I have many channels in my feed but when Marty uploads is the only time I’m truly happy I have TH-cam.
Literally when Marty uploads, it's the only time I press on it straight away. The others get cleared till later 😂
Hear hear!!
😂 well said sir
Same here.. It's a shame that at this point 9000 views with only 2.5 likes helps him so much.
Me too👍👍
Marty, "will it start?" Is always a rhetorical question with you 😂
Great video as always!
Lol I thought the same thing to myself when I read the title
This man can start up a submarine sunk 😂
Engine missing... he drives it home 😆
Little does that Allis know it has just hit the tractor lottery and now will live a life of luxury.
And a bunch of relatives!
I said that about my tractor after I brought it home. If you'd have seen the place I bought it from, you'd understand. Nice people but looked like extras from the movie The Hills Have Eyes. Tractor was outside in a junk infested unkempt, weed filled back yard next to a swimming pool that looked like you could fish in it and catch trout.
What did your wife say about not bringing home anymore tractors.
@@nicholasproietto2500"im gonna take you away from these bad people little tractor"
@@nicholasproietto2500 At least they were nice people...
I can just imagine the sigh MrsT makes when she sees Marty leaving w/ the trailer hooked up. LOL You are the Tractor Whisperer!
😂
Yes, we need an audio of Mrs T as Marty drives through the gate. I reckon it'll be something along the lines of "Oh for ........ not another one" 😂
@@MartyT can we get her reactions/thoughts of your ventures?
Marty always makes it look simple. He's the definitive troubleshooter and a most enjoyable youtuber.
Hes just doin things heaps practical, love it ^^
What a perfect way to sit with a coffee on a Monday morning, thanks for the video marty, constant inspiration to enjoy life
I like the authenticity of these "will it start" videos. Nothing is done for the sole purpose of views.
Spoiler: For Marty, they always start. The question is rhetorical.
What do you mean in dummies English ?
How authentica can it be when he has never failed to start / fix something. Wouldn't be surprised to see him find a spare tyre, spark plug and a fan belt in a paddock, start it, drive it home and grade his drive way.
I love the absence of fake drama, too
Could watch your videos all day every day mate.
Marty: "Honey, I got something for ya!"
The Missus: "Not another bl**dy tractor is it?"
You are amazing! I really enjoying you bringing back old and forgotten machines.
Marty, you're a magician! As always, another satisfying video from you...
My Grandpa died before I was born, he bought an allis B brand new in 1938.. Its the only thing of his that I have... Ive got the original bill of sale with it.. My goal is to restore it!
Thanks Marty!
As always an enjoyable video. Marty is at the top of my list of favorites because of his skill and calm demeanor.
I will never get bored of watching you fix something, and then drive it on to your trailer, which you fixed.
What a great find. This old girl should be restored to her loving best to celebrate a long working life. History needs to be preserved and if this old girl could talk what a story she could tell.
That would be great. The new generation...
I agree, what a great series of Marty Vids that would be.
I suspect someone already has the perfect museum piece. Setting it up to reliably get its hands dirty would seem like an honest tribute to me.
As a lad, dad brought home one about a decade newer, it had the adjustable front end and distributor/alternator.
I want to say someone made a 3-point conversion, you may be able to find enough info to scrounge one together.
Another very lucky tractor saved by Marty from a lonely retirement destined to rust away neglected with only memories of its once proud owner feeding it clean fuel and fresh oil.
what a beaut as a patina survivor tractor, well done Marty
It always amazes me how longer lasting older technology is epic video Marty
the content we all come here for
Another resurrection by the Patron Saint of old machines!
Can't wait to see the wood saw in action.
I like those types of tractors. The Farmall is another. No electronics, no computers....just hard working machines and EASY to work on. 👍🔧
You had that old tractor purring like a happy kitten
Marty, it is amazing the "touch" you have with these old machines. Eighty years old and you brought it back to life. Good video.
I appreciate the simplicity of older engines.
