Being the owner of my dad's Centauro 55, it brings me joy to see that tractor rescued, and that V engine has a unique sound. SAME was ahead of their time when they invented the 4 wheel drive that everyone uses today
@@stevesplacedownunder 2 days ago, i saw a Corsaro 70 on street, next to my car.:-) It was in good, original condition. Must be from end of 70ies or begin 80ies.... The corsaro was in normal use. It did not look renovated, but in very good maintenance. I could also see a sticker from the Same dealer. But certainly, I think, it will not be exposed to the weather. I know much people in my area which driving with Same from end of 70ies till begin of 81ies, like Minitaurus or Corsaro... which drive daily with their tractor around... But weather in germany isnt so rough... 😃
@@stevesplacedownunder Yes, it's not that normal to see a Corsaro on the road. That's it, why I was so happy. But my uncle, for example, often drives around in his Same Minitaurus (early 80ies). But he always had it serviced and paid a lot for it. Another part-time farmer always comes to the pub, where I go with his Same, late 70s. It's a bit tough, with the gears and the brakes... but it runs and is still used. We are in south germany, not so far from Italy. So in 80ies and 90ies, Same was a known Tractor.
We had a Same Delfino 35 hp 4x4 tractor on our vineyard, 2 cylinder 2.0L, ran on the smell of an oily rag and was incredibly reliable. Still going strong 16 years later, we bought it second hand, when we sold the vineyard in 2016! Did an awful lot of good work for us and my wife used to love driving it.
Hi mate. I haven’t heard a bad word about SAME tractors. I’m sure it did the job just fine for you both, and yes they are good to drive also. Everything is in the right place on them
I have run some of the larger Same tractors in Sweden (145hp Titan with a straight 6 turbo) and I also had to work on them and they were kind of finicky to tune and were a pain in the ass to get parts, BUT they were powerful and were decently reliable even under harsh conditions. Thanks for the video and enjoy!
I used to work with Same tractors in the 1970ies. Very good sturdy and strong tractors made in Italy. A bit rough to work with but really good stuff. I loved them!!
Just watched a video with the Same and the Zetor. You mentioned people say you talk too much but I enjoy hearing commentary and the back story of what ever machine or truck your working on. All you need now is a camera man or woman so you can have both your hands free. Keep the good stuff coming bro. I'm not the only one that enjoys it.
Hi mate thanks for reaching out. Yeah I like talking about what’s going on rather than just start it. I’d like a camera man but there’s not always someone around. It would make good content though. There’s plenty more to come mate and go and check out all my other ones. There’s a few there now. Thanks again
Most great tractors have caring, knowledgeable owners. Dearler in Pennsylvania,USA sold Zetor and Belarus,back in 1993, had 3 cyl Zetor from India and a Belarus 250, bought the 250, for 3 grand less, brand new. Still have it, never, and I mean "NEVER" failed to start in 30 yrs, love that Same V-4 air cooled diesel. Thanks for sharing 👍
You have to love the durability of this old equipment . It gets used and abused and with just a little mechanical foreplay it responds to its owner ! 😂 My father was an engineer at Allis Chalmers in Milwaukee Wisconsin after WWII . I grew up loving farm equipment .
I was sitting here drinking a Yuengling lager watching your video when you showed your beer. Sounds like you're gonna have to rebuild that starter. Cheers from eastern Tennessee
I love my SAME 105 Tiger. I was babying it to start with and it started to glaze the bores like bad valve stems. Me mate who worked at a dealer in the day said it was a problem so workm harder it cleared them up. I have some dealer manual s came with it. Don't let hydraulic oil leak out of implement s it will screw the transmission., A common gearbox problem.
Hi mate thanks. I’d say this one was never worked hard knowing where it first came from. It’s possible that that’s what contributed to the problem now with the engine. Thanks for advice on it👍👍
That's great, a lot of tractors are there dut this 96 Zetor is good. I have at home 77 Zetor. He has been working for me meny years. I like tractors, Thank you for the video.
