Saving a WW2 M5 High-Speed Tractor – Until We Opened the Engine…
This week we head out to help a mate with his M5 High-Speed Tractor project — a rare bit of wartime kit with a seriously knackered engine. We pull the motor out and crack it open to see if there’s any hope… but things don’t quite go to plan. As always, a bit of tea, tools, and teamwork go a long way — even when the news isn’t good. 🔧 Subscribe for more historic vehicle rescues, restorations, and the occasional disaster.
