I spent thousands of hours in both and wrenched on each from weight bracket to drawbar hole. Get a 10 or 1486, for the reasons others stated such as decent cab and reliable (at least fixable) air conditioning. And for service and repair work the 86 series is night and day compared to a 66 with a cab (being miserable to work on.) A 1086 is the easiest tractor ever built to work on, even easier than an "M" in my opinion. The downside to putting one on a grain cart is the dry clutch. Lots of people hate 86s but I think they are allright. Buy one reasonable and treat it right it should make you lots of $$.
