Today on the channel we are back on the Abandoned Ford 861 Diesel Tractor. It's time to paint and assemble this thing! This project has been dragging on way too long, it's time to wrap it up! Tune in for an amazing transformation and restoration of a piece of vintage iron.

Your wife should be happy you covered up all the oil spots in her garage with paint. That's a considerate husband.

Dad bought the 801 and 881 Select O Speeds in 1960 and 61. First tractors I drove at 6 years old. The 881 was still there when the farm sold 8 years ago. It ran when parked after spending every day cleaning the free stall barns. Watching you bring that one back to life has me amazed. However the cost of the restoration would have taken me years to do.

Nice video, and great job on the restoration. Just a note, there were no 8Ns around in WWII, only 9Ns and 2Ns.

Yup! Waiting until it's tacky and then doing the next coat is called wet on wet, you can do it between types too, like when the primer is tacky spray the top coat, when the top coat is tacky spray the clear coat. Bob.

Having to go through everything from the inside out and to reach the point where you finally place the new tires to the rims and then mount them to the Tractor must be fantastic, awesome feeling!! You did a great job and should be proud of the finished Tractor. I caution against bringing your child in the garage after just painting, even dried paint is harmful to little ones. I look forward to more Videos and awesome content.

Actually working on your own and what you have achieved is credit to you, You seem to have a lot more confidence and completed extremely difficult steps to complete the engine rebuild and fuel system.

you need to swap the rear wheels side to side

- 😂 I saw that. 👀
  @ManMountainMetals6 ай бұрын
- Then the treads would be backward 🤔
  @dieseJL6 ай бұрын
- @dieseJL no keep the tread orientation the same. The center portion should curve out not in. You put em in wrong way round. The easiest way to fix it is to swap em around. No offense they will work just fine the way they are. See the rear tires in original configuration at 0:11 of this video.

It's a shame I don't have the ability to do anything like this currently. I wish I grew up with the old iron. After finishing this project, do you regret doing it?
@GoaEnjoyer16 күн бұрын
You have done a fantastic job on that old girl! Guys at my local tractor shop didn't get the privilege of mounting tires on my fresh painted rims. They most likely would have bent up the new rims. Buncha meat heads.