woow amazing, 4911 it's very old tractor. it's nice see the Zetor in your country because we have these machines written in our history. in our country we have a many this tractors and still working. I like wait for next video. see you
Yes mate it’s a 4911 and it sat for at least 28-30 years so hopefully I can do a first start on it. I will put up a community post about it in an hour or so. Keep an eye out for it. Yes they are in your history so I’m not sure how many were brought over to Australia. Certainly not a common machine here
Thanks for taking us along again Steve . I dont get tired of this kind on content. That Same tractor didnt seem to happy when you first started it , but seemed to come right after a little running . Good to meet Roger . He has about the same body build as my dog Otis. Doesn't miss many meals . Dont forget to shut that fuel off mate ! Cheers
Thanks Scott. I think at least 2 cylinders are right down on call compression. I’ve swapped injectors between cylinders and it stays the same. It will work all day and has done like it but the fumes get to you. Glad you are enjoying the content. Roger sneaks up to where my parents live and my mum cooks him breakfast as well as dinner. When he stays with us he doesn’t get it because of his size😂 but he’s a great dog. He’s always about when we are playing with these machines. I actually did forget to turn it off. I called my dad because we went to Singapore the next morning and got him to turn it off. Thanks again
I drived such a model in 1974 - Fuel injection pump CAV England - since 1977 I owned any Same till today - in forest skidding with Tiger Six - makes a great job
Hi mate that’s great. Good to see you still have it. I’m sure they are great for skidding. Very stable and powerful. Thanks for the comment and watching
Hi mate no problem thanks for watching. I may do another video on it. A tree fell down behind my house so I might video the Sammy pulling it away maybe
You have some nice old tractors there. I don't know much about the two that you drove, but the old Massey tractors you have were sold half way around the world and parts are still available. Keep those old things running and they might out live all of us. Keep up the good work.
Hi Brian thanks for watching mate. I don’t know a lot about those ones either mate. I used to have the 6ft slasher on that zetor, as it was in this video, but since I bought the Massey 165 off the family I put it on that and haven’t regretted it. Such a beautiful tractor to use with the power steering and everything is so easy compared to the zetor. I have 2 MF 35’s also with the 3 cylinder Perkins in them, both great tractors. I also have 2 MF 30’s which are made in France(I think). Those France ones are very hard to find parts for mate. Thanks again mate and there’s plenty more to come
@@stevesplacedownunder Here in the US there are a lot of old Massey Harris and Massey Ferguson tractors around. The 135's are still popular with a bunch of people. They are popular with collectors too, so if you have trouble getting parts, see if you can make contact with some people here. I'm sure there are some people here who know of places to obtain parts or ways to fix old parts. Good luck.
Once I acquire it mate I will be doing just that. The people across the road own it at the moment but I will do another one on it soon because I want to test the injectors. That won’t help with blow by but will help it run evenly. Glad you like it mate thank you
Hi mate. It’s not bad stuff, for a mid strength anyway. I wasn’t aware that it made it all the way over to you blokes. That’s really interesting. I’m glad you supported it😅😅😅. Great one mate very good
Hi mate thank you. I can’t thank him enough for the shoutout. There’s plenty more after the one you’ve watched here. And plenty more to come so thanks again
I love both the Same and the Zetor. My dad owned an 1968 3511, great tractor, this 6911 one is just bigger, but in fact the same. And the Same tractors.... I worked with the Saturno 80, with an inline 4 cilinder. Also the Panther 90, and the Tiger 100, both 5 cilinders. Great simple tractors
Hi mate they are great tractors. The zetor is a really good powerful machine. I actually have a smaller one coming, a 3 cylinder one which is identical to this one but smaller. Good comment mate it’s great to see blokes appreciate this stuff rather than the British and American equipment all the time.
@@stevesplacedownunder I have friends here in the States that use Zetor and other makes, farming is about making a living, not making John Deere rich because they refuse to give information on their electronic systems.
Yes mate that’s correct. We have had the same problem here with no product support from them for a tractor at our work. In other way’s very helpful though
@@stevesplacedownunder If you need something from the States let me know, and I will try to assist this side of the world or find someone here that can.👍🇺🇸😎
And a stubbie to ease the pressure of having to move all that lantana!! Hate the stuff. Have fun mate. Bloody hell - after watching you move that "lovely" flower and at double speed I could do with a beer also. I'm stuffed just watching.
I don't think the engine is shot, I think the injectors and or the injection pump needs rebuilt. That tractors well worth fixing. Oh , and a starter lol.
Hi mate thanks for watching. It does breathe heavy but the injectors definitely are a problem too. I haven’t had them tested but it’s the first thing I will be doing. I bought a cheap crack tester recently so I will pull them out to have a look
Don't know about down south but South Burnett Tractor Parts in Qld do a lot of Same parts and Fiat tractor and dozer parts still and are good to deal with.
Hi Rob thanks for watching. I have heard of them mate when I’ve been looking for parts for other tractors. I should ring and get a rough quote on what the parts would be
Great stuff Rob thanks. I have a Fiat here. It’s a 513 so she’s old and we have a later model new holland which is a great tractor. There’s a mob close to us that do new holland and later fiat agri parts. The old fiat I don’t use so haven’t needed parts for her. I should do an episode on it actually.
