Nope , BTDT . Back many years ago had a guy and his dad come to me wanting a 1066 . Told them that i would find them a GO TO THE FIELD one for 85-8750 and have it setting on my lot in a week as it was a off week for any sales . His dad said that that was way over priced and they would keep looking , ok fine by me as i could use that money i would have to spend to buy , haul and check over and fix anything that was needed and spend it on stuff that would turn a buck. So i watched some nice 1066's go thru the sales and never bid on any of them . and sorta forgot about Randy and his dad. Well one day they both showed up at the shop and wanted me to put a clutch and T/a in a 1066 that they had found . when it came in i about fell over . I knew the tractor . This 1066 has sat since 1974 or 75 in three pieces from being hit by a semi dump loaded with coal . Way back shortly after this happened i tried to buy it myself till i looked the tractor over and walked away . well someone had end up buying it and did a hack job of putting it back together then left it set out for god only knows how long. They micky moused the dash support back together with flat strap and 1/4 inch bolts and welded the mangled up fenders to the deck plate . Now they want me to fix this piece of junk . Hey it is there money so i start and that is when the fun began Every bolt twisted off , and that was the start of the fun . Each and every gear was junk plus both the top and bottom shafts all the bearings were toast and that was just in the speed transmission. There was NO wiring harness Non anywhere on the tractor other then one wire from the battery to the starter button the key switch was just for looks. No brakes bald tires and rusty paint no seat back and all that was left was the seat pan. When i got into the transmission and saw what was there i stopped and called them to come and look BEFORE i went any feather and made them come and look . I asked them well now what do you want to do . i about fell on the floor when they said FIX it and make it wright 100% So for over the next three weeks we did everything and when i had my part done the tire guys show up and put all new rubber on it , then my one buddy did a paint job on it between the two of us not counting the tire guys the bill was just shy of 21000 buck. But the 1066 that i would have sold them was at most 8750. Yep they could find one cheaper .

Today's Featured Article - The Nuts and Bolts of Fasteners - Part 2 - by Curtis Von Fange. In our previous article we discussed capscrews, bolts, and nuts along with their relative hardness and thread sizes.
