OK guy's this is one subject on Case I do remember well as I always LOVED the Black Knight paint I sure wish I could find the 1070 we had, it went to the Billings MT area as others have said Demo's were on lots for some time after they did the Demo's, here every one wanted a regular painted one and a new one not one every one had ran, and we ended transfering it as we were making intrest payments and things were on a tight rope as far as money then to say the least, we did not get a GD unit in as when they came out we had 4 or 5 "70" series already in and they were moving just fine, we would do a demo and out the door they went, myself I was never wild about the color scheme on the GD trators it just never really fit to me but when the BK's were released I thought they were the sharpest thing out at the time, the "Golden Demo" on the build cards makes sence to me after I have read some of my lit and such as the program from start to finish was "The Golden Opportunity Demostrator Tractor" so reguardless of the paint scheme the card read the same, hope this makes things a bit clearer, I remember unloading ours doing a "run in" on the Dyno and taking her to the field with 6-16" semi-mount plow, a 32' "FC" field cultivator (I still have it) and a 22' tandeum disc and a 12' offset disc on many demos, I think ours had around 350hrs when it was transfered, by the way it was a 1070 with cab a/c htr radio Agri-King cloth seat 3pt 540/1000 pto 6 rear wh weights and 10 front with the wrap weights on the front, 10.00x16 front and 20.8x38 rears cnt
