Steiner and Majic Paint Fitzgerald 841 Tractor Facelift

[@garywhite8369]

Definitely a winner, Great job plus great video, Thanks for posting video

[@daveprasse6643]

I grew up with a 961 and a 981 tractor ... Dad currently is restoring a 640 tractor... We did practically everything with the tractors ....we had practically all of the Ford attachments for those tractors ... 2 row rear cultivator a 4 Row front mount cultivator ...we had a rear mounted 3 point mower and crimper we had a 4 ppont blade .. even ran the Ford 540 Bailer with them

[@troyeager8877]

My dad has a 195? 8 N that was fully rebuilt and painted. I used it once with a brush cutter and hit a stump and it launched. Scared him so it has just sat in his barn for 13 years. My son and I want to buy it from and get it going again. Thank you for the tips. Look forward to seeing more.

[@robertpsarudakis3474]

Beautiful job, nice work taking your it all apart. Man, I'd be afraid to go back in the woods w/ that and mess up that pain, that is a show tractor now!!

[@kurtmede3296]

I used your video to paint my old 1944 Ford 2n tractor with Majic paint and it worked out great. Thanks for the video. Also a Steiner Tractor is the place to go for all the parts you need.

[@randyscrafts8575]

Sharp looking tractor. Wish I could paint my tractor like that in less than 16 minutes.

[@rclamb04]

Im a Ford guy so Im sure I dont have to tell you how I feel about this tractor. Awesome man!

[@matthewself2674]

This brings back memories! My grandpaw had a 801 4 speed diesel with the spin out wheels. We used the heck outta that thing and now it belongs to my uncle who still has it. Great lookin paint job!

[@jimmyduncan7650]

Just a good honest machine I'm picking up a 841 diesel today that's going to be my day to day tractor. Great video thanks

[@jimmyduncan7650]

@Phil Hall I bet he was really pleased . Nice work. I just picked up a 1986 f600 with 32k miles but gas 370 v8. Been sitting a long time. The 841 tractor that I got is a great runner, been using it often.

[@mugnumps7910]

I have a 1953 Jubilee with 70 hrs since total rebuilding. New paint. I love my tractor.

[@scdevon]

That's one of the best looking Fords I've ever seen. Nice work!

[@SteinerTractorParts]

+scdevon Thank you!

[@MOJOESBROS]

Great looking ford started using the Steiner catalog getting started on a 75 ford 3000 gas

[@geraldtuck8864]

Great job from some great guys.Dan and Guy Thanks for sharing.

[@ylwpyro9549]

That really is a great-looking tractor. I've seen how well tractor restoration projects can come out when the owners put in a little bit of time and effort to making it look attractive. I know a farmer who restored a vintage International 140, and still uses it. It looks absolutely stunning.

[@SteinerTractorParts]

+YLW Pyro Sometimes a little bit of extra time and effort is what sets it apart from the rest! Glad you enjoyed the video.

[@patrickbradley4339]

Got my 841d sitting here took hood off going atter up in Canada budski! Great advice

[@patrickbradley4339]

She was free 99!!!

[@WalkerOutdoors]

That's a beautiful piece of Machinery I have a 1955 850 Series without power steering and I absolutely love it great job I wish I could refurbish mine

[@curtiscf1986]

I had a 56 ford 850. I loved that tractor. I now have an 1841 ford industrial tractor. Which is basically the same thing as the 850. Just with a Diesel engine and a heavy front-end loader.

[@CNCJoeFromRomeo]

Sah-Weeet!!! Great paint job. One of these days - I gotta paint my brand new 1950 Ford 8N

[@58_Powermaster]

Awesome job!!! I have a '58 861 that runs great, but needs some hydraulic work done. I'm fortunate enough to live only twenty minutes away from Steiner's...replaced the emblem, proofmeter and a few other minor parts on the road to a full restoration. For now it's our workhorse, but down the road I hope to get it back to close to the day it rolled out of Dearborn.

