I look at old tractors from a parts perspective, The more tractors built,and the longer the build run, the easier time you will have finding parts. While I like Case tractors, that funky power shift is a big turn off, and getting parts,or finding someone who knows how to repair the power shift could be a issue. Remember a 1070 is a over 40 year old tractor. White tractors where I believe to also be a very good tractor, but the parent company is gone so far back into the dust of time , Agco would like to forget that they ever existed. IH built thousands of 966/986 1066/1086 tractors, and the TA goes all the way back into the late 1950's and was still available right up till the big CaseIH merger in 1987. So to me the IH 986 would be my pick. A 986 is the same tractor as a 1086, only the 1086 has a turbo, while the 986 is naturally aspirated. Bruce
