My wife's boss, the guy who owns the company, has a farm thats been dormant for some time. Knowing I tool around on tractors, he asked if I would take a ride over and look at two tractors sitting in the brush.
One of them I couldnt identify because its that covered in brush and weeds(and it was raining and there was 2ft of mud around it). The other is a International Harvester 1066. Knowing what I know about the guy, he would rather go out and buy another tractor long before sinking any time, effort and money into this one.
From the inital look, some of the sheet metal is gone(half), and the radiator is missing. Other than that, its all there. Tires are there and hold air.
No idea of the mechanical condition but I would be amazed if it simply turned over.
Whats a 1066 like this worth? I would probably park it out back for some years and eventually get to building an insane puller with it....some day.