@@stevesplacedownunder oh righto yeah I had a 50ci fiat dozer it had been "rebuilt" started getting hot pulled the head and found 2 off the linner heights a 4 thou under the spec the head studs bent and rusted out and the crank had huge scores in it the more I looked the worse it got 😂. Ended up getting a 513 engine on a stand that was used to drive a pump that had been rebuilt as a spare but never used was very lucky to find it. Was a handy dozer when going for it's size but I got to know a lot more about the mechical then I wanted too 😂
I worked as an agricultural machinery mechanic in Germany 25 years ago. Same tractors were always a pain, I didn't like them at all. unreliable, especially in winter and difficult to repair compared to the other brands we have served. Luckily there were only a few of them among our customers. There were also always problems obtaining spare parts. Still, a great performance and an entertaining video 👍🏻
This is great mate I love to hear what people think of different machines. I haven’t had anything to do with them except this one. More to come very soon on it and thanks for watching
@@stevesplacedownunder there are also people for whom these are the best tractors... personal taste and experience with the different brands are crucial. For me personally, the IHC/Case 1455XL was the optimum at that time. I also liked the Ford TWs, which didn't get much approval from my colleagues 😂
*- Yup, refurbish the Centauro, new barrels, lap the valves, find the needed cylinder rings, tilt blade.* *-...good project for you and for your growing viewers.*
Hi Ken thanks for the nice comment. Yes I’m proud of the place. It’s a nice area. There will be plenty more mate so keep an eye out for next episodes. And yes thanks, I did forget. I went away the next day and I got my dad to go down and do it
Hi David yes it does mate. I’ve learned a lot over the years playing with them, plus I’m an earthmover mechanic through the day so it all adds to it. I’d rather play with the old equipment though. There are some interesting ones in n the collection and it’s still growing to which is good
Just got onto your channel a couple of days ago Steve, I like what I see. No bullshit ....or all bullshit maybe, hahaha. Good stiff mate, just subscribed. I have a Zetor 6945 about the same year model as yours. They are a well equipped tractor with hi and low range, low low is a crawler gear and can shred your tyres before it will stall, 2 speed PTO. Mine has an under axle blade also. When I bought it second hand from a dealer he had replaced the block and rebuilt it after the motor had been ripped off the bell housing, I kid you not. He then strengthened the blade mounts so it wouldn't happen again. Anyway he had done such a good job that i was impressed so I bought it. Czhechoslovakia also make the BRNO riffle which is a very decent riffle so I reasoned that if their tractors were as good as their rifles, then it would do me fine. After 37 years I see no reason to change my opinion.. In our terminology mate, they are good shit. It was built in the early 70s I think. By the way they still make Zetor tractors today. All the best.
Hi Bruce thanks for reaching out and glade you like it. I don’t really change on the camera, if people don’t like it they don’t have to watch, so the bullshit I carry on with doesn’t change when filming 🤣🤣. I think the Zetor tractors are great. I didn’t mean to get so many really but one was given to me, one was $500 and one isn’t yet mine,(the 6911). They are a powerful machine with everything that a tractor should have and easy to use. If it was a Massey Fergusen for instance, I wouldn’t of got it for as little as $500. They are a strong reliable machine and cheap. For a bloke starting out on a small farm or property, they are a great way to afford a great usable tractor.. I can actually see it breaking like you said because they are a long wheelbase compared to other tractors of their size and no chassis. But the power they put to the ground is unreal I think mate. I really like them. I couldn’t see it go to scrap. Good to talk mate, thanks for subscribing and stay tuned for plenty more adventures
@@stevesplacedownunder The reason she snapped the motor off the bell housing was that they were back blading and spun the wheel on full lock and as she swung around backwards the corner of the under axle blade caught a stump and snapped her in two. It broke the flange off the motor on the left side and took out a section of the bell housing where the starter fits. The repairs were well done so I had no reservations about buying it. The original blade frame was bolted to the motor only, that is why it happened. Repairs saw a new frame carried to the final drive housing. Game set and match. No more breakages. Thanks for getting back mate. Your a no bullshit guy, that comes through very clearly mate. Keep up the good work. Cheers. Bruce. PS I live near Kempsey on the north coast NSW on a couple of hundred acres..
Steve, not sure if you know it or not but the Zetors have a quick start button between the on board compressor and the injector pump. It is a small button and easily missed. Pull the fuel lever (accelerator) to the on position, hit the button and they start very quickly. Saves the battery big time mate. Cheers.
I probably could have got the barrels and pistons etc for the old salami through work but we are closing up shop now. Any duetz dealer should be able to source the parts you need though
Thanks mate I would of probably been interested. I’d say it would be a fairly expensive job. I actually know a bloke here that works in a deutz dealer for stationary engines but should be the same thing. I will ask next time I’m there
@@stevesplacedownunder i just finished an engine for a Same Krypton, just got the guy going again i put new pistons, sleeves rod bearings etc no head or crank work and the final bill inc labour was around 20k (that included a clutch and other repairs too though) i believe the pistons, sleeves, ring and bearings were around 1000 bucks per cylinder, so yes not a cheap rebuild but your tractor would be worth a bit of coin in the current market. Mind you the reason it cane in because it had a coolant leak and the guy used dam water in substitute for coolant and the sleeves suffered electrolysis and pin holed one sleeve filling the cylinder with water
Thank you mate. That video was back when I first got going. I’ve since got a gimbal and some more modern equipment. Watch some later episodes to see the improvements
Good job mate 👍, grew up on a farm as a kid, just bought 40 acres with old trucks and tractors on it so do the same trying to get the life back in them. Good to see beers on at the same time👍👍. Keep the videos coming mate.
