Painting Tractors & Smoking Brisket

Pete!! I am sure I speak for many when I tell you, I watch your videos because of you, your outlook, your character, your honesty!! Please don't change

[@allandart20]

You very much remind me of the days as a child going to the car club and watching my dad restoring a British 1956 jowett Jupiter, very fond memories. Alas the car is sitting in a garage in rural France. Thank you for bringing those memories back.

[@Orange_is_a_good_color2]

Agree completely

[@barryiowa2226]

Pete I’m a 60 year old farm boy from the farming capital of the world (Iowa) and been using those red tractors since I was 10. Don’t change anything, it’s a pleasure watching everything you do. Thanks to you and your beautiful wife for the entertainment. God bless the American farmer….

I love when Pete stops and then goes to the barbeque grill and fires it up for cooking up the rewards for another days hard work! 😂

[@domthomas1002]

Keep the channel just the way it is. I was raised on a brand new Farmall "H', as a kid, on a dairy farm in upper Pennsylvania. My dad loved that tractor. Since then, my dad has passed to be with God and all of his friends. But, the "H" Farmall has been totally restored and is stored in a climate controlled building along with our 550 and 560 Cockshutts, 190 Allis-Chalmers, and last but not least, both Ford 8n and 9n. All have been restored. Thank you for the videos. I love watching them. Keep up the great work and don't forget to enjoy life. God bless you both.

I second that the insight you provide and way you share what you know is priceless...Please please dont change the channel or split the channel into two. Tractors and the rest of the fram....

[@billwinterlk777k4]

Pete, don't make too drastic of a change in your videos. The variety is a good mix of the farm content and restoration. Something of value for those who watch for either subject without an overwhelming amount of info on any specific topic. Well done as is.

[@pdrphil8159]

My dad & I started buying old tractors out of barns, tree rows, ditches & just about anywhere... We'd get what we could running & sell it . I realized that at one point most farms had a tractor or two that stopped working & simply were parked because they didnt know how to fix them.. Most often very little was wrong with them & for those that had serious problems we parted them out .. My dad & I enjoyed it & no one was happier than my mother . It got my dad out of the house & my dad was not easy to be around growing up.. In fact I avoided him because he was hateful & never failed to criticize.. But he taught me about things at every opportunity . He's 85 yrs old today & Im near retirement . My son works with me now that he finished college and we love it .. The biggest difference between my father & myself is that I could'nt wait to leave home & my son used to ask me if he "had" to leave home .. I told my son he was always welcome , but that he would want to leave home at some point . The one thing that kind of healed my relationship with my dad was oddly enough , tractors . I still remember certain ones that we got running & the thrill we both felt after pulling an old tractor outta the brush & making it useful again..

Pete, what you are doing is leaving a blueprint for future generations of enthusiasts. As long as your channel is available they will be able to see how the master did with a perfect amount of explanantion.

[@keithwest2575]

Pete, I have been swamped working for a bit and am running behind on your videos. Now trying to play catch-up, and have quite a few of the tractor rebuilds to view. Saw this one this morning and had to take a break (at work) to watch it. Not having seen the last video, but listening to you comments, I will interject my 2 cents worth. One of the main pleasures of your channel is the diversity of subject matter. Your family, your family business, and your love of machinery and your sharing ALL of them is what I find as the main reason that I look forward to any new posts that you offer. Of course, your personality, Hillary, and your family also are major contributors. So will close by asking, leave well enough alone and thank you for sharing yourself and your family with the 437K viewers. It is a pleasure to see all of you when available. Take care and stay safe.

Pete my friend..... having lived here in Texas for 40+ years (yet a native New Yorker) I must tell you that the brisket looked mighty righteous!!!!! You can tell good brisket just from the way it slices. Good job sir!!!!

On those early tractors, it is amazing they could tell the difference between the different shades of red. Everything was black and white!

[@EdwiinMargery]

Conflict is the gadfly of thought. It stirs us to observation and memory. It instigates to invention. It shocks us out of sheeplike passivity, and sets us at noting and contriving.

[@prestonmiller9552]

Nothing better than getting down to the nitty gritty of how things can be accomplished. My grandpa used to tell me when I was a young lad, "it's not the work you do, it's the finished product when you get it done right that brings the most satisfaction." As the years went by for me, I can see the wisdom more and more in his statement..

[@mcadamsrandy]

I could almost taste that brisket. Good video Pete!

[@Orange_is_a_good_color2]

Hey Pete, happy you’re not doing another channel. What and how you do what you do is just right the way it is.

