My Grandpa bought a new '80 1086 in late '79 if I remember correctly, and I think he gave $24,000 cash outright for it. I believe he still has the paperwork around somewhere, as that and possibly a 350 were the only tractors he's ever bought brand new. He still has the 1086. It went 12,000+ hours without having the head lifted, and had rods and mains and a new damper at around 7500. He put a rebuilt engine in it three years ago or so. 3 or 4 T-As in it's life before getting the eliminator kit and being turned into a loader tractor for chores. He has since purchased a Deere 7210 MFWD w/740 loader for a chore tractor, so the old 1086 is pretty much retired. It's still pretty solid but needs a lot of TLC. It's not worth as much as a trade-in as it is to just have around for a spare, so I doubt he'll ever get rid of it.