Hi Shane thanks for watching and the nice comment mate. You sound just like my life mate which is a good way to live. You need to get them going mate. Beers are always here when I play. Serious work I wait till I’m finished but play time Is beer time. Plenty more to come Shane so stay around
I have a same minitauro 60 4x4. I find there's a geat lack of parts support in general and in Australia is particular. It's hard to get information on them.
Hi mate thanks for watching and the comment. It is hard yes. It once broke a part in the lift on the back and we had big trouble finding one. Had to get one off a wrecked one and get it sent to us. I’d like to do up the engine but I don’t want to get it down and struggle with parts. A few have mentioned that Duetz dealerships can assist
@@stevesplacedownunder Yep. They're good tractors but there's nothing on them. Perhaps next time you do a service engine oil and hydraulic service on your SAME you'll do a video on it. Even video's on their service and maintainance doesn't exist they all seem to be on driving them. At least this vid you did showed you bring it back to life most vids on the SAME's are all about watching them drive.
I will eventually do more on it mate. There’s plenty I can do but the engine is worn out and until I buy it off the owner I won’t be throwing money at the engine. But it will happen and will Be a video
Sure Steve why not man. I would put them to use somehow. Get them out of nothing else just to keep them working still. You can use them for hauling firewood with to.
looks like she was coming better as she runs longer, id say she has a bit of glazing possibly from not being worked so hard, but yeah id say she would need a set of rings and possibly a hone if its worn then id say a rebore with some new pistons and have the injectors cleaned should bring her back up good.
Hi mate thanks for watching. Yes it wouldn’t take much. I definitely needs the injectors serviced and a set of rings. Once I own it I will be doing exactly this I hope
It would be good if you could find someone that could repair those rusty cabs. It would take a lot of bondo. Plus it would involve a lot of beer consumption. I like that Centauro tractor. That's a nice 4 banger I would put a couple of turbos on and give it some good power and put a larger blade on.
Thanks Neil yes I’d love to get a bloke to do some weekend work on them.. there’s going to be beer drunk regardless of what happens 😂. Yes she has a lot of potential. For a smaller tractor it has a lot of power even how It is at the moment. I like it to mate
Nice collection of tractors! I have an old Nuffield 10/60 but I’m looking to buy my neighbors old SAME Centurion 75. I love the old Same tractors! //New subscriber from Sweden
Hi mate thanks for subscribing and watching. Great stuff. Yes they are a good machine. This one needs a lot of work though. I haven’t got a Nuffield yet. How amazing from Sweden. Plenty more to come. I have a lot of videos up if you go through the channel. Thanks again 🙏🙏
@@stevesplacedownunder Sounds like I have lots of nice videos to go through on your channel! Stay safe and if you decide to fix that old Same I will definitely be watching!
So SAME tractors of that era didn’t have a duetz. They used the in-house same engine. My same leopard goes hard. 40 years old and I still use it for contracting. All day every day
There is mate. It’s a bit shaky at the start but I’ve upgraded my video equipment in as I went so it gets better as I learn to use it. Will get better mate as I grow it. I have plenty of toys here to create content with
Great video Steve! Surprised how difficult it was the fire up, when it started to smoke so quick I thought it would pick up. Interesting machine, never realised they had a V4. Subscribed!
Hi again mate. Yes it’s never been that hard to start but never sat that long either. It has needed a rebuild for a long time. Thanks for the sub mate and there’s plenty more to come
Thank you for saving this one. I grew up with a SAME Centurion 75 Export, also air cooled. Good times, great memories.
Thanks for watching mate. They are great old tractors
What a great setup you have and plenty to keep you busy. Keep the videos coming. Thanks.
Hi mate thank you. Plenty more to come. Plenty of episodes after this one also

Hi mate that’s great. Good to see you still have it. I’m sure they are great for skidding. Very stable and powerful. Thanks for the comment and watching
Thanks for the latest video mate, she deffo needs an overhaul.
Thanks for watching Stuart yes it does mate. I’d love to attack it and see what’s going on with it
On all the older same there’s a button on the end of the injector pump that you can pull out and it makes it much easier to start.
Yes mate but this one is lack of compression I’d say.
My same just starts first pop. I’ve never noticed the button you mentioned I’ll look tomorrow
Bring back the Sammy. Very nice tractor. I have only seen one other. I really like them. Thank you for showing it off.
