Rescuing 1960's Tractors for USE on a Friends Farm ~ Forgotten in a CROWD of OTHER old Tractors
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 3 มิ.ย. 2024
- I enjoy old machines & tractors, as you may know, and recently, a friend of mine called me to see if I could help him move a couple of tractors that he purchased from an auction back to his farm. He uses these types of machines on his cattle farm. The two machines are from the 1960's; they are two Case 930 tractors. One is propane and one is diesel. They have been sitting in the mud for decades, but that finally changed! We had to do a few repairs to get the tractors onto the trailer, which I'll show in this video.
I hope you enjoy! I know we did!

Just watched PacificNorthwestHillbilly salvaging a D4 winch. So happy to see fellow TH-camrs getting along and helping or trying to help each other.
You bet! I really appreciate Matt rescuing that for me! Can't wait to get it from him!
Relax, all right? My old man is a television repairman, he's got this ultimate set of tools. I can fix it. - Jeff Spicoli
My Dad is gonna $hit. He’s gonna kill us….
I love the "Now we're going to fix the steering on the other tactor" - Cut to scene of 'hitting it with a hammer and spraying it with WD40" :D
As a New Zealander seeing that Massey Ferguson 50 brought back a lot of memories of standing on the foot wells with my grandfather driving flat out at 40kmh haha
Spent many hours on a 930 Diesel seeding and summer fallowing. Good tractors and easy to work on.
Have a Pitman Polecat PC1300 on Ford F700. Replaced all the cylinder packings, slide bearings and a lot of hoses on mine. No leaks. The main 2 stage extension cylinder on the PC1300 here was mfg by Great Bend industries. Have the Pitman manual and parts catalog for the PC1300. Very handy to have a digger derrick for pole sheds, swapping engines, and other heavy jobs.
Back in the late 1970s, I was grinding a piece of metal without wearing safety glasses and a redhot ember went into my left eye. I learned the hard way that PPE especially safety glasses are very important. Friendly advice.
Not going to mention no guard and aiming it directly at his partners junk and femoral?
had that same cab on our 930 dont think it had a windshield wiper i always took cab off late march nice thing about 30 series they'll start on -40f mornings shift into gear the powershift case not so much modern tractors dont even bother to try the 930 was my go to for daily grinding feed manure spreader bale fork & 3pt snow blower even pull school bus out of ditch 7am can pull a 6/16 plow in 2nd low lightweight & power its the perfect tractor for cutting baling meadows/cattail slews the 1030 had 540/1000 pto
Great Show!! 🥤🍿👏🏻 Good Man Captain red beard to the save the tractors !!💪🏻🤠👍🏻
hi I really like what ous all do, there a old saying I take my hat of to ous for doin extremely hard work.
I grew up on a case comfort King 830 and 1030 tractors. Really enjoyed those tractors raking hay hauling hay hauling manure
I have a 1982 Case 1390.....love it!
These old tractors will outlive all of us if they are taken care of. I’d say, thanks for no more old shop construction vids.
This was a very fun video for me I worked at Oklahoma's biggest tractor auction and bring in Idabel Oklahoma Brinkley's auction for 4 years I had to do this type of thing everyday about 50 times a day I wish I took pictures of all the things that I had to stack on trailers much of which went to Mexico this is bringing back lots of memories
I had a large Gale skytrak which I could do this all day real simply like it was fun for a while and then it became too much had to move on wasn't enough
I could have just stuck my Forks under the tractor and stuck it on your trailer made things go a lot quicker
The most tractors I was able to fit on a semi truck was 9 nine end fords and 2 square balers three four wheelers four riding mowers and other random farm equipment attachments all went to mexico
Great to see the old equipment put back into production. So many farmers end up under water due to loans on new equipment. If you've got the skills this is a great, and prudent, way to go.
When you change your heat on the welder you have to let it go back to idle then change your heat if you don't then you run the risk of messing up the dial changer. I have the same model and that's after I messed up 2 dials because of that. I do love your channel bud and love what you do keep it up because people today would rather let the old iron rot in there yards instead of getting them running again or selling them to people that will
Yep never change amperage settings under load. It will burn the contacts and/or melt them together. AL B.

you now I have a david brown cropmaster
Wow what a process
sure glad to see the old tractors being saved.thank you.grew up on the old case tractors.a 1951 case DC got me started.larry
Good that their parts will be used to keep other tractors going instead sinking into the ground.
