Yeah, they can be tough to find. That was about the time that standards started to disappear. After all, why get a plain old 8-speed standard when you can get a 12 speed shift-on-the-run powershift transmission? However, what standard transmissions there were on the market were just about the most indestructable transmissions I've ever seen, as long as you took care of them. The powershifts of that time could still be rather tempermental, or at least the Case ones were.

Just take my family's Ford 6600 for example. We bought it as an ex-government loader tractor about 10 years ago. It was beat to death and half worn out. The loader is on the sloppy side, and the front axle/steering components are nearing the trouble point. Still, the engine and the 8-speed standard were as tight and strong as ever. It still does chores every day, year after year.
