Hi everyone, this past weekend we attended an auction for a near by seed corn company going out of business. We were looking for another smaller horsepower tractor but had no intentions on buying anything too soon. Well...........there was a 1977 Case Agri King 1070 with about 5,000 hours on it and we got the winning bid of $8,500. The tractor isn't in too bad of shape, faded paint, and some rust no signs of oil leaks, or a bad tranny. When we brought the tractor home we were cleaning out the cab and found a folder with all the records and even some pictures of it in the field. This tractor will be a nice addition to the farm, and more than likely this next winter will be torn apart rebuilt, and repainted. As usual any comments, concerns, smart remarks, or questions are welcome. Thanks for viewing. Pulling into the yard.(don't mind the fall background have it set up for a show tomorrow) Off the trailer parked by the barn. Couldn't resist we had to put it to work right away. Pictures we found in the cab. If you;d like to see the build of this project heres the liink: toyfarminllc.proboards.com/index.cgi?action=display&board=custom&thread=2240&page=1#13086

Kaltenberg? LOL You going to the auction this week? haha that's sort of where I got the idea from. Thought it'd be a different story line than the typical farm auction. Yeah my other boss and I are going to go there and look at the sprayers. Looking at some other forums on the internet sounds like they'll be a big crowd and the machinery will go for a good price.
