I think you missed two very important men out there Phill, The first one is uncle Ian himself, I don’t think the 1200 would have been on the farm at all if it wasn’t for him, god rest his soul, the second very very important man was father Phill, without his knowledge the old girl may have looked nice but I doubt she would be running. Great video, I had a tear in my eye thinking how happy uncle Ian would have been seeing her roll out the workshop ❤❤❤
What a fantastic effort by all involved, it really shows just how much this project meant to the entire family. Delighted for you all, an absolute gem of a restoration.
a fantastic restoration , huge congratulations to all involved , i spoke to your father at the pumpkin picking last october and he asked me to restore the red 1200 for ye , the bar is set very high now and lee has definetly given me a run for my money , whatever tractor you decide to restore next it will definetly be done to a very high standadrd .
It looks stunning in yellow, I hope all the "haters" of the yellow colour choice have swallowed their own words by now. It came along nicely, and in the drone shots the colour really looked stunning :) Hats of to Lee, he's done a great job :) Hope to see the 590 restored next or the 2725 :)
Great job, it looks fantastic. Well done all involved especially Lee. Next up for a quick part restoration the Zetor Crystal or for a full restoration the 2725.
Well done lads, looks the job, only thing it needs now is to find someone tidy with a small paint brush to put a small mark somewhere maybe bottom of the door “for Uncle Ian”
Phil Ur uncle be proud of ye that ye have his favourite tractor on the farm and looking awesome and it's nice that any time we watch Ur videos and see that tractor it will remind us of Ur uncle and thank for bringing us on the journey from start to finish. Keep up the great work and hope the family is doing well
Hon the TEAM . Credit to all who got involved and made it happen . A great tribute to uncle Ian . I stand corrected now on the yellow colour . It’s tuned out lovely ole job , 👍🏻👍🏻
What a great job the tractor looks mint and the tinted windows look the part, lee has to be super proud of himself he's done a great job, like the rest of you 👍
Beautiful result, keeping her yellow was definitely the right decision. Well done to all involved, it was great to see everyone pulling together in the final phase, including the workshop banter 🙂. A very fitting tribute to your uncle 👌Kudos to the very talented Lee, Father Phil, and other contributors, but also to you and Liv, who's expertise in keeping the wheels turning on the farming and business side were also vital to the project.
The paint work looked amazing in the evening sun it looked golden pulling the trailer round the field. Well done Lee and father Phil and all the family 👏
Your uncle would be so proud watching down on you racing up the track in the lovely restored I am sure that if he was with us he would have loved to race her up the track
I wasn't keen on your choice of using yellow instead of MF red but now I've seen it completed it looks absolutely fantastic.. well done to all involved 👍
Id nearly say it'd be the perfect thing to gift to Lee afterwards. You've all achieved what you wanted up to now with it and what a great gesture it might be, Lee is a gem.
That's some weapon of a tractor now Phil! Look after her right anyway, fantastic display of heart to your Uncles memory to finally get her done up. Can ye please do something with that poor Zetor Crystal next? Well deserving of some attention and would be a mighty yard tractor to take some hours off that hard working 3075
Fantastic work lads, you should all be very proud of the finished article. A massive amount of time, skill and hardship to get her done to that standard
Absolute credit to you lads and fair play to lee I am so happy he doesn't mind being on camera now!!!phill You have come a long way mechanically since you started your account on TH-cam and I would be willing to bet my life on uncle Ian being so proud of you all !! Top stuff gentlemen achieving this while running a farm restoring a house for yourself and liv running a contracting business and also a TH-cam account is very admirable I have enjoyed every video you have shared with us but the 1200 restoration videos have been by far my favorite hearing father phills wisdom and dedication to see this through for uncle Ian... top stuff !!! TAKE A BOW BOYS🤠
Crystal next. Like the yellow 1200, a well refurbished Crystal is rare. There’s plenty of rebuilt old Masseys about. Only downside is Father Phil's muscle memory and mind memory is all Massey. And I don’t know if there's a Crystal Chris or Zetor Zach around, like there was a Massey Dave for the 1200, to which you can fall back on.
Outstanding job. Always like to see an industrial coloured tractor and you have knocked this one out of the park. What a way to keep the memory of your uncle Ian alive. No doubt it will always be known as his tractor. 👌🏻
I might be wrong but, I think there's an adjustment on the pump for the steering. MF's are strong tractors, one of the very few that's still going strong against the overly expensive JD's. Glad to see her running, sounds good. Turned into a very good restore project, looking forward to seeing more. Great video as always, cheers :)
Well done to ye all for getting it finished,its a credit to ye and I'm sure ye are dam proud of all the hard work that went into it that it came out to such a high standard ,absolute hats off to you all
Nice to see you give a big recognition to lee, thats what stands you out from other you tubers 👌 with out lee and father phil she would not have been looking mint 👍
Great team effort to get it finished looking well👍 I think Father Phill is definitely more a mechanic/fitter then farmer he really enjoys and lightens up in the workshop👍
Great Job Guys, we always put a spare power steering pump & Hydraulic pump belt in place over the drive shaft. it made belt changes easy without having to remove the drive shaft / or move the Engine forward.
U should do up the red 1200 as well it would make fantastic videos the 2 of um together Ik. It would be a lot of work to do up anthor 1 but this time ye have the experience
An emotional time now she is finished. Great video. There was bits in it like Father Ted. Great team effort. Only your family can comprehend the hard work and sacrifice doing this project.😊
Loved that Lee was watch the paint and Jess giggling. Everybody who worked on it you can see was invested in why you did it. Uncle Ian would of loved it there would of been a argument between him and farther Phil what it would be doing after it was finished
Have to say not been the biggest fan of the 1200 but my god you and everyone else have made me change my mind I love it really does look the dogs bullocks your uncle would be over the moon with it absolutely stunning job lads
Lee has been your pallet of time since he started working with you. And she looks amazing, you did your uncle proud
Show room condition
Looks the part lads 👌😍
Fantastic job your uncle be proud of you all well done lads 😊
Seen the 1200 at the pull yesterday, looks unbelievable really does stand out , think 2725 to be restored next 👍🏻

Fair lads yea stuck with it. Its class
That's some weapon of a tractor now Phil! Look after her right anyway, fantastic display of heart to your Uncles memory to finally get her done up.

Great job, it looks mint! The 2725 gets my vote for the next restoration.
Great video. Worthwhile achievement to get the 1200 restored, back running and unique… looking the part in yellow. Keep up the good work.
When considering your next tractor, you need to get the 99 in for a quick tidy up and fix your aircon and the paint. Nice job on the 1200.
Congratulations and well done to everyone involved, brilliant job.
the next one defenetly has to be the 3690 or the 2725
What a beautiful day amazing transformation father and Lee some team
Well done the MF 1200 looks great and sounds well, fantastic job Lee
Great Job Guys, we always put a spare power steering pump & Hydraulic pump belt in place over the drive shaft. it made belt changes easy without having to remove the drive shaft / or move the Engine forward.
