Kansas | Would like to find something about 100hp to pull 8 row planter and maybe put loader on, but would need to be in price range of something from the 70's or 80's. Criteria is something with a full front glass and no corner door (thus eliminating JD and White), lights in the grill to see where markers run at night if needed (eliminates Deere again). In my mind this leaves choices like;
2090 Case
1066-86 IH
Oliver 1955
MF (not sure of model)
The 2090 and the IH's are easier to come by, but I've heard IH tractors of that era make lousy loader tractors (shifting issues), an Oliver would be fine but finding one with the cab (if it had one) in good shape is difficult (same probably goes for the 1066 too), and I don't know anything about MF's. Not sure if I'd want a tractor without a cab (I'd sure want something like the oringinal ROPS canopy if not). I've thought about the Case 1030, but I've heard they are trouble. | |

What would make a good planter tractor?