[@SteinerTractorParts]

+58 Powermaster Looking forward to helping you finish the restoration :) Thank you for the feedback!

[@thomasr.miller5553]

2016. What a BEAUYT ! You guys got the RIGHT STUFF.. WE LOVE OLD TRACTORS..THANKS for making this 841 ford video.

[@SteinerTractorParts]

Glad you enjoyed it :-)

[@thomasr.miller5553]

OK.

[@jefferylivingston9003]

Awesome job" I just test drove 2 Ford 800 tractors for our homestead. Looking to purchase one soon" would love to do a restore paint job like this " Awesome info share " thanks so much for the knowledge. You just won me as a subscriber "

[@marshallbarkema1677]

I have a old child's swing set you can have to hang parts on to paint on if you want to come to Iowa. I'll even leave the chains hanging on it for you!! R.O.F.L.M.A.O. OH, I forgot paint job looks awesome dude.

[@TSemasFl]

That's a nice tractor, nicely done.

[@donnlowe9129]

Beautiful job, I appreciate anyone that shares their knowledge and talent.

[@chrispark4310]

Awesome job! Love your tractor.

[@mosriteflyinfingers9252]

SUPERB restoration job on that Powermaster!

[@SteinerTractorParts]

+MosriteFlyinFingers Thank you!

[@pnotuner1]

It absolutely deserves a good paint job.

[@otecfabricationstynagh6365]

We have none of these tractors in Ireland. Lovely job.

[@misunflowerstyle906]

wow! i ordered a steiner catalogue. thanks for the video. I don't know anything about tractors. I didn't ever think of one for my dad. he will love it. I think i am gonna surprise him with a new seat and steering wheel.

[@SteinerTractorParts]

mrshammerhankus, let us know if you have any questions or need help ordering.

[@misunflowerstyle906]

Is this place like AutoZone or O Reilleys where you can walk up to a counter for a part? or is it like a pick and pull? I found a shop half hour from my cousin's by Lansing.

[@SteinerTractorParts]

We are located in Lennon, MI. Our store hours are Monday - Friday 8 am - 5 pm, and Saturdays from 8 am -12 pm. All of the parts you see on our website/in our catalog are available at our store. Hope to see you in the store one day!

[@jpmay4318]

Ausume guy it looks FANTASTIC, I LOVE IT! Great job.

[@SCfanIam100]

Wow it looks like it just rolled off of the showroom floor. Looks great guys!

[@MustangFastback]

Oh my GOD that is a beautiful machine!

[@Hiker63]

A work of art! That’s parade quality!

[@Dextamartijn]

Love the old Fords , I had an 8N and traded it for a 1959 Fordson Dexta. I did this because I needed life PTO. One day I hope to restore it.

[@ronaldanderson3816]

I bought the same tractor, 1957 Ford 841. Now I just need for you to release the full restoration video.

[@JasonSmith-vd1sz]

Wow…what a beautiful tractor. That’s art work!

[@randycordes464]

You done a awesome job on that tractor

[@l.alopez9138]

Awesome video. I just picked up a 741 and will be restoring it.

[@danielvrana9444]

Great job!!! Just wanted to say HI Guy!! The camera man!!! Lmao

[@lostinmyspace4910]

So here we are in 2020. How is that Majic paint holding up? I am on the fence about paint brands, and not sure which direction I should go.

[@thesmallenginekid]

beautiful tractor now. Great job.

[@Lanninglongarmmowing]

WHAT A BEAUTY!!!! I wish it was mine. Great video!!!!

[@SteinerTractorParts]

+Love2boat92 Thank you!

[@Lanninglongarmmowing]

Steiner Tractor Parts Welcome.

[@ericgrinstead52]

I am looking for one like that with a loader as we speak. If you have any advice on where I can get a restored one, that would be great. That tractor turned out AMAZING!!! Truly great work!! The older I get the more I can appreciate this kind of Americana. Thanks for the great video.

