If you want an older true 4WD go with a Versatile or Steiger. I know a little more about Versatile than I do Steiger but both are component built tractors. These are the guys that showed everyone else how to build true 4WD's. I'm not so familiar with Steiger as I am Versatile. On a Versatile you can remove any component (engine, transmission,axles, etc. without disturbing any other major component (the transmission is mounted separate to the engine in the frame). You can replace a clutch in 2-3 hours. On the older Deeres or Case ? -try a day and you need heavy equipment to do it. Some of these machines will have high hours but there are many older 4WD's with not so many hours. Often farmers who used these only used them for the real heavy tillage work. The transmissions and plantetaries were more than adequate for the job so if you make sure you're OK here you'll be good for a long time. Making sure you're getting a good engine is probably your major concern. The 1970's built tractors are getting pretty cheap now.
