I explained to my wife what you are doing... she said "so?" I was like SO? ... So?! people invest hundreds of thousands to start farming and this guy has done it practically FREE!!!
Free...plus a buttload of practical experience, shadetree engineering and, it must be said, this IS his day job. Most of us can't scrape together this kind of free time.
Nice that you keep resurrecting the old forgotten pieces and giving them a second life. I think that you should paint the belly tank like an old fighter plane with the teeth, would be pretty awesome... can't wait to see you make it rain
This is amazing! You guys are seriously making me relive my childhood! I will say with the size of the field you have and the Farmall H, try to find cultivating shoes and fertilizer hoppers. You’ll cut down on weeds and the nitrogen mix (19, 19,19) will produce a better yield. Lastly look for a corn binder rather than a combine for harvest. You will save yourself a lot of time and work rather than dealing with a combine. The Amish community usually have them and you will be able to pull it with the H. If you need help with anything or have any questions please reach out. Our farm still uses a lot of this equipment and I grew up with it. Thank you again for the series!
What do you do with the bundles of corn coming out of a corn binder? If I was wanting to store that as dry ear corn or shell corn for future grinding as cattle feed, is there any option for doing so other than with a lot of hand labor?
@@jonathankipps9061 Back in the day, you would run it thru a husker, shredder, separating the ear and shredding the stalks. Shredded stalks were often blown into the "hay mow" of the barn for storage.
Yeah base on the size of yield and limited storage, binding would be my suggestion. Not to mention trying to get a modern combine to function is very difficult and one that needs work would be a good winter project. But with a binder the storage is easier and you may be able to sell as is to someone as opposed to wasting a yield trying to find and operate a combine. Just thinking ahead!
Speaking of the shingle restoring your spark, I love how on these old carburetor and distributor engines you can literally get them running with things you find laying around on the ground around them.
Except it has gotten to the point of embarrassment... Kevin should be fully prepared by now for just about any condition or event that crops up for the average "will it run?". While he may be simply showing a way to get something done by making due w/what he can scrounge up, it got old many miles ago. He has a truck and he brings along some useful items but not all that he easily could... and should. No points file in the tool kit? Cringeworthy. No spare fuel line? Cringeworthy. No funnels? CRINGEWORTHY! Good grief, he can't even keep batteries charged up. I could go on but I think I've made my point. He's either playing the fool on purpose or he's actually a fool. With whichever it is... it was stale long ago. Get it together Kevin, get it together! Go in prepared lad!! - Max Giganteum
@@MaxGiganteum You must be very fun at parties. No sense of humor? CRINGEWORTHY! If you think this is old or stale, go somewhere else. The internet is your oyster.
Gotta admit, I cheered a few times watching you till and plant the corn. To see old stuff being revived....would sure help the current generation know what true work is.
This series has been really fun. It's still got some of the classic revival content, but with stuff that's a lot more unique than cars. It's cool to see all this old equipment get dug out and put back to use. And it's also making me want to move out to the country. Just wrench on stuff all day and listen to the wind and the birds.
Enjoy. My Dad Began Spraying with that sprayer. Glad you are bringing it to back to life. It was the top of the line he said. I sprayed with it as a kid. Very cool 😎 Larry D Wicks RIP
I love how this channel has evolved, I wonder how long it's going to be until you guys decide to raise cows and ol' Corncob Kevbo finds an abandoned milking machine to do a "Will it run?" on, lol. Keep it up!
The equivalent would be buying the cheapest, skinniest, and wildest cows that come through the auction; and trying to get them fattened up, tamed down, pregnant, calved out, and milking. Expect a pretty poor success rate, though. Milking machines are pretty simple -- the vacuum pump and the pulsator are the only mechanical parts to them. Most abandoned vane-type pumps just need a little lubrication and they're running fine, and a simple Surge pulsator will only need cleaning and lubrication as well. New milk hoses and milker inflations, and you can milk a cow.
I’m going to suggest removing all the tin from the engine so that you can clean out the mouse nests within. Mice love Wisconsin motors. Trust me on this.
Loving the series Kevin! Don’t stand next the the winch line though, I’ve seen some nasty injuries from those snapping under load. Keep up the awesome work!
