Yeah,I know I could be fighting a larger battle. Both my brother(who farms around 1000 acres and does carpentry work on the side) have bought tractors and stuck what we paid for them back in overhauling them, his latest is a 1586. Most of the time a cracked head was a knock in the tractors head though( bad pun yes). I am looking at options now as this tractor is more of a sentimental thing and probably will not get used much.The (having it right) in me keeps me from doing some of the cheaper methods.I have been reading Colby"s rebuild and I probably would not have gone as over the top. If I had $10,000 to spend on a tractor it would have been a 06,56,66 series, I have fond memories of my 706 hauling grain and tilling. I had 160 acres and was working 60 hours a week in a factory at the same time trying to keep my head above water. The farm went and now I have finally gotten back to an acreage. I know there are alot of others who are doing the same thing.

I am still in Agronomy, but specializing in hay and forages. My wife has survived two years of marriage to a part-time farmer. The equipment line up has changed a bit too. The DC has retired to ...