Great to see you helping others keep these old machines going. It's especially helpful to keep them going, so smaller farmers don't need to constantly fight the "right to repair" fight of modern equipment.
You're getting really good at these recoveries! Nice to see the machines getting used AND cleaning up the are. Wins all over the place.
Saving old iron is good history preservation, nice that they are not barn queens
To fill a tire that has lost its bead. Put a ratchet strap around the circumference and pull it tight. This will force the bead outward.
Thank you. That is a great, scalable idea.
I'd love to see a follow-up on these old classics and the others he still uses.
Ditto, for sure, I enjoyed the length as well.!
When I was a kid we used case tractors , these are 931s, means that they have a gear drive rear in 930s had chain drive. We had the standard, these are the row crop version. You have a lot of work ahead of you, enjoy
Loading tractors is not edge of the seat entertainment, all good, peace.
great work👍
Yes I like to see old equipment come back to life
A bunch of Cattle and a herd of flowers .
Those are absolutely magnificent pieces of machinery! They have their charm! Love them a lot! I can only imagine how beautiful they are if painted and restored. I wish you had an opportunity to fully restore at least one of those beauties!
Watch all of your videos and thanx for checking the clearance height on the tallest tractor.😀
Great fun , I have enjoyed watching you salvage good old tractors they were all built to work the land with each model bringing its own thing to the game . It’s great to see them being restored thanks.
I'd say if you have a small holding or even a small farm, using these older tractors can make sense, as they don't cost much, there is very little to go wrong on them and they are light weight, so less soil impaction. It's also nice to see the old tractors given a new lease of life.
the product carbon footprint is top notch.

Ok, sorry I just read to much into your answer. Tend to get a bit protective about my old cars.
I've been telling myself I don't need a Milwaukee air pump. This video didn't help. Now I really want one.
Your pal just overcame the huge obstacle of finding parts for those vintage tractors. He is home free now and can rest easy because he has a supply of parts to put those old Cases back to work.
My 3 year old grandson wanted to see the trailer lift off the ground with all those tractors on it! 😁
that propane one is really cool, I have a propane farmall they idle very smooth
goes. quick with 2 guys working in the nice weather......,well worth the time
I love old tools and older machines
Them old cases are they best part of the country they worth a mint
Interesting and entertaining. Enjoyed the problem solving.
Cool video ! Thanks !
All that time digging out the tires, trying to get air in, welding those rusted steering units, getting all set to winch up the tractors an then- brakes set and frozen! Of course the brakes were locked! Duh!😂😂 but you two just keep on keeping on! I love your stick to it never give up attitude! Great job!
The 9 innings were all stood straight up leaning on one another good times
Be very interest watching these old tractors cheaply reconditioned and brought back to working life.
That old equipment is much better and tougher than the new garbage they make .I just bought a new Kubota L6060 the POS uses a full tank of fuel every 10hrs and its a 51 ltr tank ,an just full of electronics .
Love to see a series on getting together with the owner and see those tractors running again
Those big old case horses. Will still do lota work.
every version of that game is actually "Trailer Tetris"
Nice video, thank you! A belt around the tire tread and then tightened will force the tire bead onto the wheel rim for an air seal! Ron PTL USA
This is just awesome Matt! Thanks for sharing!
I love watching this kind of stuff tractors old equipment big machines keep them coming
I love old tractor rescues. Good for him still using these old girls.
Love seeing the service truck working out for you. Looks like it was a major time saver on this project.
930 Case tractors are just what a tractor should be, a giant motor with 4 tires. No frills. Thanks for helping your friend keep his old machines running.
Those are going to be VERY cool for you to do your magic. Thanks for your hard work!
Freaking awesome that y'all can get those monsters moved safely! Cheers!
Enjoyed the video.
thats crazy!.my dad was a korean b-29 tail gunner in korea.and when he got out in 55 his dream was to start a construction buisness.I found a case backhoe that he possibly owned buried in woods and burdocks its a old gasser.rebuilt carb it coughs and backfires just wont move its so stubborn.tanks clean lines clean ect still same thing.on the farmers land i found my dads old trailer that he pulled bulldozer with behind dumptruck in mid 70s not much left of it its down by a creek buried in bushes.this farmer saw i said that my mom passed away on facebook and he looked me up and called me and wow i was amazed.he told when i was in army he bought all my dads stuff at auction i was shocked.i didnt believe it.but now i do i traveled to his place and now a believer
Awesome! Thanks for sharing 👍
Nice to see the 930's spent plenty of hours on one
Great job...liked the improvisation...
