Good job you got that Old 40 Ford running. What country are you in, I'm in the United States.

Good video..

Muita conversa fiada, e pouco conteudo demonstrativo

Man the flathead v8 sounds so good

G'day Pete, my 41 military issue cab has a I.D number stamped on the paaswnger side firewall.

Hi mate. Very enjoyable video and a great result. I love those old v8 engines

I have an 8BA. It started as a 6 volt positive ground. I currently run it 12V negative ground. The starter doesn't seem to care about polarity. Somehow it just spins the way you need. Also the voltage doesn't seem to bother them. People run them at 12V all the time.

G'day Pete . Brilliant idea on the drain plug . Simple and effective . That 85 yo engine sounds pretty right . Always good to see what you are up to mate . Scott 🌵

Hi Pete I've got GQ Nissan Patrol Ute chassis and cab complete up west of Ravenshoe if you are interested? Let me know if you are interested in it?

I know what you mean, if you start on the Patrol you won’t work on the backhoe. I have a yard full of projects where I started on the new one and the progress on the old one stops.

Another good video pete. Love a old ford v8. Lots of projects have to spread your self around haha.

Awesome find! Looking forward the progress on this truck.

I reckon Old Mate has a spot of dementia 😂

Great video! I enjoy it

Hey Pete mate another good vid. Good to tag along and watch the variety of work you get to participate in. Keep up the good work from Vancouver Island.

As a welder the ceramic strips were something I was unaware of. I have used thick copper strips to do the same thing though.

Hi mate just watched now. Too many segments to comment on. It’s a brilliant atmosphere there at the workshop, beautiful property. I love those jobs setting up engines and pumps. We’ve done a lot of it over the years, but now they buy professionally made ones with warranty. Backhoe is getting closer too. Great episode, thoroughly enjoyed it

Mornin Pete . Our day started about 25c on its way about 45c today . But as we say , "it's a dry heat " 😳 When I was a kid , I could tell the brand of diesel engines of the time by the sound . Thanks to you and Steve I can now distinguish the sound of a Perkins 6-354 . I'm sure we had them here also , big not near as common as the Mack , Cummins and Detroits we had here. Hard to tell the new modern diesels , since they all have high pressure fuel systems and turbos now . Here is a question that I have thought about for the last week or so . Since you done the tyres on your loader. Why is it that the inside of the wheels do not rust far more than they do ? That old pump ran good and did its job perfectly mate . Was good to let work a little after a long rest . I agree with oldamericaniron on snakes. I just steer as clear as farI can from them. I agree , there was good variety in this video , keeps it interesting . Take care Pete , I will look forward to the next video . Scott 🌵

Hi Pete, we’ve had way too much rain also and tired of cloudy days. Enough rain so crops in low areas drown out. I only know enough about snakes as to stay away from them although none in my area are venomous. Great video as with the collection of clips it gives a very good idea of your daily life. Sounds like your beautiful winter day would be a beautiful summer day here. As always, live life and enjoy it!

A good curry you know the score Pete!

Informative video as always mate . I learn many things from you Pete . Just want you to know and say thanks ! Scott 🌵

You are loosing current with the extension leads, You need a lead with at least 1.5mm wire, preferably 2 or 2.5mm , to carry the current.

Hi again Pete, talked to you last evening and woke up this morning to the video. To an old guy like me the technology is still amazing. I remember when a “long distance “phone call an hour long to a place 40 miles away would have cost as much as driving there. Now we can communicate with someone on the other side of the world as much as we want for a small flat fee each month. I chuckled about the curry comment as I did have a curried chicken meat pie on the road trip with Steve and Nick to Dave’s place. I probably would have resorted to the cutting torch to cut down the cutting edge. Main thing is job done well. I think when it comes time to sell the purchaser can be confident he is getting a good machine.

it actually takes a high moral doing what you do without giving up you know ...... so thumbs up from Denmark

i lust love your channel

The new tyres make the machine Pete, one of the constant battles with old machinery (tyres)

Hey Pete ,A great video as always,should be able to keep the beer cold in the Suzi now ,good on you

Pete, seeing you at work made me think of a video I had. The farmer I work for also does farm drainage. The video is of pulling the 85,000 pound tile plow through a soft spot. It was mid winter at 3:00 in the afternoon and gets fully dark by 5:00. The temperature plummeted to 15 degrees Fahrenheit below zero that night. Would not have been a good time to get stuck. After we got through we spent 2 hours cleaning mud from tracks in the freezing dark. What fun. I sent the video to on WhatsApp.

Always a pleasure to follow along Pete . The old Perkins and Kubota were just waiting to go . Not good on the Hydraulic pump mate ! Looks like a goner ! 🌵

I agree 100 percent about the air filters.

cool

❤❤❤❤❤

Hi Pete, can you take the pinion out of the Isuzu without taking the diff centre out?

I think changing those tires puts you on the category of a glutton for punishment. When I was in Australia and heard the name Woolworth’s made me think of the F W Woolworth department stores we had hear 50 years ago.

Grififiths traders sell case backhoe parts

Great video mate ! That big tyre work is very tiring by yourself 😳. I've learned a lot from you Pete , I appreciate what I learn . Cheers 🌵

Hi Pete, I love the videos, I do similar things in my spare time, you are an inspiration, every time I watch your videos It makes me want to work on my own equipment, thanks Pete,

Well done mate always enjoy these episodes. Got a tyre change one coming out also. Laying in bed with my wife watching this and you said the Woolworths joke, I near had a coughing fit😂😂😂

Hay Pete great job love your videos keep up the great work

Looks good with newbies, makes the machine

Always a bit difficult with things when you got a few projects on the go Pete

Muchas gracias por tus vídeos y por tu tiempo dedicado.

Enjoyed your video very much

What Hammer?, I didnt see a hammer!

Thanks for the video.

Pete, I hate to say but I think you overpaid for the lawnmower. We can pick them up for free off the curb here. Once I brought one home from the town recycling center where you can pickup what other people throw away. It was full of gas and started first pull but didn’t cut well. I checked underneath and they put a new blade on it backwards. Flipped the blade over and it worked great. Now if I can’t ride on the mower I don’t use it.

Hi. Pete. Perhaps some cleaning liquid in the ultrasonic cleaner will see better results. Perhaps watching some other peoples videos might help you.

Your extractor tool is probably right next to my gear puller😅

From a lawn mower to motorcycle to a tractor in one episode , who could ask for more ! Thanks for the video Pete , always a pleasure from my end mate ! I would like to see compressor swap . 🌵

An old GV150 honda engine . Needs the rewind mechanism oiled . Try to keep the old original Keihin carby if possible Pete . What detergent are you using in your ultrasonic tank ? 🌵
