The Mighty 1030

Always enjoyed this gutsy piece of literature. I sure enjoy my old timer(1031), especially knowing my butt was sitting in her seat 40 plus years ago.....

Dan as a youngster I studied those lit photo's. Funny I remember that pic from years gone by, but can't remember what I did a week ago, LOL. Thanks for showing, Rod.

Doug, my "1031" will be sold at my estate sale! And probably the "931". Picture I enclose is of her after had just bought it and brought her to the farm. The tractor(1030) has over 18,000 hours.And still has a bark when she is challenged!

Our dealership selling her in 1966 new, and then traded back into us for a "1070" and the "1030" was on our farm for a few years where I ran it in my younger days.

Hopefully I can get some work done on her this year, plan on buying a donor for her also.
I wonder if the Case Company knew these tractors would still be working and doing what they made them for.

We like our 1030 as much as you do Dan. Still useful @ 50 years old. Case tractor engineering was on their game apparently. Don

Looking good Dan, here's his brother. They both sure look better without the cabs on 'em.
