Ok here are two things think about ,She is going to need a ton of work to get it back up and running and it is going to cost ya half a kings ransom to have it hauled home from down there and a 1066 falls under the oversize load and will need and over width permit for all states involved and that don't come cheap.I did a rebuild on a Cheap 1066back 10-15 years ago . Now this guy could have bought a go to the field 1066 from me for 85-9000 bucks that i would have stood behind for 30 days . But no he just knew that they could get one cheaper . Well they bought the tractor for 5500 and whe4n it was dropped off at there place as is they soon found out and guess who they came cryen to to fix it . Well lets see here T/A out needs a clutch , ok this is how much THIS is going to cost so i get the gohead and when the nuts and bolts started coming out ( the hard way as EVERY BOLT BROKE OFF ) now that gets into time and mat. Get into the speed trans and ALL the gears are trashed along with the top and bottom shaft . Stopped work and call as i wanted them to see what was going on and see just what they wanted to do . Well two new shafts and all new gears and this was just the start of this story as that 1066 was tore down to bear cases and block and rebuilt trewired and new tires and a total resto paint job when the adding machine stopped they were just a wisker shy of 20000 grad in that tractor But hey she was rebuilt and i made more on that then the 1000 i would have made on the sale of one of mine .