"It's mine! My own, my precious." 😂😂 ITS REAL"TREASURE"
Marty on the big stuff, James Condon on the small engines, YT heaven
The history of the Allis B in the UK is interesting. 1000's were imported from the USA early in WWII. My uncle bought one in 1940 for 100 pounds brand new. For many UK farmers it was the first time they had anything other than a horse.The UK models were usually Petrol to start converting to TVO when the engine warmed up. Uncle's never had electric start fitted because it crank started so easily. (I noted your 2nd and 3rd starts. Allis also produced a small (5' cut!) trailer combine(Allis C) which had a more powerful engine. We cannibalised one of those for the tractor and a good machine suddenly became very good. Uncle sold the B in 1977 for 50 pounds to a young neighbour who still uses it, particularly on soft ground in winter because it doesn't tear the ground up (so light) . I have never seen the sawmill before but they came with a range of mid-mounted equipment. Definitely a blast from the past, which I spent hundreds of hours piloting. Good memories.
Can you imagine in the year 2104 a 2024 tractor being able to be brought back to life as simply as that...?
Nice save Marty!
Cheers from Tokyo!
No I can't, but I'll wager tractors from the 1920s through the 1970s will still be putting along. I have a cub of that vintage and while it sits for months, pull the choke with ignition off and crank slowly twice, switch on the ignition and it almost always starts on the first crank.
No cuss, no fuss, just straight up fixin'. Such a great guy. Thank you for sharing with us. Those belt making materials don't grow on trees. Cherish them. lol Great little tractor and the saw setup is right up your alley. Have fun with it.
I think we had one of those when I was about 10 years old, so around 1970. I thought it had the steering column canted to one side, but I must have remembered that wrongly. It must have been a Model B as it was tiny. We called it "Chuffy" because of its characteristic exhaust sound. A handy little tractor for a small farm. Another great video, thanks Marty!
I love Allis-Chalmers Tractors. Can't wait! D15/D17
I am always amazed when you take a machine that's not been run in 20 years or so and bring it back to life.
What a cute tractor! Tractors are tractors, but there's something about the proportions of this one that make it very photogenic.
The wife " not another bloody tractor go find me a classic holden"
Marty's a badass, can crank start an 80 year old tractor and not even lose his sunglasses off his forhead!
Simple mechanics combined with ascetics makes this very photogenic: guaranteed to make anyone smile😀
Little Marty, "did you tell mom you bought another tractor?" :) love the videos!!!
The carb takedown always evokes anxiety.
😮😂
Bloody things. Done hundreds of them. It's like brain surgery. Careful where you point that air. Or it's "Wheee - see ya later"
The rooster crowing had me in tears, I really miss farming.... Blessings from Chattanooga Tennessee
Always love watching someone bring new life to an old machine, also love bringing an old machine back to life myself.
The old just wanted to get back into the fields and do some work!
Thanks for sharing 🇨🇦
Great job Marty !! It's amazing how the vintage machines stand up to time !!!
Marty's magic never fails, I actually thought that this one might be more of a challenge than others, but once again he proved me wrong !
i find your videos fascinating, bringing these old mechanical beasts back to life.
Evening mate, this upload brings back memories!
My father bought an old Aliss way back in the seventies, he was in the waste reclamation industry and stuff like this came along from time to time.
The one he had might’ve been earlier than the one here, it had to be swung as I remember and it kicked like a bugger!
He bought it home on a low loader and started it after putting some petrol in it, ( it started on petrol but ran on TVO-tractor vaporising oil)in just a few swings!
He proceeded to drive it around the lawn, tearing it up in chunks! My mother was not thrilled but he was laughing like a kid and popping wheelies it had so much torque! I later understood that this propensity for early tractors to rear up on the back wheels killed more than a few operators and hastened the development of the three point linkage.
He put it in a barn and was intent on restoring it but , like most men in his industry, when a profit came along he took it and bought something else!🤣
It was fun to watch but not particularly safe! Take a note mate, they can flip over with devastating consequences.
