Nice job! That's gonna be something to pass on to your kids for sure! Makes me want to finish the 4020 in my profile picture. It hasn't has sheet metal since we rebuilt the engine back in 09 haha its all been sitting primed in the garage for years. I've always loved the look of the narrow fronts. I'll have to get a 4020 one someday after seeing this all shined up. Congrats on the marriage!

That looks good! We farm with a 3010 nf. I want a 4010/4020 just like that for the extra power.

.......I see a turbo in tractors future?

Thanks! Mine dynoed 103hp before the new pump. I'm curious what she will do now. If definitely love to turbo it, although I'm almost afraid to tear it apart and scratch it! I've pulled 9k farmstock a few times so the turbo would really benefit me.

Looks exactly like a tractor I pull against. Curve out stack and everything. Only difference is the one that pulls is a gas jobby
 
So on the 4010 does it have the hidden third reverse in the 4-7 range, a 68' 4020 did that I cut my teeth on.

I think all of the synchro range transmissions have the 3rd reverse. At least all of the ones I have been on did.
 
Supposedly they have a fourth reverse also. I've never messed with either of our synchro shifts to get into r4 but our one power shift has r1-4

I just happened on to it as a young teen in the last 70's, no telling what I was up to then.....probably something stupid!

Lol, I think it was the late 70s when dad bought his 1968 3020d. That was one of the tractors I grew up on. He still has it today.

If my old memory serves me correctly reverse gear is like the forward in MPH, 1st is 3rd, 2nd is 5th and mystery is 7th. He traded the 4020 off in 1979....showing my age I know!

Haha you got to spend time on that tractor when it was close to new! I would have loved to see them on dealers lots.
 
Nice restoration! The 4010 looks great, but I really want the 12 or 1456 in the background of that one pic lol

Thanks! It's a 1256, buddy of mine pulls it in farmstock classes around SW Ohio. I have some better pics of it, I'll have to post them.