I really am enjoying watching this farming series with all of its challenges. This is such a great creative, entertaining,informative, and fun channel to watch!
Yep all guys i knoe including myself do it we got Every type of oil and penatrant and Additives and much more but 1 all in one body and hair wash I started getting Dr Squatch and man been loving the heck out of it no more dry skin after a shower nice sponsor Kevin @Junkyard Digs
I like to use a mapp gas torch to clean spark plugs. You hold them with a pair of vice grips and heat the electrode and insulator until they're bright red. Let them cool down put them back in and they're good as new. Also on a stuck engine I like to take the plugs out and spray a liberal amount of PB Blaster in the cylinder before I start to work it back and forth. Makes things go much quicker!
I am just admiring how you are finding things around you and using them for what you need, and it works. Keep up the good work and I am praying that you will get this working .
One thing I like about watching this channel is seeing how well you brothers play together. As for your parents, there lovely people and did a wonderful job raising you two. As for mook, kevin you're a lucky man for finding her. Angus and your friends what a top bunch of mates.
hell yes, I was just thinking I hope they do more with this series. My old man and I got a kick out of watching the old h stall out when the cultivator dug in.
This one was a pretty incredible revival. Sat 21 years in a shed that got knocked down by a tornado. Engine seized, points dead, fuel pump dead, starter stuck on. Choke seized, one tire blown out, hydraulic lines blown, stuck behind a foundation wall and yet you made it run and drove it out of there. Unique engine to boot. Loving this series man.
I've got to say I'm loving your farming with abandoned equipment series. For a few reasons: 1) I know nothing about farming and am learning. 2) Its different and interesting. 3) I love the fact that you are taking something that some would considered garbage and giving it a new life and a new purpose. I love doing the same thing. Also my wife(an architect) and I love your house (the little we've seen of it). We are a big fan of old farm houses, and yours has so much character. Keep up the good work Kevin!
Those old Hagies are death machines. They never quit running - people just get too afraid to sit on 'em. So, when Mook becomes a widow can I be her best man at her next wedding?
Can’t get enough of this series! I love how you make do with what you have to get that old iron running! Definitely shows how bulletproof things were made in the good ol days.
Hi there Kevin and Mook. I totally enjoy your channels. I'm 67 yo. Yet, I have learned so much valuable information from you guys. Especially the carburetor tuning tutorial. I will apply this knowledge to my late cousins 64 Chevy Impala custom. Thank you for being here, making these informative and funny videos. And, thank you for your military service to our nation. Peace! 👍
I'm truly impressed, this series has really shown off how good you are. Working with literally no tools and scrounging to make things work. Reminds me of times spent on my grandparents farm and my dad and uncles doing the same things
Kevin you and Mook are doing a great job and this let people know how hard it was back in the 60’s and early 70’s to farm grain crops. Keep up the great work.
Thanks for taking an aside route from your usual revival content to bring us this. Those episodes are very enjoyable, no question mate. This aside is a welcome addition to your channel. Thank you. I follow a number of automotive american revival channels (on a budget, not interested in the million dollar looky me and you cannot have this channels) it feels a bit like VCC s lodge channel. Not a copy or the same but similar feel. Love you, mook, family and friends going about. Will keep on following. The personal connection story: For 5 years this Dutch european city boy worked on a mixed farm earning a living while studying at university in Switserland. Livestock (cows, geese, hares, goats, sheep) and production of feed and produce on a 4th generation owned family farm in Schaffhausen canton. seeing you muck about takes me back to 1999-2004. Just for a bit. Thanks kindly. With regards from the Netherlands.
Thanks & good job guys sketchy? Yes, mission accomplished? Yes. Welcome to farming on the cheap most are. We are interested to watch you learning. I've been a ranch mechanic for 58 years. Central California watching
I did my very first ever revival yesterday on an audi and all I thought about while doing it is your videos, thank you for teaching me more about cars than my trade school teachers
Kevin and Jess, I have to tell you that I am very pleased to see you 'making do' with what you can find". So few of your generation can do that, it's nice to know the art is not lost.
No matter what it is....if you’re trying to fix it, I’m watching!!! Honestly, I wasn’t too sure about this one. But you restored my faith! Looking forward to the next video on this sprayer. Thanks! J.W.