The same thing can happen with some 60s tractors if you put something too heavy onto the three point hitch. I helped clean up the aftermath of an accident like that just a few years ago, thankfully with barely any consequences. The threaded rod on the linkage broke and the driver was pretty shaken because he had no longer been able to steer. He did brake fairly quickly but not quite fast enough.
Some hard lessons were learned back in the early days, sadly too hard for some. The manufacturers of equipment developed much safer systems so those hardworking people’ terrible sacrifices weren’t in vain.
Modern agricultural machinery is much safer and operator friendly.
It’s a pity we don’t learn and evolve as quickly in other facets of our existence.
Honey, I got you a present! ... "It's not another 70 year old tractor is it?" ... Well, you know how you're always cold in the winter? "Yeah?" .... So, TECHNICALLY, it is a tractor... BUT it can also be used as a sawmill to make fire wood to warm you up ... "🙄"
Eighty-year-old shakes off a 20 yearlong nap and is super keen to get back to work :)
That sound reminds me of my Mother and Father, sweet and happy
Another old tractor saved . And of course it starts right up . Marty you are the man . I was just fixed to go to bed when video came . Of course had to watch. Great video.
Marty is a magician. This tractor works a treat!
my grandfather taught me to crank the engine by hand, only hold the crank with your left had, and pull up, holding your left wrist with your right hand for more power, because if the engine backfires, you will take the blow on an open hand rather than the back of your right hand and break bones. Wonderful as usual, you are amazing at bring old equipment back to life. Thanks for sharing.
What a beautiful machine. You look properly at home driving that, it suits you!
I thought like with that hand crank this thing will never start, you're a magician!
The magneto has an "impulse" start..
the "flick" from turning it by hand is the same as full strength spark when running.
So naturally it will start on the crank...
When the starter is used the voltage doesn't drop
(as it would when the starter and the coil were both draining the battery during starting)
so there will be instantaneous starts...
Allis Chalmers made everything from tractors to switch gear etc. Great video.
Yes Allis Chalmers is very big company those years and make many country.
Excellent video mate. That saw sure is handy. I could stand there all day cutting firewood. Thanks mate.
Great to see another one brought back to life! Well done Marty
Another great rescue. Enjoy
But honey, it just followed me home🤣
Thank you Marty i enjoy your videos
Three years ago my wife and I bought 2 acres with lakefront and I would really love to find a machine like this to restore vs. buying new. Watching your videos for a long time makes me think I could actually make it work!
Always enjoy whatever you are showing. Thanks.
Fantastic stuff. I love how you reuse these old tractors instead of letting them rust away and be dumped. I would kill for an old girl like this in my yard!
As an expatriate Wairarapian I appreciate the backdrop and can do attitude. Another very entertaining video. Keeps me in touch with my heritage.
I love it when they come back to life and just smile :D
What a wonderful old Tractor, it's even older than I am lol
80 years old, has not run in 20 years, then Marty does his magic and just for a big finish he HAND cranks the beast to life! I am impressed.
Beautiful. I worked on some of those old Allis Chalmers tractors. They were very reliable and quite useful. When I worked for the US Postal Service, we used quite a few of those laced belts. There is a machine that allows you to perfectly cut the belt and crimp in the lacing, but if you are careful, you can cut square ends and drive the lacing into the ends with a hammer. Use a rod through the laces to keep them from collapsing when you install them.
I couldn't help giggling as you drove it off home...like you need another tractor aye 😂
This gives me flashbacks! My dad had an Allis Chalmers A Model when I was small. Super tractor for a small garden!
Awesome, another old girl saved! The little "AH!" face when she popped for the first time 😁
The oil bath air cleaners don't actually have the air traveling through the oil. The air travels down towards the surface of the oil and takes a 180° turn and travels up into the carburettor.
The 180° turn causes particles to hit the oil and stay there due to their angular momentum.