Hi mate no problem thanks for watching. I may do another video on it. A tree fell down behind my house so I might video the Sammy pulling it away maybe
My grandson loves your tractors 😅
Thank you mate
👍Super !! This magical sound of a revived diesel.
Thanks mate
That is a very cool looking old girl ! I would love to see it restored..
One day mate when the channel grows and allows me some more time to play
You have some nice old tractors there. I don't know much about the two that you drove, but the old Massey tractors you have were sold half way around the world and parts are still available. Keep those old things running and they might out live all of us. Keep up the good work.
Hi Brian thanks for watching mate. I don’t know a lot about those ones either mate. I used to have the 6ft slasher on that zetor, as it was in this video, but since I bought the Massey 165 off the family I put it on that and haven’t regretted it. Such a beautiful tractor to use with the power steering and everything is so easy compared to the zetor. I have 2 MF 35’s also with the 3 cylinder Perkins in them, both great tractors. I also have 2 MF 30’s which are made in France(I think). Those France ones are very hard to find parts for mate. Thanks again mate and there’s plenty more to come
@@stevesplacedownunder Here in the US there are a lot of old Massey Harris and Massey Ferguson tractors around. The 135's are still popular with a bunch of people. They are popular with collectors too, so if you have trouble getting parts, see if you can make contact with some people here. I'm sure there are some people here who know of places to obtain parts or ways to fix old parts. Good luck.
keep up the good work Steve , i would also love to see the rebuld
Once I acquire it mate I will be doing just that. The people across the road own it at the moment but I will do another one on it soon because I want to test the injectors. That won’t help with blow by but will help it run evenly. Glad you like it mate thank you
"Couldn't give a Castlemaine 4X!" LOL! We used to get that here in UK, and I really helped the cause!
Hi mate. It’s not bad stuff, for a mid strength anyway. I wasn’t aware that it made it all the way over to you blokes. That’s really interesting. I’m glad you supported it😅😅😅. Great one mate very good
New sub here from Matty's Workshop. Looking forward to watchijg more
Hi mate thank you. I can’t thank him enough for the shoutout. There’s plenty more after the one you’ve watched here. And plenty more to come so thanks again
Great job Steve, keep the cold snacks flowing, do whatever Roger says and you can’t go wrong 😊
Thanks mate, he’s there to lend a hand mate indeed 😊😊
I did not know that Zetor was sold also in to Australia...nice video...and nice collection
Hi mate yes I’ve seen a few just in our area. I know of another smaller one just up the road. Thanks for nice words👋👋👋👍👍👍
What a machine! Great little collection!
Hi mate thanks for watching 🙏🙏🙏
my grandfather worked in the Same factory here in Italy. I dind't know they were sold outside Italy!! Shed a tear
Hi mate yes a lot made it over to Australia
Woooouw...! really good, I like it, thaks
Thank you mate
Gotta have the pup spray the crack while you jump the solenoid.

Fantastic mate thank you
The joy of having enough ground that you don’t need to scrap anything 😎😎🏴🏴
uwielbiam takie klimaty- starych maszyn. Pozdrawiam 👍
Thank you mate. It is good fun
A Same tractor in Australia??
Wow😳
Greetings from Italy!! 👋👋
Paul
Hi over there Paul. Yes mate there are a lot of them over here
I love both the Same and the Zetor. My dad owned an 1968 3511, great tractor, this 6911 one is just bigger, but in fact the same. And the Same tractors.... I worked with the Saturno 80, with an inline 4 cilinder. Also the Panther 90, and the Tiger 100, both 5 cilinders. Great simple tractors
Hi mate they are great tractors. The zetor is a really good powerful machine. I actually have a smaller one coming, a 3 cylinder one which is identical to this one but smaller. Good comment mate it’s great to see blokes appreciate this stuff rather than the British and American equipment all the time.
@@stevesplacedownunder
I have friends here in the States that use Zetor and other makes, farming is about making a living, not making John Deere rich because they refuse to give information on their electronic systems.
Yes mate that’s correct. We have had the same problem here with no product support from them for a tractor at our work. In other way’s very helpful though
@@stevesplacedownunder If you need something from the States let me know, and I will try to assist this side of the world or find someone here that can.👍🇺🇸😎
Hi mate thanks a lot I will keep that in mind. There’s probably a lot more stuff available over there
And a stubbie to ease the pressure of having to move all that lantana!! Hate the stuff. Have fun mate.
Bloody hell - after watching you move that "lovely" flower and at double speed I could do with a beer also. I'm stuffed just watching.
Hi mate. A stubbie needs to be had while doing silly things like this. It’s dreadful stuff and it’s everywhere here. Thanks for watching
Super že Česko Slovenske stroje sa nájdu aj na opačnej strane zemegule 😀👍
Subscribed,Liked and shared. All my best.
Fantastic mate thank you🙏🙏🙏 very happy that you like it
@@stevesplacedownunder You are very welcome I love to see, these great old machine's saved. All my very best.