[@bthreet2000]

Been drawn to your videos because of your passion. Found your channel while trying to show my kids videos of cutting hay to explain what I did as a teenager. I grew up doing farm work, and working on the equipment that goes with it. I am so grateful for the work you put into the details you include in your videos on the tractor series. I love the animal videos as well. I have the Super C Farmall that I learned to drive on. Someday your Super C video series will be a useful series for me to revisit. Dad passed of complications from Covid in 2021. He had taken apart a 706 that had lost its reverse gear. I have taken interest in the 806-transmission series because of that. Dad's old tractor will hopefully be one of my future projects. Also priceless to learn of your sources for parts, tips, explanation of the workings of each system, and your homemade tools. I look forward to every video you post. Take your time, never feel like you are obligated to get a video out, and we will all be here when you get around to it! What a great channel!

[@fredsmith2193]

Amen to Pete in everything he does is so precise when he is restores those farmalls,I always look forward to each one of his videos .Keep on keeping on Pete

[@3v249]

I love the amount of detail. Thank you Pete for sharing the method you use. Very informative to someone who had no basis in which to start painting my mechanical jungle.

[@Antieau4]

Pete: I to enjoy all aspects of your channel. I am not mechanical at all, but love old tractors. I enjoy you breaking them apart and explaining the "what & why", and "how-to". The explinations of what each component does and how it functions is great! Very educational! It makes me want to go get my uncles Farmall 230-WF and tear it apart... Your finished work is some of the best detailed work I've seen. I go to a lot of tractor shows and auctions. Then, the fact that you work your tractors on your farm, and don't just keep them for show,... That's even better! You do not need a second channel. I love the farm videos too. The seasonal mix is good. Farm work, Shop work. Just make your content. Do you!, and allow the viewers to decide what they want to see from you. Don't sweat the YT numbers. You are still a draw with a large viewing audiance. Thanks Pete for all you do!

[@callmebob9895]

Pete just keep doing what you are doing, I love your channel as many of us do, the only thing that should change on your channel is the seasons.❤

Pete, I just wanted to let you know, that the MD restoration, just blew me away. I still think it’s the most beautiful tractor, that I have ever seen. I understand about selecting the correct color, for the correct tractor, but I love the color of the MD. You use all of your tractors on the farm, so I think it’s not so important, to get the correct color of paint. Just use that beautiful, MD color and the tractor, that you are working on, will be gorgeous! I can hardly wait to see your current project painted and finished. Thanks to you and Hillary for all of your hard work and for bringing us all, great content. Stay safe and keep them coming. 👍❤️🙏

I am 35 years old and have had chickens for many years but because of you and your videos we wanted to get some beef cows. So we have three acres, ( literally just a few acres) and we purchased two and a half cows One heifer, one cow who is pregnant. The heifer is one year old. cow is registered Dexter and so is her calf. Heifer is half Dexter half jersey. So we just wanted to say you inspired us. Where we live Hey, is readily available and with the rise in beef cost we want to be more self-sufficient.BTW this video was a perfect example of you just being you, Don’t ever think it’s not good enough!

[@bmanferlife]

Pete, I say do you. Do not worry about the comments of this channel. Only the positives. It's impossible to please people on the internet, Just know with every upload you have a loving, caring, and loyal fanbase. Regardless of what you upload that it will always be there and continue to grow. I've noticed over the years how the bad comments have some what gotten to you a bit. For every 10 people who love you there will always be a negative Nancy. Focus on the good and let the bad slip through the cracks. I have loved this channel from the start and always will. I wish I could help with any negativity that comes your way because it is so ridiculous you even get a single person to do so. Your channel reaches out to many and we all LOVE ya'll. Maybe stop reading our comments. It could help the process. Do what you love to do, and we will always be here.

[@TheOtherPhilip]

I’m planning on moving onto a 10 acre property in the next few years. I bought a 1962 Farmall 140 which will need to be restored within the next 5yrs or so. The reality is that the way of life that you live and I will live does not separate the farm part from the mechanic part. It’s all one life, and the fact that it’s on one channel gives a much more accurate insight into your way of life. And if nothing else, I appreciate that.

[@carlolson1203]

Pete I know you are a stickler on paint quality and colour. Then as you say what they used in the factory in 1947 is not the same formuli. No lead and chemicals just are not used any more. I agree that paint for metal over the years are so expensive. Then you do what you can to come out with a great compromise. Again thanks for the knowledge and entertainment. No words for the brisket as I do not have desk top smell A vision. Stay safe.
