Betty Is Back ALIVE!!

[@davidepool5884]

It’s good to see Betty back in the lineup. She’s been down for a long time. Hopefully she’s ready for anything you throw at her for a long time to come.

[@mysterj1]

I’ll bet Chris does too…I imagine that particular repair probably was close to five figures.

[@billsargent3407]

@@mysterj1 yeah he has more in to fixing her then he paid for her...However if 'Ol Betty is reasonably sound, now she can earn her keep!

[@michaelschuenemann3505]

Betty the Loader is working Brilliant and Yes it's back ALIVE ! You sounded so very Happy and another Workhorse back to Your Arsenal ! Two Thumbs Up ! Many Cheers from us in Australia !!!!

[@ryanhoward1013]

Jeremiah you have to be the best mechanic in the world to get ol' Betty up and running again thank you very much. I know why Chris has you as his mechanic he is the best and hires the best. Again thank you for the excellent job you did. And Chris thanks for sharing with us 😀

[@josephdriscoll8527]

Good to see her back in business, you are so blessed to have Jeremiah keeping your older powerhouses going.

[@heatherlane9270]

Great to see and hear - good old Betty is alive. No doubt about it between yourself, Dirt Perfect, Diesel Creek and C&C Equipment one will never be bored with what next will be restored to working order. Love it and great video.

[@dixiebourne752]

I see Mike's still with you .I am pushing 70 told my daughter before I die I would love to meet the two of you.

[@dawnbradrick6289]

@@dawnbradrick6289 I'm 80. Just be patient.. You will get there.. Everything that still works ,, Hurts,, Hahaha. Every thing you you ever injured comes back to haunt you. Even the big toe you stubbed and the thumb you mashed as a kid. Haha. Takes an hour to get moving in the morning. Haha. But sunshine still feels good. Just be patient. Haha.

[@genesispuredeaf2390]

What about meeting them after you die….Are you up for that too? Everybody going to the same place?

[@Vickie-Bligh]

Yay Betty! Nice to see the ol' girl back to running. Glad Mike was with you at her rebirth! I just can't stop smiling.

Oh Betty, it’s so good to have you back girl😃 Thanks Jeremiah, you are the man😊 Can’t wait to see her back working on site. Take care & cheers 🐨🦘🥰

Chris looks like the proud parent of a brand new baby!

[@doclull1989]

Glad to see Betty is finally feeling better. Will be nice to see her working again.

[@talibirkmanis5727]

Woo Hoo !!! Betty's back - why am I so excited about an old dozer ??? Its amazing and will probably out live a lot of modern machines ! Love it .

[@rosevillerod]

When Betty grunts the earth moves! Love that girl!

[@wendymorrison5803]

Betty has her mojo back. Thanks to all who helped her be her true self. Chris, you look after her really well. For some machines we are not owners but caretakers, Miss Betty may outlive us all.

[@karenheartoriginal3783]

Awwww Chris, your sweet Betty’s back!! She’s actually a lot more dainty than I remember but she sure packs a punch! Excited to see y’all working together.

[@allenbeaulieu7077]

Oh man Chris! I think I am as excited as you to see Betty back on her tracks! Man, she is a BIG girl! And powerful. Great to see her back sir.

[@davestuart6593]

Chris thanks you,Betty thanks you,we,thank you! Great job on repairs!

Nice to have Bouncing Betty back again. A good mechanic is worth their weight in gold or motor oil, which ever one it is. Thanks for sharing.

[@adriancartlidge4018]

That's fantastic news about Betty. She sounds great.

[@1herbert100]

I'm one of those people that have been pulling for Betty all along. You are gonna be happy when you have stumps to pull or dirt to move. Go Betty.

[@randallday7737]

👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 Holy smokes, I felt the ground shake all the way in Georgia she's a beast..!!

[@jerryb953]

CONGRATULATIONS! Betty is a Beautiful Girl.

[@cturner7050]

Congratulations, she's back 👍 That's one happy camper!

[@ETennScott]

Betty is my favorite among all Chris's machines. Congratulations and much respect to Chris and the old' girl!!!

[@damonwalker1719]

Betty is a beautiful track loader 🥰🥰👍

[@clintonmississippi2108]

It's great to see Betty up and running. I look forward to seeing her work moving trees and dirt. She is finally fixed and good to go. Sam

[@terryrogers1025]

Sure is nice to see Betty up and running. Let’s see now, its looking like you have a CAT family going here, the D6, the 977, and the 953. I would say that about sets you up to do all kinds of things, the 6 is still my favorite CAT though. Thanks for the ride along sir.

[@davidcokley1929]

Well, Chris was grinning from ear to ear in that video. It was awesome to see Betty up and running again. Hopefully she's good to go for a long time to come. I think Betty would have been a big help on the Bealy Good pond job. She could have dug loaded dirt in Barney and save some wear and tear on the 220. Stay safe out there Chris.

[@orion3267]

Thank you Jeramiah.