I don't think the engine is shot, I think the injectors and or the injection pump needs rebuilt. That tractors well worth fixing. Oh , and a starter lol.
Hi mate thanks for watching. It does breathe heavy but the injectors definitely are a problem too. I haven’t had them tested but it’s the first thing I will be doing. I bought a cheap crack tester recently so I will pull them out to have a look
Another you beaut revival, Steve. Always love watching these old buggers come back to life. 👍
Hi Mick yes mate I love getting them going. Certainly how I like spending time
Steve's Place Down under Keep Up the good 👍 work 💕 all those trucks And videos Billy Lizza Uniontown pa USA
Hi Billy thanks again for your support mate. There will be plenty more coming
Quite amazing!!!
You always find these cool gold mines of neglected stuff. Definitely need a bottle holder for each rig.
I’ve found a few good things mate yes. I’ve got a little cooler bag with a few of those elastic straps that can adapt to most vehicles
Another Great Video Buddy Cheers,
Thank you mate. I’m trying to provide some good entertainment 😃
@@stevesplacedownunder Your already doing that mate keep up the good work Buddy
Don't know about down south but South Burnett Tractor Parts in Qld do a lot of Same parts and Fiat tractor and dozer parts still and are good to deal with.
Hi Rob thanks for watching. I have heard of them mate when I’ve been looking for parts for other tractors. I should ring and get a rough quote on what the parts would be
@@stevesplacedownunder yeah be worth a call I use the for my Fiat,New Holland,Same and landai parts. Love your videos too mate your doing well👌
Great stuff Rob thanks. I have a Fiat here. It’s a 513 so she’s old and we have a later model new holland which is a great tractor. There’s a mob close to us that do new holland and later fiat agri parts. The old fiat I don’t use so haven’t needed parts for her. I should do an episode on it actually.
@@stevesplacedownunder oh righto yeah I had a 50ci fiat dozer it had been "rebuilt" started getting hot pulled the head and found 2 off the linner heights a 4 thou under the spec the head studs bent and rusted out and the crank had huge scores in it the more I looked the worse it got 😂. Ended up getting a 513 engine on a stand that was used to drive a pump that had been rebuilt as a spare but never used was very lucky to find it. Was a handy dozer when going for it's size but I got to know a lot more about the mechical then I wanted too 😂
Gotta love the metaphor for the ether and moonshine 😂
It’s a must mate🤣
I worked as an agricultural machinery mechanic in Germany 25 years ago. Same tractors were always a pain, I didn't like them at all. unreliable, especially in winter and difficult to repair compared to the other brands we have served. Luckily there were only a few of them among our customers. There were also always problems obtaining spare parts.
Still, a great performance and an entertaining video 👍🏻
This is great mate I love to hear what people think of different machines. I haven’t had anything to do with them except this one. More to come very soon on it and thanks for watching
@@stevesplacedownunder there are also people for whom these are the best tractors... personal taste and experience with the different brands are crucial. For me personally, the IHC/Case 1455XL was the optimum at that time. I also liked the Ford TWs, which didn't get much approval from my colleagues 😂
❤
I love the twin exhaust stacks 👌
Hi Greg yes mate they look great. They are also real being a bee engine which is good 👍👍🤘🤘
Yes I subscribed to your channel already to Steve. I liked it.& Commented on them to for ya. Good job. Keep it up.& Keep those videos coming to man?
Thanks for subscribing John. Yeah mate stay around there’s plenty more coming
I have a same Delfino I need a steering box can’t find one love the tractor it’s 4 wheel drive
You've got some really good gems sitting there I'd love to get my hands on 🤘
Hi mate thank you
*- Yup, refurbish the Centauro, new barrels, lap the valves, find the needed cylinder rings, tilt blade.*
*-...good project for you and for your growing viewers.*
Hi Robert that’s right mate. That’s everything I’d like to do to it. I’d like to pull it down and inspect it all to see what’s going on with it
Great Video !!
Thanks mate🙏🙏🙏
I really like when you pan around so we can see the landscape, beautiful ! what id like to see, is more. and turn your fuel taps off.
Hi Ken thanks for the nice comment. Yes I’m proud of the place. It’s a nice area. There will be plenty more mate so keep an eye out for next episodes. And yes thanks, I did forget. I went away the next day and I got my dad to go down and do it
H@@stevesplacedownunder x7
Must be damn loud in person, I almost had to get hearing protection watching it on my PC :D :D
It is noisy mate but not to bad. It would be noisy if you worked it all day I’m sure
Interesting collection of tractors. It must give you an education when you work on them.
