Eason

My wife suggested I color my hair years ago. I told her I earned every one of those grey hairs!

My first car was a ugly green 71 gremlin, 199 ci six with a 3 on the tree. It sure beat walking!!

Mark I have to agree with you. Your granddaughter is a natural beauty and needs nothing to improve or take away from her good looks. Remember there's going to be a lot of old ugly women with tattoos 40 years from now!!

Paul I gave $2200 for it. It was above average.

You would need the flywheel for the diesel

Paul I'm doing just what you are talking about. I took a ROPS off of a 1086 and bought a cab off of a 2+2 and installing it on the 1086. The wiring is what I'm concerned about.

Here's an Ansel kit on a 786 https://www.tractorhouse.com/listings/farm-equipment/for-sale/31763351/1981-international-786

I'm the same way. That and the R series were the trucks I remember in the 60's

NICE collection. That Fleetstar 2000 is awesome!!

That looks like the ansel add on cab. The IH windbreaker windows were vinyl like a soft top for a scout or jeep.

The tri-stripe 886 came out about the same time as the 786. The 886 had a 358 german upped to 90 hp, the 786 had a 358 @ 80 hp. The 786 was in response to the 2840 Deere and 7700 ford. The 686 chassis had been maxed out for reliability at 70 hp.

According to Ken Updike's little book, FF is 4.5 gpm pump

I've swaped a 407 from a TD15 to a 1026 but it's a totally different animal.

No hi crop decals on a 686 or Hydro 86.

The 404 replaced the 240, the 504 replaced the 340 in 1961. The 460 and 560 were built until 1963. The 606 replaced the 460 utility around 1963. The 706 and 806 were new models for 1963. The 1206 and 656 Farmall started in 1965. The 606 was joined by the 656 International (utility) in 1966.

These ran until 1971 with the exception of the 544 and International 656(utility) which ran until 1973. The 454 and 574 were introduced in late 1970 as part of the world wide series of tractors. The 454 was replaced by the 464 in 1973. The 664 (1972-73) was a fill in until the 674 (late 1973)could be built.
