The 9 my grandpa bought new in 72 is being used today by my cousin's future father-in-law. We traded it in 92 or 93 for a 1066 and he bought it, remembered my uncle bragging how tough it was. It was showing just over 11,000 hours when the tach quit, and that was just after he bought it. He's only had the radiator re-cored since then, I think it took a new motor once, and probably a TA or two.
I didn't like the 786. Way too heavy and too tall rubber for the power. Get it stuck, pull it out and finish the job with the 756. Both were running Armstrong radials.
I liked the 2+2. Wasn't much for tillage, but hi TA was out of it. Nice in the summer with that long nose and forward-blowing fan, though.
Styling, I like the 56 series. Performance, 66. I'd like to have that 966 back, and build a 10 that ran like the one we had.

To top that off, you have a cup with oil in it ("why would you want to lubricate your carburetor?"). On closer examination (and some reading in a AC D-14 service manual), I found out that this is a pretty ingenious method of cleaning the air in the tractor's intake tract.
