Below is kind of a re-post from my "School Me on Case Tractors" post. I think that post got buried so re-posting to bring it back to the top.
Which is most desired - 8 speed or chain drive tranny? It sounds like both are bullet proof. Is one simpler than the other to maintain/service?
How are these 30 series Case tractors for jumping out of gear when going down a hill - with a wagon or baler or both behind? Sounds like the brakes on these tractors aren't all that great - but easily serviced?
Deere 4020's - some like the later side console and 12V models, others like the earlier ones.
Early vs late 30 series tractors. Which is more desirable (from a worker standpoint than collector) - 8 speed or chain drive? I gather the 8 speed was the change over to Comfort King models?
One book was mentioned, when I look at Amazon, I see several. Is there a "go-to" book that Case tractor collectors prefer over another - recommendations?
Very interesting tractors - sound like when compared to IH or JD, cheap hp, especially the 930.
Thanks again for everyone's replies.