[@chrisgalliher497]

I’d love to see you and Dirt Perfect on a project again. It’s so cool to see you both work together and come from two different states. It’s strange how different each state does things and how no matter what you both just know what each other needs to do to get it done. Two great people together here. Love both y’all’s channels. I watch you both every night when I get home from work.

[@pauldillinger2286]

Chris i love and respect how you take older machines and spend you time money and resourses to bring them back better so they can go to the job and do the work they are supossed to. Much respect for that. Betty is back in town you tubers.

[@Dean-ry2bh]

Glad to see Betty working again. You have a good mechanic, they are hard to come by.

[@dixiebourne752]

Chris I sure am glad Betty's back up and running sure have missed that big girl .

[@robertconreux8079]

Wow Betty is her real self again, what a machine your persistence has really paid off! Good call Chris!

[@ralphjelomono9068]

Nice to see Betty just about ready for service. I am sure you have plenty of work lined up for the old gal.

[@burtoncummins8970]

Glad to see and hear Betty up back and running . Hope she's fixed now, so we can see her work and make you money

[@nandi123]

Yay! Now Betty needs a makeover like your haul truck. 🚜

[@markfiges999]

mmmm? In Chris's shoes I'd want planty of $$ back on Betty before I spent another cent I didn't have to.

[@robertforrest7956]

Chris is happier than a Hog in a waller!! 🤣 👍🏻👍🏻

[@nathanlam2936]

Do i love the sound of betty and a old cat diesel coming to life lol. I cant wait to see her back in service again. She is looking strong💪 and ready to take on any job you put before her

Finally! Betty's got some power! Hard to believe how much was lost to that bad torque converter. Now let's put her to work!

Love to hear and see that beautiful Betty back in the game! I’ve got such great good memories from the 70s! Thank ya Chris!Now a nice Clint &Kevin paint job would be nice Lololo Enough $ for now

[@keithk8698]

I’ve always said Mike your a good friend. Friends like you are hard to find. It’s too bad you didn’t get to finish the job but always good laughs when you two get together. Have a safe drive back home brother Mike and I’ll see you on your next video 🤙🏼

[@williamfenner9915]

I am very glad to see that Betty is doing well. Hopefully she will keep going on for a long time.

[@grahamgeiger3206]

So glad Betty's back. Was really worried you were gonna give up on her. Shes my favorite as I got a real soft spot for old track loaders.

Welcome back Betty good to see you back at it and you’ve made Chris happier then a kid in a Candy store 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

Good to see Betty back alive. Thanks to the mechanic, For all his hard work.

[@haroldhawkins9370]

Chris good to see Betty up and going and back on the job, she looks strong.

[@LatitudeSky]

Probably a lot of newer viewers have never even seen Betty before. It's been a long time. Props to Mike. One of the things I really like about his channel is how he and his crew the care to get good camera angles for whatever is going on. Hopping up on that mulch pile while it was being moved is totally Mike. Natural cameraman. Love the collabs with LD18 and Diesel Creek.

[@lonnielengkeek7]

With all the money you've been spending on equipment repair it's great to see a smile on your face, and Betty's very happy also she'll be good to you in the future she's got a big heart! Barney's going to be happy to see Betty, they'll make a good pair👍😊🎥

[@HughzieTube]

Jeremiah will be glad to see the back of that fix! Many hours will have been spent cursing it given how much he had to take apart.

It’s great to see Betty running again! Thanks phor the update!

Awesome 👍👍 thanks Chris for the video take care of yourself and Winston.

Yeah happy birthday Betty... so good to See she ist back in Business...

The Beast, she's alive!! Great video Chris & Mike.

[@makingithappen5178]

Hello there Chris 🚧🔥🚧. So nice to see Betty again. It was in May that she stopped, if I remember correctly. A good rear weight probably wouldn't hurt though.

[@george8873]

Holy smokes, Betty is a beast. Don't recall her pushing so much this easily before the repairs. Looking forward to her out on the job sites.

She is strong. Kind of makes the D6 look like a wimp🤣.

Hopefully you will get to use Betty a few times before the years over. She looks like she's ready to do some pushing. Some type of guard on top Betty bucket would also help tremendously.

I'm not a mechanic, but I play one on TV, and I'm going to say the new torque converter is working just fine. Betty's a beast again!!! Now if the radiator will hold coolant, she should be ready to move mountains!!!!!

Next pond or large clearing job we get to watch Big Betty in action again. I kinda forgot just how much she can push and scoop. She's definitely a beast at what she was built for. Now She's gotta earn back what Chris spent getting her working again.

[@robmatthews7972]

Yaaaa !!!!! Ol`Betty is up an` running. I know she needs to work to pay off her repair, but think about a little bling or shine up her paint. Now the question is - which one can do more work in 8 hours? Ol`Betty or Wilma dozer?

My dad wore a few of those 977s out in his day! K model L model awesome machine brings back a lot of memory’s there’s nothing better than hearing that turbo whistle! A little trivia for ya ! Who made the largest track loader ever! Komatsu ! The D1555 it was a monster!
