I love my 7710, it is a 1986 model year made in Basildon England. My Uncle had a 6610, 7710, and an 8210 all bought from Sid Kuhn back when Bill was running the place.
The common problem with those blocks was electrolysis corrosion in the water jacket eating through the cylinder wall. I went down that road to with my 7700.
That 7710 is one tough SOB 👌🏻. That tractor has a lot of “character” lol. I never realized the 7710s were turbo charged. Now it needs a straight pipe so we can hear the turbo and people can stop complaining ab the bent muffler 😂.
It was bought to work not go to parades. 🤣🤣 6610 uses the same motor not turboed and you straddle the transmission. 7610 is the same motor turboed like the 7710 and you straddle the transmission like the 6610. The 7710 platform would have a flat deck without the cab. I've ran it without a muffler and it is way louder but you can't hear any turbo whistle.
Awesome machine! It's nice to have a history with a tractor.

Biggest mistake was turning it over to Mark.
What took decades for Sid, Bill, and Don to build he ruined in just a few years.
@Mad_Farmer912 I knew him in high school, he was a tool.
Mike is a great dude...good at what he does
Even came to do it on a Sunday. I told him whenever, it wasn't a rush so whenever it would work for him.

Ford made great tractors. They get overlooked too often very reliable

Great video. Enjoyed it. Thank you
Glad you enjoyed it
A damn fine purchase.
Definitely no regrets
The air conditioning would not be that much to fix. My tw20 will freeze you out.
You would probably have to find lines from a aftermarket or have someone make them. I'm sure they're obsolete from New Holland .
@@Mad_Farmer912 Ap air has all the parts for tractor air conditioning
Air conditioning will cost at least a thousand dollars they are not cheap to fix like a person commented on here
I fix them all the time. It would be under $1000. What’s it worth to your guess. All my old tractor has really good air conditioning
Compressors aren't to bad, $200-400 depending where you get them. Hose would be the issue. I'm sure they're obsolete from NH.
