Nice job on the shed. I had a 826 and sold it and bought a 986 and I miss the 826 it was a good handling tractor and it was pulling 120 on the Dyno and it never gave any trouble. I still have a 1066 mine has the 2 post with the canopy. I'll never get rid of it as it is my go to. Good luck with your decision. They are both good tractors. The 1066 is easier to get injection pumps and injectors for. Both look nice especially the 1066. If it was mine I'd put a muffler back on it for your hearing as I had to on mine.

You got to go with the 1066. That thing looks sharp!!

1066 would be my go too

personally, i would get the one with the cab, you are not getting any younger and having a dry place and a heater in the winter / fall is a good thing. it also looks like a tough as nails tractor!

That 1066 would be vary hard for me to pass by . Lol

The barn turned out real nice.

I would get the 1066. It looks like a nice tractor. A cab with Ac and heat is great. If you ever mowed over a yellow jackets nest you would wish you had a cab, lol. I did with my 886 and those buggers were plastered on the rear window and no way to get in.

Wow I don't remember seeing that barn. Maybe before my time?? Pretty busy there. I love how those chickens are running around😅 🐓🐔

826 is a beast but the 1066 will be a better investment and all around work horse. Especially with that cab in the shape it is in. Can’t go wrong tho

Top Shelf 1066. I'm afraid I'd go that direction.

Love the new shelter. You can't have too many.

The roofing looks great Farmall! That building looks 100 different but in a positive way. A good roof is worth every penny. We just switched to metal roofing on our shop at work from shingles, and that roof is gonna outlast the building

Get the 1066 with A/C you will injoy that.

Don't be afraid of a hydro Mr. Gino, they do things that a gear tractor doesn't do all that well, and with the limited amount of tillage do,,, well,,, , you have plenty of other equipment for that. That '66 is gorgeous 😍

How is your deployed son? Thank you and your son for serving! I am a retired AF shirt! Deo Gratias

That 1066 is absolutely gorgeous!!

I would pull the trigger on the international 1066 because I'm a die-hard 1066 fan of muscle tractor's

1066 all day longggg

The 1066 is outstanding looking 😊❤❤❤❤

I've owned a 1066 open station. 30 years never done anything to.it It is a horse love that tractor

That 1066 looks like a sweet ride!!

The barn looks great.

Very interesting. Thank you ❤

Barn looks good , tough decisions on those two tractors. Both are great but it’s all up to you big guy 🇺🇸

Excellent video Gino :) on three tractors hopefully get think what need in fleet and choice want really bad ! All three look sweet and nice 👌 too!

Thank you! Someone agrees, I also don’t like cabs on muscle tractors! My 1568 has the same cab as the 1066, which is rare out here. But! The 1066s are massive dollars over there now right? Can’t believe what a restored one is worth. But the 826 is a sweet machine! I have one I have to pay for and pick up when I’m ready. Two are better than one, but well sorted examples of any machine are special! Tough call.

I know you’re not a big fan of the cabs but I’ll tell yah I think that the IH cabs make those things look pretty tough.

The barn is looking awesome ! I got a couple of really old buildings I would like to cover in metal . That 1066 is pretty dang sharp . Good luck finding your tractor !!

Go with the 1066 you can't go wrong my brother has two 1066,s and two 1086,s the one my Dad bought new never had to do anything to very dependable good on fuel and the last time I talk to my brother the one my dad bought new has over 19000 hours and is still running like a champ and the other one is a loader tractor for round bails of hay and on loading things off the trucks with the pallet forks i would highly recommend the 1066 cuz I grew up driving them and washing and waxing it twice a week and then when the winter came around we would cover it up so it would not get dirty over winter and the inside of the cab was always spot less windows were alway sometimes we had to fight just to drive it we were very proud of that 1086 and my brother that took over the farm still has it so I go with the 1066 you will be very happy with it and you never go to mess around with the little ones again other than look at them as you drive your nice 1066 you ask your self what was i thinking plus you would look very cool driving it and you would be so happy and proud of your butieful 1066 good luck with your purchase and I hope you go for the 1066 have a blessed day God bless

Wow those are both nice. I have an 826 and love it only had it for 5 yrs now. Grease, oil, new batteries only thing I've done to it. After reading the comments I tend to agree that the 1066 may actually be a 966. The 6 bolt front wheels, the step up rear rims too 38's, I can not tell for sure in the video but the 3 point lift arms look lighter as would be on a 966. Both look awesome, just be sure. Thank you for the videos.

