That's a nice looking unit right there. The 66 series is the most appealing to me, I do prefer the open stations though.

Those old 15s had some serious power in their day. I remember watching my dad running ours with a chisel back in the early 80s, even a half mile away you could actually feel the noise from the straight pipe. Didn't hurt that it was probably turning around 190 hp.
Yours looks better now than ours did 30 years ago. |

I agree those are some of the best looking tractors ever made by anyone. Used to be a lot of them around here back in the day. |

Back in the day my dad and grandpa had one that was really healthy. To this day dad says it could get the power to the ground better than any other two wheel drive tractor he has ever had. At one time they had a 1586 along side of it and he said it would walk the 1586. |