Shingle, old towels, random tools, I love it! Look for grip tape on old running boards or equipment steps too! The machines you're finding wouldn't have it, but maybe something close by? I also recommend snagging any old specialty tools if they are willing to part with them, like a chain breaker lol. You may very well need one if you keep this series going. Most equipment had an on board tool box to keep that one wrench, pliers, screw driver, hammer and even adjustment levers/crank handles that didn't stay on all the time (or it could have just been our crappy equipment lol). Things were literally 'fix on the fly'. I think the old timers would be damned proud of your ingenuity and resourcefulness. Keep up the good work!
I've been with you on every video about farming. I have actually learned how corn is planted. The will it start and run on the equipment is so cool. Keep up the good work guys.
Seeing you use that shingle to clean parts brought back memories of my childhood. Never had the right tools, parts, or knowledge. But it never deterred me.
I have to tell you guys, this Farming deal is my favorite series to watch on the internet right now. I watch a lot of will-it-runs and a ton of farming, you guys are doing it all in one shot and I'm here for it
Hey Kevin! Let me say thank you for giving us these amazing videos and such creative content to enjoy, I’ve been watching your videos almost every evening now and it’s been a blast! You’re doing awesome and keep up the videos, because I need them! Love from a Dutch viewer with farming roots! ❤️
Great stuff. I'm really enjoying the Junkyard Farms series here and hope it continues. It's amazing what you can do with some free old equipment, some time and some knowledge of how things work.
I’m absolutely loving this farm series so far. Ever since I was a kid I dreamed of having a small field and farming using old equipment so seeing you do it is fascinating.
awesome as always. cars , equipment... your ingenuity and mechanical know how always impresses me. great knowing fine minds like yours were keeping our military equipment in the air.
I learned 90% of what i know about mechanical stuff in this channel and i cant wait to learn more about farming, this channel made me discover my passion for mechanics and soon after i started to like farming, so seeing that you also got into farming is pretty cool because now i can learn more about it in the same way i learned about mechanics in the beginning
The old V4, I was using one a few years back, it was so badly worn that it backfired and set fire to the sump oil! Loving the content, as I (re)tired farmer, you are doing to opposite of me, I’ve gone from fixing old machines to playing with old cars. Keep it up.
This is a fascinating, almost archeological experience. Absolutely fascinating, since I am in corn country in Illinois - this stuff is all over the place, gently rotting away with no consideration for the past and what these things have meant to us all or to the people who worked with them to feed us. Cool! Make 'er run!
I used to have one of those hagie model 437. It ran well. The one I had, had the boom in the front. Super easy to use, once you got the engine running put about 100 gal water in the tank Then you can engage the pump/agitator this is where you would check all the nozzlesn flow rate at the psi wich is regulated by a regulator and engine rpm. Once that is ok add your favorite flavor of chemicals. Motivation is the fun part. Behind the seat is the gearbox ,pick a gear forward or reverse Pull the lever that adjusts the pully on the fat belt/cvt. The more you pull the lever back, the faster you go, there is a cruise control on the lever to set your speed. Rest is simple.
@ 4:00, that "gearbox" looks a LOT like an Allis Chalmers B or C differential. They both had 3 speeds forward and final drive housings bolted to the output sides. An AM casting number on it somewhere may give it away, as Allis used AM numbers for Allis Manufacturing.
Once again, job damn well done, son!!!! I love your persistence! With men like you who have served and those to come that will serve in our armed forces, no country in the world can defeat smarts and attitude like this!!!!!!!!!
good work man! im really enjoying your farm equipment series! when you mentioned the seized engines, i remember i was one of the people that asked you a bout how to unseize them last year. you seem to know all the good tricks left behind by the last generation and i love it. its stuff people like me just wouldnt think of, and im not even that young! but you being a library of forgotten techniques is very good to see.
How can you not see that with all that shaft sticking out, you could use that pipe/hammer to pry the thing backwards instead of beating the fins off of it...? Wheres Mook when you need her... For those who can't stand the pain of it either, jump to 12:12 btw, great video

The equivalent would be buying the cheapest, skinniest, and wildest cows that come through the auction; and trying to get them fattened up, tamed down, pregnant, calved out, and milking. Expect a pretty poor success rate, though.