Tough choices, lol, looking forward to seeing what you choose, lol.

Get the 1066 its a beautiful tractor and you got get that turbo whistle when pulling in the field

Both look wonderful to have. I guess go with the one that is the hardest to find. Shed is awesome I would love to do that to my feed barn.

FF, I'm 100% in on that 1066. Never been around a cab one, but a neighbor has an open one and it is my favorite, for sure. I will admit that 826 is a neat machine, though.

Man, that was some horse power!

I hope you get the 1066! It looks identical to my grandpa’s 1975! I remember when it was delivered new! I was in first grade! First tractor on our farm with a factory cab with AC and a turbo!

826 and 1066 either way you cant lose... 450 farmall also sweet.... I was looking at a 3545 Sassy Massey Ferguson.... needed a clutch for 4600 if only had the cash It been mine... nice shed roof make some room there

Uncle had standing seam roof on his barn. Every eight to ten years we had people that would come in a truck and replace any popped nails in the steel and spray paint the roof with silver fiber paint. Guy would scamper around that roof tied to a rope like a squirrel. Back then they used nails with lead to seal the roof. Now they use screws with rubber washers on them. Good value on a shed edition like that.

Tough call Fanatic…I also prefer the no cab look and feel, but one can’t ignore the beauty and the beast that the 1066 obviously is… no matter which you choose, it will be a good choice. Good luck Fanatic!

Go with the cab

Saw that 826 for sale in Maryland. Also the second one is a 966 not a 1066. That would annoy me with the wrong decals.

Ha! You fooled me with the building LOL You definitely made the existing barn much more useable. I enjoy farm history- do you have a picture of the old barn? I would buy the tractors you always wanted :)

1066 would be a real horse. All the power you could ever want and enough weight to actually put it to the ground.

I would definitely take the 1066 it’s super nice

That 826 looks quite decent too...

I have a 786 German diesel (same engine with a different crankshaft as 826). If the 8 were a Gold Demonstrator I would go that direction. Since it is not, I recommend the 1066. That cab is nice . I have run a couple of 10s and I truly believe that model is the most reliable Farmall ever built

I’m a fan of 1066 tractors. But which tractor would you have to do the least amount of work to for the price?

I have been watching your program since April the fifth of 2020 I have never seen that shed😮,also what's up with the horses I seen for the first time tonight 🤔? I watch your program 99%of the time 😊

Back when I was a teenager I spent my summers on my friends family farm. They had an 826 gear drive that was one of the work horses of their farm. I mowed a lot of hay with that tractor.

I saw some ponies standing out there....When are the Herefords showing up? ya know their RED and WHITE....lol !066 is a great tractor and that one is sweet....Your money, you do what you feel is right...

You might get spoiled with the cab on the 1066.

Both are nice but all I'll say is you do you. You do what you feel like doing. It's in no power that should take you what you think which is right for you

826 is the way to go 9:35

That’s a hard decision. 1066 value is going up all the time. 826 are hard to come by. 450 would be a nice addition also. I’d be up in the air on it too. All comes down to your choice. Either wouldn’t be a bad choice.

I'd have to go with the 1066 as well. We had a 966 .As long as it's red you can't go wrong.

Get the 10, you’ll have to start shopping for bigger implements 😁

You have stated in a couple previous videos that you can afford to buy tractors...if that is the case I don't see any problem in buying a very nice 1066 AND also buying your dream 826

With that slope on the ground, looks like you could put a lean to extension next to your new overhang. (If you find the need for more!) Looks nice

We had an 826 from about 2000 until 2006, sold it when we bought a new CIH JX95. Should have kept the 826 and forgot about the JX95. It was a lemon.

Nice

Have a black stripe 1066 with factory cab. Had a 966 and a 1066 before with Year-A-Round cab. The IH factory cab is so much harder to get in and out and those steps are not easy for a guy that's getting older. Otherwise looks like the 1066 is a good tractor.

