    ARTISTRY ON VIDEO - to you blokes and generations before. In the early 80's in a country town, my service club got a 1920's tractor restarted after weeks of sourcing tyres (English spelling) from farmers as well as a few weeks of constant lubricant soaking before start date. Worked within say 30 seconds on first try. It was part of our town's yearly parade that year. Preserve, preserve.

    Good video. Its clear that you're being honest when you say that this is the first start in all those years. Its annoying how lots of people on CZcams with old engines claim that the engine "hasn't started in X years" only for the engine to start up like it ran 5 minutes before. You can tell that those people are just lying since almost nothing starts up on the first try after a few years.