Milking machines are pretty simple -- the vacuum pump and the pulsator are the only mechanical parts to them. Most abandoned vane-type pumps just need a little lubrication and they're running fine, and a simple Surge pulsator will only need cleaning and lubrication as well. New milk hoses and milker inflations, and you can milk a cow.
have to get a witch doctor outfit for the cow revival
Lol corncob kevbo love it
An infinitely long time 😂
Although we did already find a milking machine in the planter vid
Who needs a milker if you already have 12 clickity-clacks? They'll work.

I learned 90% of what i know about mechanical stuff in this channel and i cant wait to learn more about farming, this channel made me discover my passion for mechanics and soon after i started to like farming, so seeing that you also got into farming is pretty cool because now i can learn more about it in the same way i learned about mechanics in the beginning
Excellent work!! Such a great series to watch (also loved the shot of the new sprouts on IG, very cool!)
The old V4, I was using one a few years back, it was so badly worn that it backfired and set fire to the sump oil! Loving the content, as I (re)tired farmer, you are doing to opposite of me, I’ve gone from fixing old machines to playing with old cars. Keep it up.
Awesome! Some of the equipment reminds me of equipment my dad farmed with when I was a kid. Loving this video series!
That’s a pretty cool looking contraption once you got it out of where it was and I could see it better.
This is a fascinating, almost archeological experience. Absolutely fascinating, since I am in corn country in Illinois - this stuff is all over the place, gently rotting away with no consideration for the past and what these things have meant to us all or to the people who worked with them to feed us. Cool! Make 'er run!
I used to have one of those hagie model 437. It ran well. The one I had, had the boom in the front.
Super easy to use, once you got the engine running put about 100 gal water in the tank
Then you can engage the pump/agitator this is where you would check all the nozzlesn flow rate at the psi wich is regulated by a regulator and engine rpm. Once that is ok add your favorite flavor of chemicals. Motivation is the fun part. Behind the seat is the gearbox ,pick a gear forward or reverse
Pull the lever that adjusts the pully on the fat belt/cvt. The more you pull the lever back, the faster you go, there is a cruise control on the lever to set your speed. Rest is simple.
@ 4:00, that "gearbox" looks a LOT like an Allis Chalmers B or C differential. They both had 3 speeds forward and final drive housings bolted to the output sides. An AM casting number on it somewhere may give it away, as Allis used AM numbers for Allis Manufacturing.
Once again, job damn well done, son!!!! I love your persistence! With men like you who have served and those to come that will serve in our armed forces, no country in the world can defeat smarts and attitude like this!!!!!!!!!
good work man! im really enjoying your farm equipment series! when you mentioned the seized engines, i remember i was one of the people that asked you a bout how to unseize them last year. you seem to know all the good tricks left behind by the last generation and i love it. its stuff people like me just wouldnt think of, and im not even that young! but you being a library of forgotten techniques is very good to see.
You and your brother have an historic memory that will last forever. Love your content always!
Hi sweeties! MamaCard is so excited for you & proud of your accomplishments!
Love all your content you guys please keep it up!! Much love from PA
This is awesome. I like farm stuff and fixing old stuff, this is the best of both worlds.
I am convinced there is nothing you can't get running! I'm so impressed! Can't wait to see if it actually sprays your crop. This is a great series!
Really like these Farming Vids! 👍 You can only watch so many "60s-70s-80s car revivals" They all start to be the same. 🤷♂️
I can't even say how much I am enjoying these.... just plain awesome
You two are wonders and entertaining as all get out. Thanks for the chuckles.
love this series!
Greetings from a small "beginners farmer" in Sweden
How can you not see that with all that shaft sticking out, you could use that pipe/hammer to pry the thing backwards instead of beating the fins off of it...? Wheres Mook when you need her... For those who can't stand the pain of it either, jump to 12:12
btw, great video
I think it's really cool you work with your brother on these projects. I love working with my little brother.
Love JYD. One of my favorite channels. You are a natural teacher.
i came for car videos and fell in love with rusty old farm equipment. Love what you're Doing dude KEEP IT UP!
