    This series has been more entertaining than any television show I've seen in the last 5 years. Thank you so much for sharing. I'll never rebuild a tractor, but I have enjoyed learning the history, mechanics, and process watching you restore the Super C.

    If I have said it before, no apologies for saying it again. Thank you for all your amazing posts. Just a few words with little effort to their writing but heartfelt. Happy Christmas to you and your family. Love from the UK.

    This man is an awesome metal worker, he's real good after more than 20, or 30 years,Awesome work Pete, in every phase of the repair work.

    The next tractor you do could you show yourself cleaning the paint and rust off the sheet metal? I think it would be neat to see the process you do to clean the metal up.

    As a retired mechanic, I find your videos to be very soothing to me, this tractor is simply a work of art. :)

    Painting the underside prevents rust too, from condensation. My father, a diesel and auto mechanic, took the chrome bumpers off his brand new Chevy in 1966 and coated the backs with Rustoleum. 57 years later...no rust, no pitting, just beautiful chrome bumpers. Thank you for these videos Pete. May God bless you and your beautiful family, at Christmas and always

    Pete. Glad to see you post today, it's been 6 days or more since your last post. We were starting to worry something may have happened. Glad everything is good with you and your family. 😀

    To be honest, your tractor restoration videos are my favorite. I love your attention to detail, and at the same time, not perfection, to some others. Your restorations are perfect for you and I love them. Thanks, as always Pete.

    How good was this video? well before I watched it I went out and made a nice mug of Chicken soup, got few crackers. got a fresh cup of coffee, came back in laid all my goodies out, got comfy in the shack (I'm a Amateur Radio op so spend all my retirement in the "Radio Shack" swivel chair and all. then say back and had the time of my life watching and savoring every moment of this video. you sir! are beyond praise!. I'm pushing 80 so no more rebuilding anything for me. If I can't lift it and put it on the bendh it doesn't get done. so small pro-jects is the name of the game for me. so I live vicariously through oyu Pete. thank you so so much for taking the time to make an old man like me so happy. God Speed. ECF

    Sir when you tire of the farming life, you know you got a job in antique tractor restoration. I'd be willing to bet a collector would pay top dollar for these restored tractor's (someone collects them someone collects everything) you do a darn fine job. you should be proud of your work looks brand new.

    @john1cutlass1986 Год назад

    All the prep work is what separates the pros from the quickies. Anyone can slap new lipstick on a pig but a takes a true craftsman to make a silk purse out of a sows ear. I love the tutorials and am just about to pull the trigger on my own restoration. Thanks and Merry Christmas!

    Merry Christmas, to you and your family, Pete 🎅🌲
    I enjoyed watching you do the bodywork on the tractor. I don't think people who've never done it don't understand the importance of the human touch when it comes to funding all the high and low spots you have to feel for. Sometimes the eye can deceive but touch never does.
    The Super C is starting to look amazing 👏 👏👏👏

  • @tomashbaugh8891

    Pete- you know that feeling when you buy something new (like your truck) and you want to keep it perfect for as long as possible…..and then you get a dent…….well now you don’t have to worry about it with the “c” you already have a dent…..now you can sleep and not worry about it. I think it looks great, you do a very nice job! Thank you for sharing. Nice video

    Good morning Pete. Another great video. A great example of all American persistence and ingenuity in getting difficult tasks done. Before studying architecture I owned a sign making shop.

    That is just an American work of art and treasure. I can't believe how they were straight forward engineers when building these pushing 100 years old. I shouldn't call it old, she is in fact new. If I had the choice of buying brand new and a full restoration, I would take yours without a thought. I bet every older farmer would look at this like the sports swimsuit edition. Lol. Great job.
