    I'm an old man now, x farmer and so pleased to see the younger generation taking up this work. People like this go to make a great country.

    Andrew,
    Am so glad that I found your videos. They are so enjoyable. I can't get enough of watching you. You never swear in any of the ones I've watched. I have high respect for you young man !!
    Keep up the great work !
    One other thing, your young right now, get help when lifting heavy items. Don't mess your back up. Don't end up like me. Please !
    Sincerely, Jim.

    I feel for you my friend. I bought a basket case 1939 B about 7 years ago now and just in the last year (2021) I really made an effort to complete an almost total restoration of it. I am now in the seven to eight thousand dollar range and I have yet to drive it. I figure I will have a total of around nine thousand dollars in it. Two thousand in just the engine. I am into it to the point I could never sell it for what I have in it so I must finish it. Good luck with yours...

    • @thesmallenginekid
      @thesmallenginekid  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      thanks. You'r right, it is not economical to restore and sell these tractors. I probably should have parted this one out. But is obviously too late. I still need to find a set of tires for it.

    Great job young man FYI and you already probably know this the fly wheel has a timing mark on it let her stamp V in addition to be in the timing of the engine it is the counterweight for the crankshaft the opposite side of the crankshaft where the clutch is attaches also has a ladder stand V and it is a counter weight for the crankshaft just thought I’d throw that in there he did a great job

    The trick when using silicone is to tighten down until you are lightly touching the silicone with the entire surface and let it cure for at least a few hours preferably a day then tighten down to spec (recommended torque)

    • @thesmallenginekid
      @thesmallenginekid  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I suggest buying a service manual on eBay or probably Amazon. For parts Steiner has pretty much all you need. If you need cheaper used parts Rusty Acres Ranch (vintagetractors.com) parts out a lot of B’s.

      @thesmallenginekid  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I would love to have a farm to use them! I do drive them down the street, go to tractor pulls, and local parades. I sold a Farmall C that is being used in Guatamala now.

      Yes. Part 2 of this tractor will cover sheet metal work, paint and reassembly.
