Trying to get a new 36' X 48' X 10' pole barn up before it's too cold. Got 2" of snow a few days ago but it's all gone now. Tried to lift the trusses with my backhoe but it would not work. So we used my 1960 John Deere 1010 crawler-loader. Bolted a 8 foot 4" X 6" wood beam to the bucket and made a crane out of it. Worked out nicely although I doubt OSHA would approve. Out of all the old farm tractors, hoes, and crawlers I've got around - I think the 1010 John Deere has been the most handy and reliable old machine I've ever owned. 54 year old machine and still runs great. Tally for the barn materials is $9760 plus a $300 building permit here in Northern Michigan which I consider highway robbery.

After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