I’d go with the 826. It’s small enough for light work and heavy enough for tillage and heavier pto work. And if it’s something you’ve always wanted then that’s the obvious choice. Don’t get me wrong that 1066 is a beast but I’d take the 826. That cab even being in great shape is still a pain to get in and out of at least for me. 826 will handle 4’16s like a dream. Even pull a small chisel plow. And it can pull your existing equipment. Plus if you could buy the 826 and get a 450 why not. Can never have too many tractors 😆. Thanks for sharing 👍🏻

I agree could be 966 looks like 34 in wheel centers with step up rims in addition to the lighter looking front like already said

The 1066. I'm jealous

Good day FF Boy 4700 for that building was a good deal!

Just grab both of them!! You can’t go wrong!

That shed will help a lot. The 826 is essentially a 756 with a longer stroke. The gear drive ones are good. I like the 1066, but don't like the straight pipe. Mufflers really help. The 66 series deluxe cabs are good. The older cabs, not so much. I know this goes against the comments of others, but I would go with the 826.

Now you can get all of your tractors out of the weather lean-to for the smalls and red shade for the big ones

I put mini one wire alterntor on the 606 and it works ,but I had to add an excite wire to make it charge. If I leave the excite wire conected when not running alternator gets warm and probally discharge batt. I havent put the 2001 loader back on yet.

The 1066is the one it's beautyful

I'm really glad the missile is back💪🏼❤Red Power

I’d go with the 826, because I too dream of owning one. I’m also biased towards them and the 56’s grew up on them and love them. Currently own a 1456 and two 544’s. The 1066 is nice but they’re a dime a dozen imo.

Lean-tos are a great way to go. I built my garage to accept them on each side. Probably won't happen due to my health

1066 is gorgeous

The 1066 has narrow fenders, I'd go with the 826... although the cab would be nice as you get older.

We have an IH 826 gear drive sitting in our barn that my grandfather bought brand new and it hasn't left the family and never will

I like that 826 good tractor😊 its probably a decent machine🤔🤔

I have a 826 and love it. you can work it all day on less than a tank of fuel

Just buy both lol I’m a 1066 guy but that 826 is a sweet tractor all the ones I ever seen in my area had narrow fronts a local farmer years ago had a pair of them made your mouth water lol

The 1066 is a looker and sounds mechanically sound.

Ugh the decision is so hard but imma have to lean towards the 1066. A clean 1066 like that pulling 5-16s and a good set of discs the sounds they make the raw horsepower how could pass that up. Then you can budget for a 1026 at a later date

You should get it sharp 1066

Nice looking 826 i think i would lean toward that its alot like your 756 from t/a back so your already familiar with that. 1066 is nice to and i am sure alot more expensive unless you plan on buying a whole mew line of equipment to use with the 1066 i would definitely go with 826 for now.

I would go with the 1066, you would have a nice reliable big horse to work with. The cabs when done up right arent too bad, especially when the seasons start to change. You wont regret it. You might not find a 66 in that good of shape again for the price, and they hold their value well. It is hard to choose between the 826, and 1066, but you could get an 826 or 856 later on.

Good video as always if it were me the 1066 but I am not you.

1066 all day every day. I'm a deere guy but they had it right with the 66 series

That overhang should give you some more storage space for your red toys...

The 6 bolt fronts on the 1066 makes me wonder if it's actually a 1066.

My opinion, id go for the 826 because of the rarity factor, but that is a beautiful 1066, im also not a cab guy

I say go for the 826 and then go for the 1066 in a year or so

You should go with the 715 CaseIH quadatrac!

826 IS THE NO BRAINER!! Ok, my opinion. But It was a our big tractor and pulled a 4-5 bottom plow!!

If that’s what you want way not go for it? Redpower Baby!!!!

🎉

In cold weather, a cab is nice.

Buy both of them you only live once if you have take loan for a little bit full fill your dream sometimes life is short so enjoy it

Your next tractor should be a 1066 without a cab

I like the cab,,, square time period correct at least to me Your money buy what you like You have money from what you saved not putting up a new building 🤔🤔🤔🤔

go with the 826

826. that your dream
