Fixing a 1952 Farmall Super H

So for four non-consecutive days, I have been repairing this old 1952 Farmall Super H. My buddy Terry worked on it with my for the first two days, then my buddy Tim helped me on the last two days.Me and Terry are both Canadian Forces Vehicle Techs and my buddy Tim is a Canadian Forces Combat Engineer.We found this tractor at the old dairy farm I worked at before joining the military. I went down for a visit to the old farm when my old boss mentioned he picked up some antique tractors and wondered if I would be interested in fixing them up. For something to do you know, if I got bored. It seemed like a fun project, so I decided to take it up.I asked my buddy Terry if he would be interested in working on it with me. It is always more fun to have somebody to work with I find. And he has been a mechanic longer then me, so it was nice to have him help when things got complicated.When we first started working on the tractor, we found that it had compression. It had no spark, leaks in the input seal to the transmission, the coolant system had multiple leaks as well. Rudy wanted the tractor to be 12 volt, instead of 6 so he had to take the generator in to be converted. The electrical was a mess and needed lots of new wires installed, plus some of the wiring was not hooked up correctly according to the manual.Terry hooked up the wiring pre-new generator. I hooked it up post-new generator. Most of the wiring was correct accept for a few things regarding the fuse box. Lighting to fuse box cable, and start switch to fuse box cable were not hooked up correctly, and there was an extra wire off the amp gauge to the fuse box that didn't even belong. I do not blame Terry, as I expect he just replaced wire with new wire and put wires back where he found them. I had to use the wiring schematics to figure out the new generator and these few hick-ups, but after a couple hours everything was hooked up correctly and works great now.The 12 volt lights Rudy has are not the correct ones and so we need to find the correct lights for this tractor. According to the book, the whole light and housing assembly is replaced when the lights are replaced, but it will be pretty hard to come across those housing now. So we need to find the right light, and replace it in the housing then repair that. But that is minor.The Transmission was filled to the top with water. We drained the transmission and replaced it with clean oil after replacing the input transmission seal. We also replaced the coolant hoses and took care of the leaks. The air filter is one of those wet filters that are filled with engine oil. The air goes through the oil and that is what picks up any debris. We cleaned that filter system and replace. Rudy had the carb rebuilt before we got to the tractor.As for the spark, we just needed a wire connected to the grounding switch, as well as new spark plugs which we had to gap properly. We cleaned the gas tank as well with var-sol and had to clean out the mounting hole threads, as well as clean the fuel jar and replace the inline fuel filter.We reconnected the jack shaft from the clutch shaft to the input shaft into the transmission. We drained and replaced the hydraulic sump oil, and replaced the main hydraulic hose from the pump to the valves. It was cracking bad and when I took it off it crumbled.All in all the project went pretty smooth. It was my first real old restoration project. We got the hood and front cover back on. Rudy said in the summer he will take it and get the it painted professionally.Here are some videos of us test driving the tractor after we got it running. Hope you enjoy.Oh and here are a bunch of pictures as well:
