I posted a picture in the tractor photo section today. I put a water pump on it this afternoon and this tractor has 24,000 hours on it. Engine and transmission have never been apart. These were one tough little tractor!

Elmer, Tell us more. I do a lot of Case/DB repairs for folks here (used to have a couple of good local dealers) and trying to learn all I can about them. Most of the ones I see with engine problems have the bottems torn up from inadequate oil changing or inadequate oil bath air cleaner servicing. Of course if my overhauls were lasting that long I might be ou of work.

I was told this fellow had this 770. Tried to buy it from him for a man in Colorado. He said there was not enough money to buy that tractor from him. When he bought the farm from his dad in '68, his dad went and bought the 770 to do custom work to keep himself busy. He did everything from spring plowing to snowblowing in the winter. The old man really did keep himself busy with it. Service was religious and it shows, plus long running hours helps stack up hours for longevity. AS far as i am concerned after being self employed in general farm equipment repair for 12 years and being in the trade for 28 years i would have to say that when it comes to a 3 cylinder diesel David Brown is a tough one to beat.

Cant beleve those hours,it must have been looked after,the 3 cylinder Browns were a good tractor.
I got back late tonight and missed an important meeting at Durker Roods, David Browns old House,about 40 miles up the road from here ,now a hotel.The last Brown built has been shipped back to Meltham, donated to the David Brown club by C.N.H. from Racine,tonight was the unveiling cerimony.

Elmer thanks for your posting,how did this tractor manage to run up so many hours? it is a credit to its owner to have done this without a major overhaul, and it looks good too.what a credit to british engineering.