Hi David yes it does mate. I’ve learned a lot over the years playing with them, plus I’m an earthmover mechanic through the day so it all adds to it. I’d rather play with the old equipment though. There are some interesting ones in n the collection and it’s still growing to which is good
Great video Steve👍
Great thanks Neil 👍👍👍
Hi Steve another banging video bruv
Hi Mark thank you mate
Just got onto your channel a couple of days ago Steve, I like what I see. No bullshit ....or all bullshit maybe, hahaha. Good stiff mate, just subscribed. I have a Zetor 6945 about the same year model as yours. They are a well equipped tractor with hi and low range, low low is a crawler gear and can shred your tyres before it will stall, 2 speed PTO. Mine has an under axle blade also. When I bought it second hand from a dealer he had replaced the block and rebuilt it after the motor had been ripped off the bell housing, I kid you not. He then strengthened the blade mounts so it wouldn't happen again.
Anyway he had done such a good job that i was impressed so I bought it. Czhechoslovakia also make the BRNO riffle which is a very decent riffle so I reasoned that if their tractors were as good as their rifles, then it would do me fine. After 37 years I see no reason to change my opinion.. In our terminology mate, they are good shit. It was built in the early 70s I think.
By the way they still make Zetor tractors today.
All the best.
Hi Bruce thanks for reaching out and glade you like it. I don’t really change on the camera, if people don’t like it they don’t have to watch, so the bullshit I carry on with doesn’t change when filming 🤣🤣.
I think the Zetor tractors are great. I didn’t mean to get so many really but one was given to me, one was $500 and one isn’t yet mine,(the 6911). They are a powerful machine with everything that a tractor should have and easy to use. If it was a Massey Fergusen for instance, I wouldn’t of got it for as little as $500. They are a strong reliable machine and cheap. For a bloke starting out on a small farm or property, they are a great way to afford a great usable tractor.. I can actually see it breaking like you said because they are a long wheelbase compared to other tractors of their size and no chassis. But the power they put to the ground is unreal I think mate. I really like them. I couldn’t see it go to scrap. Good to talk mate, thanks for subscribing and stay tuned for plenty more adventures
@@stevesplacedownunder
The reason she snapped the motor off the bell housing was that they were back blading and spun the wheel on full lock and as she swung around backwards the corner of the under axle blade caught a stump and snapped her in two. It broke the flange off the motor on the left side and took out a section of the bell housing where the starter fits. The repairs were well done so I had no reservations about buying it. The original blade frame was bolted to the motor only, that is why it happened. Repairs saw a new frame carried to the final drive housing. Game set and match. No more breakages. Thanks for getting back mate. Your a no bullshit guy, that comes through very clearly mate. Keep up the good work. Cheers. Bruce. PS I live near Kempsey on the north coast NSW on a couple of hundred acres..
Steve, not sure if you know it or not but the Zetors have a quick start button between the on board compressor and the injector pump. It is a small button and easily missed. Pull the fuel lever (accelerator) to the on position, hit the button and they start very quickly. Saves the battery big time mate. Cheers.
I probably could have got the barrels and pistons etc for the old salami through work but we are closing up shop now. Any duetz dealer should be able to source the parts you need though
Thanks mate I would of probably been interested. I’d say it would be a fairly expensive job. I actually know a bloke here that works in a deutz dealer for stationary engines but should be the same thing. I will ask next time I’m there
@@stevesplacedownunder i just finished an engine for a Same Krypton, just got the guy going again i put new pistons, sleeves rod bearings etc no head or crank work and the final bill inc labour was around 20k (that included a clutch and other repairs too though) i believe the pistons, sleeves, ring and bearings were around 1000 bucks per cylinder, so yes not a cheap rebuild but your tractor would be worth a bit of coin in the current market. Mind you the reason it cane in because it had a coolant leak and the guy used dam water in substitute for coolant and the sleeves suffered electrolysis and pin holed one sleeve filling the cylinder with water
これはすごい！長年放置されていたとは思えない力強いエンジン音！
It is mate yes
G'day Steve found your video's the other day when you started the blitz so far so good
Hi mate thanks for watching. It will only get better so stay around for plenty more to come
Zetors always had cool little gadgets on them like engine driven air compressors etc. Ive known them to be real good tractors.
Yes mate they are good tractors. This one has been great over the years
Zetor je skvělý traktor! Mám Zetor 7245 už 38 let. Funguje každý den bez vážného selhání.
Great video👍👍🇺🇸👍👍👍
Thanks again Joe. I’m hoping to get more out on a regular basis so stay tuned
Seems like it cleared up a bit once warm. Or its just out of oil .
Working it’s fine. Idling it’s awful
Great video. Your channel would benefit from a camera that has image stabilization.
Thank you mate. That video was back when I first got going. I’ve since got a gimbal and some more modern equipment. Watch some later episodes to see the improvements
Good job mate 👍, grew up on a farm as a kid, just bought 40 acres with old trucks and tractors on it so do the same trying to get the life back in them. Good to see beers on at the same time👍👍. Keep the videos coming mate.
