Well everyone I did it! I got my first ever Case tractor home tonight. I got a 1070 Case. I am so happy. I spent many hours in one like my new to me tractor for a neighbor many years ago. I felt so good to be in a 70 series tractor again. Can't wait to put her to work in the field!

Nice tractor. Is that a rock box or a weight on the front?

Nice! I spent a lot of hours in the late 90's helping a freind with a couple of 970's with cabs. One of the easyest operating tractors I've ever operated. Did tillage, hay cutting, chopping both corn and hay. Really liked em, just wish they were in my current budget.

Thank you. I have been searching for many years trying to find a good one. Finally found her only 3 miles from my farm.

Hi Rick,
Been reading your postings on here lately. Nice to have you on here. Just keep your eyes open. This one came up out of the blue so fast. I wasn't expecting a different tractor this year. There out there.

LOL yea right now I have to have by next year a combine with pickup and corn head and a grinder mixer. Would like to have a 40-70 hp tractor with decent hydraulics and PS. Plus my budget isn't much. We are trying to get the family farm going again with us doing the field work and harvesting.....the catch is without debt. Would be nice to have one tractor on the haybine and one on the baler (requires 70 PTO HP). I'm posed to jump on what ever comes up that fits that months budget! Only going to be haying/tilling about 70 acres to feed our critters. Ain't engouh to make it with grain for market but I can rasie and sell criters without paying out lots for feed.
Very happy for you sense you found what you were looking for and close to home too!
Now if you would just let me borrow it for the next decade or so..... 
Rick

Kow Farmer,
Good for you! I hope you enjoy many hours on that old warhorse. Case really had it going in the 70's. Don

Gotta love it when they are close enough to drive home. She looks good.

Thanks CNT,
I might have to ask some questions about the ol' girl in the future. Hope you don't mind. You have lots of wit and wisdom with the 70 series tractors.