Glad to see you working on equipment again.
The Case tractor with the cab on looks just like the tractors that get tipped over in ‘Cars’ the movie with Lighting McQueen 👍👍🇬🇧🇬🇧
Nice to see running around with these old tractors 👍👏👊
Good.job 😄😄👍👍👏👏👏cool ❤
Love seeing you rescue old farm equipment as my grandfather was a farmer and have many good memories of spending time down on the farm and out in the fields with him
Since that truck has air brakes, I know what I would do. I would put me a air chuck on there, and use the truck air to air up those tires. It should build up to 120lbs, more than enough for what you need. it might equalize , but you will get at least 60lbs. Plug in a air hose, and there you are, heck with that battery operated compressor!
Guys this is just get the tractor on the trailer is your winch big enough to just pull it up the ramp chain it down get it to the shop then start the fix's !!!
I would love to see them running, especially the one with the propane tank.
Another great adventure. Might be interesting to see how the Case tractors are put to life again. Onward!
I would love to see these old tractors get fixed appreciate it.💙💙
I could tell that ended up being quite a job, but that's what true friends are for great work my friend.
Can't beat having a few spare tractor's.. just 'inCASE' 🤣🤣🤣🤣
And yeah I would love to see him get those machines working I love that old equipment
Next time use the recovery winch to control the decent. Good video. Thanks.
Good job guys. It was fun watching along with you.
Very nice Recovery / Tool Truck setup
I love it more old iron saved !! I love theses old tractors ....strong ....solid ....reliable !! Great work guys !!! Can't wait to see what's next !! 👍👍
Andrew, Absolutely enjoyed this! The effort put into moving that equipment was only surpassed by your ingenuity to overcome obstacles. Nice job!
Always a good time seeing old tractors being used instead of sitting rusting away.
Hammering seems to be your bliss! For keeping me entertained a million thanks. St. Paul Minnesota.
Matt that was great enjoyed it thank you I never miss a video thank you for sharing and your time was really great 👍
A follow-up would be another great time for us to tag along.
Old iron rocks !
Good to see em going to someone who can use them , parts or fix em up .
in Germany there is a saying. I don't know if there is one in the US.
What doesn't fit is made to fit. It doesn't work, it doesn't exist.
That also applies to you. Thumbs up.
I wish i was there HELPING YOU !
Thanks for the ride along sir, like seeing the old iron being salvaged. Great video. Your crane issue may not be the cylinder/ram it may be the spool valve. I would not mind watching you help out on the rebuild of those tractors.
A interesting video all the way through bro so thanks for taking us along. Safe travels.
I would like to see more of those tractors and see them get back to glory .
I'm watching you guys from Iraq. Great work. How I wish I could be with you in this work
Our neighbor run one of these old girls back in the 70's. Great to hear someone taking the time to keep a few running. Sure I would tag along if you guys want to help. Loved the video
Nice job on the old cases I would have thought the old propane machine is very rare hope we see them up and running in future videos 👍😀
Paul Standing, As I hear it, he intends to butcher that ARARE rig for a few parts. Perhaps he might Trade Up, with a collector, to get a better tractor.?
@@paulsilva3346 yes I hope he trades up with a collector. It seems the old propane tractor is very rare.
A lot of trust in that bottle jack...
I think I learned that milwaukee compressor is too smart for its own good. Love the videos!!!
The case 930 was the first tractor I ever drove,my uncle put that exact cab on it the next year. The only draw back to the cab,was it had a water cooler. Every time you hit a bump,you got a lap full of water. 🤣🤣
really great vid rescuing old case tractors thanks!
Just a note to say, YES, I enjoyed watching. Keep up the good work.
great content Matt. Do a follow up and keep them coming. very entertaining for us oldies that used to drive these machines.
Looks like Ole Red is starting to grow on your face! #TeamBeardedGuys
Great work , I love the truck , the crane and winch is super nice . Glad you helped him save these old machines . The new stuff is to dependent on to many sensors and switches that will not stand the test of time . These old machines set in the weather for decades and they are still worth the effort of repair . Simplicity is the key . I love your channel , great work and craftsmanship .
Next time you experience stick welder problem with current too high, try using a 4ft piece of ½" waterpipe as current regulating resistor in series with the ground lead.
You will need an extra ground lead w/ clips (a jumpstarter cable will do fine).
The more length of water pipe is inserted, the more you lower the welding current.
Quite easy to find the sweet spot.
NOTE: the pipe gets HOT ! (though nothing like red hot)