Hi Shane thanks for watching and the nice comment mate. You sound just like my life mate which is a good way to live. You need to get them going mate. Beers are always here when I play. Serious work I wait till I’m finished but play time Is beer time. Plenty more to come Shane so stay around
I have a same minitauro 60 4x4. I find there's a geat lack of parts support in general and in Australia is particular. It's hard to get information on them.
Hi mate thanks for watching and the comment. It is hard yes. It once broke a part in the lift on the back and we had big trouble finding one. Had to get one off a wrecked one and get it sent to us. I’d like to do up the engine but I don’t want to get it down and struggle with parts. A few have mentioned that Duetz dealerships can assist
@@stevesplacedownunder Yep. They're good tractors but there's nothing on them. Perhaps next time you do a service engine oil and hydraulic service on your SAME you'll do a video on it. Even video's on their service and maintainance doesn't exist they all seem to be on driving them. At least this vid you did showed you bring it back to life most vids on the SAME's are all about watching them drive.
I will eventually do more on it mate. There’s plenty I can do but the engine is worn out and until I buy it off the owner I won’t be throwing money at the engine. But it will happen and will
Be a video
Sure Steve why not man. I would put them to use somehow. Get them out of nothing else just to keep them working still. You can use them for hauling firewood with to.
Yeah John I’d like to use most of them mate
Great video
Thank you Doug
Cool pup.
🙏🙏🤘🤘🤘
28:00 aww cute lil tough pup
Thank you😊😊😊😊
Zetor 🇨🇿made in Czechoslovakia 👍
Sure is mate. Good tractors
looks like she was coming better as she runs longer, id say she has a bit of glazing possibly from not being worked so hard, but yeah id say she would need a set of rings and possibly a hone if its worn then id say a rebore with some new pistons and have the injectors cleaned should bring her back up good.
Hi mate thanks for watching. Yes it wouldn’t take much. I definitely needs the injectors serviced and a set of rings. Once I own it I will be doing exactly this I hope
It would be good if you could find someone that could repair those rusty cabs. It would take a lot of bondo. Plus it would involve a lot of beer consumption.
I like that Centauro tractor. That's a nice 4 banger I would put a couple of turbos on and give it some good power and put a larger blade on.
Thanks Neil yes I’d love to get a bloke to do some weekend work on them.. there’s going to be beer drunk regardless of what happens 😂. Yes she has a lot of potential. For a smaller tractor it has a lot of power even how It is at the moment. I like it to mate
would love have old beast like like that in the usa
Nice collection of tractors! I have an old Nuffield 10/60 but I’m looking to buy my neighbors old SAME Centurion 75. I love the old Same tractors! //New subscriber from Sweden
Hi mate thanks for subscribing and watching. Great stuff. Yes they are a good machine. This one needs a lot of work though. I haven’t got a Nuffield yet. How amazing from Sweden. Plenty more to come. I have a lot of videos up if you go through the channel. Thanks again 🙏🙏
@@stevesplacedownunder Sounds like I have lots of nice videos to go through on your channel! Stay safe and if you decide to fix that old Same I will definitely be watching!
Great John yes mate hopefully you enjoy and stay tuned for further adventures
Great vid Steve ! Just Subscribed. The Duetz is an awesome bullet proof power plant !
Thanks for watching and the sub mate very much appreciated. Hopefully we will do more with this one soon enough
So SAME tractors of that era didn’t have a duetz. They used the in-house same engine. My same leopard goes hard. 40 years old and I still use it for contracting. All day every day
Great stuff mate. I think this one is a Same engine. Looks Deutz but got a few SAME parts on it
Just found your channel, love it! Subscribed!
Hi mate thanks. Glad to have you around. Go back through the channel, there are some interesting videos
@@stevesplacedownunder I will do. From what I've seen just by skimming through, there looks to be some good content!
There is mate. It’s a bit shaky at the start but I’ve upgraded my video equipment in as I went so it gets better as I learn to use it. Will get better mate as I grow it. I have plenty of toys here to create content with
@Steve’s Place Down Under I look forward to it! I love seeing vids of Aussie, my family are up in Queensland, I'm stuck in NZ.
Surprised you didn't park it up the other direction so that the battery and starter are easier to get to next time.
Easy now the bush has gone
Watching here mindoro occidental province Philippines....
Hi mate thanks
Great video Steve! Surprised how difficult it was the fire up, when it started to smoke so quick I thought it would pick up. Interesting machine, never realised they had a V4. Subscribed!
Hi again mate. Yes it’s never been that hard to start but never sat that long either. It has needed a rebuild for a long time. Thanks for the sub mate and there’s plenty more to come
And air cooled thought Deutz , Volkswagen were all that where Air cold!
Hi I noticed that zetor has front axle suspension does it work 🤔
Hi Nick yes to a degree it does. Would probably have been better when it was newer obviously but yes when the front is lifting you can still steer it
