    Reminds me of the 8630 I drove back in the 1970's. It was fun times as a teenager! Loved the feel of turning it when it swang around!

    The new tire bill for the beast will be something else. Worth it since you can’t plow effectively with the drag slicks on it now, but new (or new to you) rubber and it will plow like a champ.

      ⁠We put a set on my uncle’s 9120. Never seen him cry before…. Then he hitched up the chisel plow and the tears stopped.

      You'd be surprised how little trwad it takes to pull heavy equipment, we ran out allis 8550 down on fronts to near nothing, still pulled a big 34' chisel a 46' cultivator and oh yea a dmi 12 bottom plow. Likely were we lost tread. Id use those tires

      It's a actually in really good shape and was clearly taken. Care of before parked. Lots of times duals would be off and parts gone on these. Put it to work, it will only run better and better

      Just leave windows open. Are case 1370 will kill you if you shut windows 😄

      The case 1370 uses the York brand air conditioning compressor. When the ac system is charged and compressor is working correctly it will you really keep you cool on 95 degree day.

    Nice man. You have brought some good vibes back into John Deere history. I’m impressed by the interest you have put in it and I am very inspired in the same thing you have done in your future. Let me know more about your future plans.

      Exactly: "at the end of each" 14-word titles--it does not show up even when you're playing the video.
      Don't know how many there are, CZcams only shows the first five or six words. Love the video, love the tractor, love the story. Just CZcams does not make it easy, thanks.

      I’d fix the transmission. Or whatever it needs in time. Some fresh coolant would likely be nice to prevent cavitation. This isn’t a throw away machine. !