The metal mesh in the filter catches any oil splashed by the air flow and lets it drain back into the bath and not carry on into the cylinders to cause carbon deposits
That is a lovely sounding tractor Marty. Thank you for bringing it to life and hopefully it gets to be "useful" again. What a nice machine you found!
I learned to drive on one of those back in the early seventies. Sweet memories!
Cheers Marty - great to hear the little Allis burst into life. I gather that these tractors were designed to be used in the remote parts of the US and so had to be simple and able to be repaired by farmhands since garages were few and far between.
What a honey! Nice work Marty
Yeh, what's one more tractor? Good one, Marty; it made my morning.
Mind your fingers with that lacing (Alligator clips on the belting), them points gash the ends of your fingers and thumbs for fun! Another worthwhile save Marty, well done.
Marty you the man! great job! Love the revival!
Great to hear that engine come to life! Well done, Marty T.
Great find!! Those old tractors are quite handy. It's amazing how much work they are capable of. My grandfather used a Farmall Cub to farm 40 acres. Had a one bottom plow, small disk, two-gang harrow, one row planter, sickle bar mower and a front dozer blade.
Brings back great memories of the 1950s learning how to drive grandads little tractor. Remember sitting next to him as he showed all the how to's. And hand cranking it and backfiring and nearly hitting my jaw. Did a good bit of mowing pulling an old cycle mower behind. Thanks Marty.
Marty T scratches the itch, as always. Top Class
Such a beaut! Looking forward to the next one seeing that saw mill hooked up to the PTO. Cheers for the awesome content Marty!🎉
This brings back memories, my grandfather had a B model when I was a kid. Reliable as the sunrise and simple as a wagon wheel.
What a nice find that was Marty,and the roosters in the background added a nice touch to the video.
That looks like a Fairbanks Morse magneto. If it is you can depend on it for another 60 years! Great job of getting that old girl running and moving. Thanks, Marty.
Oh, you make it look so easy. When I try fixing things....well, it's a whole different story.
It’s not for me Darling, it’s so the kids have something to drive to school 🤠
You made that look easy. That or you are just lucky, well done!
Some parts of Allis Chalmers still exist as subsidiaries of other companies. I worked for AC as a recent college grad at the company's HQ in West Allis in the early 80's. It was a huge company with an illustrious history dating back to the Civil War. In addition to making tractors and combines, it built rotary kilns for processing taconite ore, the hydraulic turbines for the Aswan High Dam, and the blowers used at Oak Ridge during the Manhattan Project for the uranium gaseous diffusion separation process. Unfortunately, by the late 1970's, the company was being very badly managed, tens of thousands of workers were laid off in the early 80's, and the various subsidiaries were sold off or shutdown.
Marty, you are the most patient guy I've ever watched on TH-cam. Thank you for another entertaining video, Mate!!😊😊😊
Outstanding. The outcome was never in question lol. Interesting tractor. Perfect size for a 1 acre garden.
your face lit up like a boy when it nearly started....you knew marty just knows everytime 👊
Drove a slitley newer version on our farm in the 1950s, mowing, tedding and hay bale loading. Never had any problem with flipping backwards. Great basic tractor.
You are the best as a mechanic Marty
See from Portugal 🇵🇹🙂
Marty’s motors strikes again!!! Excellent mate… 👍
I knew you would not leave without this fix. The step by step process you go through on all these large repair jobs is the same which helps any of us that might want to take on a project of this magnitude. Fuel, spark, carb, oil, wheels/tires, fluid levels, etc. And if all works, move forward with a more formal restoration. I think you should consider writing a book on basic restoration repairs. I know I'd buy a copy. As usual, great job!
Not a question of "will it start?" to " WHEN will it start? " Good stuff when Marty comes around. Beautiful machine happy days!
You jammy bugger! I’d never would’ve been so lucky to get that carb gasket off in one piece! 😂
Runs , idles , purrs like a kitten !