[@gattbe5611]

that's too pretty to take into the woods...nice job..

[@ant1704]

that is a beautiful tractor and it will be a shame with the first scratch but tractors true calling is work

[@shaunwood301]

Looks Beautiful!!!!!!!!

[@aternst]

That is a beautiful machine.

[@ScoutCrafter]

Awesome theme music to match that awesome tractor! 😃👍

[@shawnwelcomer6551]

that is one beautiful tractor!! wow looks awesome

[@SteinerTractorParts]

+shawn welcomer Thank you!

[@mudlifejunkiepr3937]

That is a beautiful tractor

[@kayvonmansouri]

Thanks for the great video! What did you do with the old rusty bolts and nuts?

[@butler386]

Just found this video. Dad had a 1953 Jubilee and now my brother owns it. I understand you really like the Magic Paint but you are missing a very important point. The paint seems to work there but to really recommend the paint maybe you should ship the tractor here to see how it holds up to the Florida sun for a decade or so. Just throwing that out there. Let me know when it will arrive. Love those old Fords.

[@RustyZipper]

Any Enamel will turn chalky after 1-2 years in the sun. Needs some clear coat to cut the UV rays

[@jameswalker9244]

You mentioned doing videos on how to restore tractors. I have a 57' 601 that I would love to fix up but not sure where to start. Any suggestions on learning?

[@OhioOutdoorJournal]

Did he clear it or just single stage? Nice gloss on fenders didn't see when painting.

[@KubotaBXathome]

Absolutely incredible!

[@cedarlaneenterprises6258]

Looks amazing! Love that machine

[@Dr.SnowRemoval]

Just today I painted my bucket :)

[@jimcushman5060]

Nice job, looks like you have the wrong exhaust elbow on the manifold. The elbow on a 172 CI is bigger than the 134.

[@buddyboy1953]

Each time I view this video I am amazed !!!!

[@randythomas3478]

One word....'Excellent'!

[@SteinerTractorParts]

Glad you enjoyed Randy!

[@teamwinterracing7150]

Great video!

[@bobbyemery1305]

Beautiful Great job!!!

[@filmismaximus2960]

Amazing restoration work!

[@SteinerTractorParts]

+Filmis Maximus Thank you!

[@MercedesDieselGuy]

What are you using for a respirator? Excellent work. You got some beautiful results there.

[@SteinerTractorParts]

I am not sure.Try contacting our friends at www.TeamFitzgerald.com who shot this video to see if they can help you out :-)

[@patrickbradley4339]

Great job beauty rig

[@jwanda10]

amazing job! beautiful

[@christianspain3015]

Beautiful!

[@smittys19daytona]

looks great, have an 8n as well I think the biggest project would be get all the little oil leaks seals ect repaired so it stays looking good one step at a time I guess

[@mywifesboyfriendisfire]

Ha! I hear ya! Mine had one up near the front of the block. I finally traced it to the governor - someone put it back together at some point without a gasket!

[@jjack010]

Great looking tractor

[@Showmeyoucan777]

Great job.

[@ksa5128]

I wish this guy was my Dad!

[@keriannehiggins2363]

How do you think that paint would be on my wood chipper ??.. and that tractor looks fine, very nice job.. thanks for the video..

[@markk1601]

It will look great for a few months, then it will fade and chalk terrible

[@RLGGIBSON]

You did a very good job .

[@scottycrippin2126]

I wanna know what kinda wheels those are on the dually. They don't look quite big enough to be a 22.5.

[@russellhancock9765]

Wow. It looks like it just came from the factory in 1953.

[@garyteague4480]

Wow looks wonderful

[@PurpleCollarLife]

Looks great!

[@learnaswegofarm2227]

Hello! I was wondering about an update on this paint job, has it faded much? Can you clear this paint and can you polish it, if it dulls over time???

