It's a great feeling all the same. reviving an old car or machinery then litterally driving it out of it's intended grave is so satisfying.. If you love this as much as I do, and havent already, go check out "Vice Grip garage". That guy is AMAZING. He habitually travels upwards of 650 miles to a car or truck that has been parked, broken down for 15-30 years, gets the things running....then drives them the 600+ miles back home.. With a gopro in the vehicle time lapse to prove it. We're talking seized engines here... He litterally un-seizes them and drives them home. And other cool stuff too. While I'm recommending car channels there's also "Uncle tonys garage". He's a MOPAR guy. And there's "Junkyard digs". He's a younger fellow but he loves saving old cars from the grave.

I love this! Save the old iron!!! I got my tractor at an old nursery and it got put aside simply because she was old and they upgraded. She sat for near 30 years and became incorporated into a junk pile. I came in and got her started and rolled her out of $1000 and a chainsaw. I drove the old girl onto the trailer while standing bent over the hood while shooting ether into the air intake. She is near 9k lbs with the loaded tires, wheel weights and the loader. Was a little hairy without brakes too. Got her home and spent the next year getting her going again. No major parts involved, just a carb, new ignition components, and a radiator, new fluids... She has a burnt valve and that's probably why they parked her, but I've been using her for 20 years just the way I found her. Sure I need to tinker now and then to keep her going, but no major work, just elbow grease and willingness to keep the old girl going. Keep up the great work.

And back when they were aging out, it wasn't seen as real value putting that much energy into an old piece of equipment, the way it is today in the world of Chinese junk. So she became relatively rare because most simply did not care.

So, you traipsed out to the far rear of yonder by yourself, waded through a sea of blackberry bushes, mentioned wasps- nope, nope, nope- and set to fixing a long abandoned machine. Running your finger over a rusted, deteriorating rim with a fully inflated tire probably isn't TOO dangerous... this is almost a half an hour of you doing you and I have to reiterate how happy I am to have this to watch while I eat my dinner. I can almost feel the old girl quivering with excitement at having a chance at a life beyond the meadow. Fantastic. That little jump when she went into gear, and then her first movement out to the truck made me think of shelter dogs who are going to their forever home. Thanks for another rescue, and you're right, better she spends her final days in your hands, doing the things she was built to do.

Well done Marty . those were built to last (unlike many machines of today all electronic and needs a computer to run ) . What amazed me was how after sitting there for god knows how long you actually drove it out from the green grave it was headed for . Not sure if the PTO on that model is 2 speed . I know the "DB Cropmaster " has . Just a clean of that hydraulic filter and fresh oil and it will be good as new . Awesome video and i enjoyed watching ! Loved the sounds of native birds recorded with this video .

It's always going to interesting when you have to take a brush hook. Look at the positives, if that was in Australia you'd have met twenty great big & deadly tiger snakes in there.

Lovely work again. The thing about this one is the quality of the paint-work on it even after so long in the open. Likewise with the external steel forgings. It must be fairly dry in that place you found it. Great work tracing the sources of spark loss, especially running the distributor with the top off. The hand of experience indeed.
