My cousin just sold his 8010.

Shipping from MO would probably kill.

I would sell our maroon belly 7000 in a heartbeat if I could use it in trade for a 8010 or 8030.

Ours came without a door. Got a door for free and cleaned it up. 3 coats corporate orange, tinted the glass, replaced seals and PS sticker.

No trade.

He has a nice maroon belly 7000. He bought my fil 175 diesel a month or so ago after he sold the 810 to the neighbors. They do all their row cropping with 7060's and now an 8010. The rest of their fleet is all pre Duetz AC!

That's what we're shooting for. You had to shown tint. An 8010 PS with front assist would be lovely. I've got a 12valve Cummins sitting here waiting for one.

Tint on these almost turns the cab into a freezer!

While I was growing up, we farmed with a D-19, a 180, and a 190XT. The 190XT got traded for the 7000, and the D19 got traded for a Deutz 6265 over time. Still have both of them, plus an IH 1066, and my uncle still has the 180.

All orange is the dream, for sure.

We had WD 45's here, with the 8n's, 2n's and the 53 Jubilee, then the 3010 John Deere about 1969, then the 160 Allis Chalmers. ( I love them all! )

Enough to heat with?

I dug a dump truck and a dump trailer load. That’s enough to heat my work shop.

I could dug more then I could ever burn if I dug for a few days.

So you're a farmer and a miner!

Instead of a firewood GTG, we could have a coal mining GTG...

It’s in my blood, my great grandpa had 3-4 different shafts on the farm back in the day. My grandpa always said there’s another deeper vain that they couldn’t dig because of the water.

I’m digging not far from the shaft in this old picture. I believe that this picture was taken the day they pushed it shut after years of being left open.







This was about where the old shaft was.
