Satisfying Blasting Tractor Restoration 1956 Case 400 #2

[@chilillopikin]

It was so relaxing to watch the blasting process. Went thru half a pizza and didn't realized . Great video 💆🏽‍♂️👍🏽

Very cool! It’s amazing how the paint comes right off.

[@Biokemist-o3k]

I just invested in a Schraam Industrial Compressor similar to the one in the video. I am so psyched to start dustless blasting. It is still too cold here in Pa but as it gets warmer....

[@timwalls1452]

Glass medium has a closed cell structure that prevents it from sticking to the walls inside the lungs. It's then expelled from the body like any other 'normal' airborne particulate. However, lead based paint is a different story and it's highly likely this tractor is covered in it. Should be wearing full face masks for this sort of work.

Super sonic work

The final part in this series will be posted soon. It looks amazing!

[@tanksoldier9770]

awesome start ,do you have any info for an engine rebuild kit ? ,i was told my 400 was biggest tractor in the valley back in the day and had done tons of heavy custom work it still runs strong but is using up to two quarts of oil if i give it a good workout thanks TANK

I’ve got a 1969 Case 541 originally from Minster OH right down the road from Rockford. Are you taking new jobs/willing to look at some pics of it? It’s in better shape than the 400 in this series.

[@OhioLiving]

I am not taking on any new jobs right now but thank you for asking. Just built a new house and moved so I don’t have my shop anymore

[@Supertramp01]

Curious , who did you have blast it..I am in Ohio as well and want to have an 8n blasted but can't find anyone

[@OhioLiving]

Mobile Blast Guy. You can find him on Facebook.

If you look at 5:02 in the video you can see the side of the van and phone number

[@justspring3852]

Great job... where do you get replacement parts for an old Case?

[@OhioLiving]

There are a couple options but look in the video description and you will see the three places I recommend

[@jmudd5449]

When do you actually work on it, or are you have other people restore it?

[@OhioLiving]

I stripped it prior to blasting. Part 3 will show the process of replacing parts and we work towards paint. Subscribe and chexk it out when it comes out

[@OhioLiving]

The only thing i had somone else do is the blasting because that is a very specalized machine. 40k price tag..

[@akastonefaceddog]

Wear proper protection, unbelievable.

[@OhioLiving]

Are you talking about the company that did the blasting?

[@akastonefaceddog]

@@OhioLiving yes, that stuff is not good for the lungs at all. Full helmet fed with 100% clean air when I blast.

[@OhioLiving]

@@akastonefaceddog I don’t disagree with you but he said it’s glass and not sand so it was not a concern

[@akastonefaceddog]

@@OhioLiving I bet his lungs disagree! Nice job though, I hope you post more as restoration progresses, would like to see that running. I have a 50' grey ferguson to do for a customer, looking forward to getting it going again. Prices here in UK are going silly now for vintage stuff, it's harder to find a nice project at a good price.

Stay tuned more to come!
