  1. Yes some please post, and tell if they think 466 would go into a Magnum 7000, 8900 series.
  2. Obviously, no compete clauses are very common in all sorts of businesses
  3. What a steel 430 Million for IH! .....why did Tenneco get out anyway.....wonder how much $ they made on the sale.....
  4. Interesting thought about a non compete......I doubt it tho....but possible.....IH could have made it a true joint venture and kept some ownership and kept their engines and maybe moved JI Case and Farmall production to one factory and made both....but it was too late....mis management was beyond repair at that time.....if they would have been out of money before JI Case was in 1969 then Tenneco would have made Case the 2nd purchase and IH would have lived on in farm equipment.
  5. Yes, Ustain would have tried to put a Maxxforce in tractor lol.....
  6. True they had the Cummins engine joint venture already, but Navistar would have made the engine for them, it would have been a great compliment to IH. Navistar made the 466 for the combines for a couple years, until maybe 1987-89....Navistar had the history from IH of reliable Diesel engines.....they were already selling them to ford.....that would have been amazing.....that should have been in the negotiations when the sale went through.....?
  7. So it looks like on this tractor under the cab controls it’s still the same STS transmission.? I love the pics and the controls....but how do you know if the frame you have is special if under the cab it’s all the same?
  8. So is this an original that was found....or is he making one
  9. Please explain more....what is going on here....
  10. 401 N Michigan Ave was the corporate address for IHC for years....that’s why the name. I’m in Wisconsin...
  11. Hey thanks for the info. We had it running.....but haven had time to get back to it....
  12. Thanks Howard. I’m beginning to wonder how rare this truck May be....we had it started yesterday after 20years sitting....it’s gona need lots of TLC..... this truck was purchased new by a IH farm equipment dealer in Iowa, we are the second owners....
  13. I cannot find any production numbers on trucks with the DV 800....I can’t find any pictures of one online or anyone who has one .....anyone know of a live or dead one? Production numbers?
  14. It’s going to need some work...but it’s home....
  15. My brother just bought a 1975 4070B with DV 800 IH engine...I can’t find much info on this engine in a truck....does anyone know the rarity or value of a semi with this engine ?
