nice series.

[@davidlester6092]

Great score JW!!!!!!🏁🏁🏁

[@DDRighteous]

Glad to see you posting again. Stay safe.

[@daviddamico4288]

Nice score on the tractor and the Tabao cutter..

[@melsplace4007]

Awesome find on the tobacco stick cutter!

[@retireddec04]

I imagine you'll have that Case running in a week or 2. That's a nice sized machine.

[@P80P2T]

Nice work Jon! good quality steel there..

[@steveblack1753]

Good find mate, lots of goodies 🤙🤙🤙

[@timhanson2080]

Nice to see you Jonathan. That seemed a little scary pulling up that Case. You are a professional. Thanks for sharing 👍🇺🇸

[@ervingoertzen7233]

Finally lol !! Great to see some of your videos again

[@richceglinski7543]

Man that old International roll back routinely sees some heavy loads. Man I gave 10 bucks for a 12 ft 5/16 chain at a flea market . You got em for less than 4 bucks . Good score

[@sallybrokaw6124]

You are right that bucket is an oddball. I try to buy decent piles of steel at auctions myself. My problem is I forget what I have at a 2nd property lol. AL B.

[@heathvice8365]

You got a steal on them chains!

[@kellyeigner3708]

Can't agree with that more, good to see you again

[@chriskulpa4056]

That's an AMAZING deal on all those chains. Looks like some are past their usefulness but buying new chain, I think I gave like $30 for a 30' 3/8 chain from hobo freight several years back just to have a tow chain.

[@cliffhaupt5413]

That was quite a haul on the metal and chain.

[@bobjoncas2814]

...LOOKIN' GOOD, KEEP SAFE AND WELL

[@somerandomguy3868]

Nice find, chains are good money

[@andersslangerup7464]

Nice to get a new video.

[@steamboatwillie935]

Jonathan got his ears 👂⬇⬇ ✂ lowered !

[@johnhansen4550]

Great find on all accounts. Hope you are feeling well.

[@charlesstarlin6354]

Awesome always cool stuff always thanks 😎

[@crherniman]

I just had to buy 70ft of chain. One hell of a deal you got there!

[@stokerdon1020]

YAY! Glad to see another Johnathan Video! It's been a few weeks. I was gittin worried about ya.

[@tresfingeros]

I f anybody can get that dozer moving again it will be you👍 The saw would definitely be a good addition to the steam museum.

[@nferraro222]

That chain on the tobacco cutter is interesting. Looks like each link is stamped to hook into the next piece and exactly engage with the teeth.

[@SteamCrane]

You see a lot of it on light duty ag machinery like old planters.

[@ldean-du5im]

Sure nice to see you! Hope to see you more in the future! Always enjoy your videos. Thanks Johnathon stay safe!

[@andrewmantle7627]

Good show Mister.

[@cornfieldcustoms]

Pretty cool find, I dig the track loader for sure

[@overbuiltautomotive1299]

A+ as always blessing

[@krispetersen9595]

Always excited to see what you have been up to, fun to see what you bring back to your place

[@outfitsgarage88]

Nice find Jonathan

[@brocluno01]

Good stuff, good episode. I have the I-H cousin to that Case. A T430. Good machines for middlin property owners. Gas is OK as long as it's not every day, all day ... 🙃

[@nedflora1154]

Good to see ya. Nice haircut 😆
