I still think the first owner pounded the daylights out of it. Just because he could afford to trade it off after 5 years does not mean the guy was a great caretaker. Being five years old unless he parked it in a salt mine or sulfuric acid vat should mean pretty good paint on it. What little I remember the adults talking about tractors back then a GOOD 4010 diesel with WFE should have brought more than 3600 dollars in 1968. 4020 diesels with WFE even syncros were just a little over 8000 dollars unless the dealer was a good discounter. Used tractors the size of a 4010 were in high demand back then so I would think a good low houred tractor like that should have been at least in the low 4's. I don't doubt the poster had problems with that 4010 but there is a lot more to the story. Maybe as a young man there were parts of the story he never heard or his dad never heard.
