Some Vintage Iron

By: Russ Quinn

While I didn’t grow up with “red” tractors, we had enough family, friends and neighbors who did, so I was around International tractors even though we didn’t have any. I had several friends growing up whose families farmed with IH equipment, and I learned about this equipment from them.

I am fairly familiar with the Farmall H/M and the 460/560 series, as I knew several folks with these series of IH tractors. In between these two, were two other series — the super and the hundred series — but I didn’t really know much about them, since no one I knew personally had these tractors.