[@RustyZipper]

You can clear over it, use a red scotch brite to dull the Majic. No you really can’t buff the enamel per se

[@ISEEORBS]

All the paint washed off after first rain.

[@fomoco1454]

Excellent job Dan! How long did the entire job take?

[@ThePheonix2009]

Awesome!!!

[@woodly1069]

Wow! Beautiful tractor!

[@franklinbrown8417]

Looks like new. Good job.

[@bad205]

That looks really good. I have an 801 and want to do the same.

[@aletahudson2130]

I'm going to paint my horse trailer with this paint. Do you always use a primer even when painting a painted surface? Do you lightly sand between the coats of paint?

[@daveyfromdownsouth7889]

im planning on painting a car with majic tractor paint. in wondering hows the paint holding up to the sun in regards to fading

[@RustyZipper]

Good for a year then turns chalky. You really should put some clear coat over it for UV protection. Speedo Kote makes some good quality products at fair prices.

[@knightnrmer]

I can't wait 24 hours between coats ... I'm not using the catalyst either . Reducing with naptha reducer at 50 degrees and shooting it ... I'm hoping for no problems cracking the paint ... Guess I will see what happens . I paint cars for a living .. 30 years . I'm hoping that evaporation is so slow that it won't craze . Crossing my fingers .

[@jacklowe3788]

How did it come out? How about reducing w/ acetone? harder make flash lot quicker- tac coat wait 20 min on decent day hit medium coat - Then wait but final coat wet-

[@donaldlingenfelter8944]

What gun do you spray with? I'm going to paint mine this fall. I'm in the middle of stripping it down right now. I'm having the block bored out and deck resurfaced.

[@alancummings5651]

Awesome job

[@jacklowe3788]

Looks Good - What paint gun & tip did use?

[@SteinerTractorParts]

We are not sure what was used on this... I would reach out to a local painter to see if they have suggestions.

[@benkanobe7500]

Fantastic! What silver did you use on the exhaust system?

[@SteinerTractorParts]

We're not really sure as this video was created by someone else. Sorry!

[@jamesmccann8127]

super job, looks great.

[@stevehertz4878]

I have a ? Can I take the power steering. Off and put it on my 48 8n?

[@highstepperARF]

No way I'd take that out in the woods again. I'd drive that to hot rod night at Steak & Shake.. 😎

[@ThinkerNotEmoter]

Wow. VERY impressive. Some day I'll do my Ford 3600 like that - blue, of course. How long did it take you to tear the tractor down to paint? Also, I've heard people use the term "paint bomb." I like that you didn't paint the black rubber, etc. Is it standard to paint the bolts and everything?

[@SteinerTractorParts]

Thanks for the comment :-) This video was shot for us by Team Fitzgerald. you can check them out at teamfitzgerald.com/

[@SteinerTractorParts]

Thanks for the comment :-)

[@rickydonaldson5567]

you did a good job

[@SteinerTractorParts]

+ricky donaldson Thank you!

[@hddm3]

wow just subed! great job! love your videos

[@Problematic__Hydrostatic1251]

9:46 the ratio is 1:8 for both chemicals. 1 ounce of reducer and hardener for every 8 ounces of paint

[@MusicandMachines]

I’ve primed and sprayed my Massey with the majic primer and red rattle cans. Cannot get the paint to harden. Peels right off.

[@MusicandMachines]

Phil Hall , I’m sure it will, but if you use the hardener, make certain that you use the appropriate mask or fresh air system. It has some BAD stuff in it. The Agco massey paint I used on engine chassis went on and stayed on MUCH better than majic.

[@MusicandMachines]

Phil Hall yes I primed first and did 3 coats with 24 hours in between.

[@SteinerTractorParts]

Thanks! Let us know if you need help with any of your tractor restorations!

[@robinbanks5734]

Why did you paint the pistons on the power steering? wont that paint chew up the seals.
