1086 International time lapse restoration

[@dougleighty2798]

First tractor my grandfather ever taught me to drive! Will always have a beautiful place in my heart! Wonderful job!

[@cj9072]

Nice work! I love the 86 Series tractors. As a teenager in the late 70's I swathed with a 186 Hydro and did fall tillage with a 1586. Both tractors were very easy to operate. Again, nice restoration! All the best!

[@thomasstanton5170]

Thanks 👍

[@larsassinck3868]

One of world's most beautiful tractors. The restoration makes it all complete

[@matthewnasci2646]

You dont have to be an international fan to recognize how pretty that tractor is. Love the sound of a straight pipe.

[@Redneckmfg]

Take her back to the Dealer - She's Factory !!!!! That turned out Beautiful.. And your Edits are on point... the way you recorded almost the entire process was very well done ! Good Job all the way around...

[@carlleroy5952]

Loved working on these was a mechanic at a dealer great job brought back good memories

[@brianbailey645]

That’s awesome, I grew up driving a 1486. We couldn’t keep the transmission going, but she was a good tractor to drive. Thanks for sharing your video.

[@anthonylentini6278]

I'm not a red man but you did a hell of a job just perfect

[@EDBZ28]

Absolutely gorgeous. Oh my gosh...the WORK, THE WORK! Love the rain-cap style chrome stack too.

[@garykostiw8886]

Nice you did an excellent job !!!

[@levi-316]

Nice job! Happy to see a 1086 restored like this. That's a sharp tractor.

[@wheeler391970]

Awesome tractor! I love the 86 series!!

[@stricklandfarms9123]

I just pulled a 1086 out of the woods yesterday. I can’t wait to restore it.

[@MrCharger70rt]

1086. My favorite since I was a kid

[@sidekick9409]

I like the way you took everything apart and cleaned up everything

[@Erik_MN]

Wow great job! My grandpa had one of these and I recall him taking me with him out to the field in it! Great tractor!

[@stepitupmorons8704]

[@jonlindner8022]

Wow 👍

[@chipps1066]

You looked like you could have worked at Farmall back in the day,Outstanding job and product!!

[@LtColDaddy71]

That’s beautiful beyond belief.

[@huntingandstuff9489]

Looks great. I've never seen a cab tore apart so much

[@briangarner2000]

Wow! Really nice job you did. I’m in the process of doing mine now

[@clembuck5885]

[@sarge3ad]

Beautiful restoration! Beautiful Tractor!

[@audieclark3088]

Awesome job guys. Looks new again.

[@petrstuntbiker885]

Perfect work ,Nice tractor 👌💪🤓✌️

[@arthurkkk749]

Nice work !!!!!

[@Vance_Nickerson]

Mine is next! Looks awesome.

[@kennethstanton5407]

Impressive indeed. I spent a ton of hours in 66 and 86 series tractors. A LOT of hours in a 1468 (does that get included in the 66 series? lol. )

[@timberhills1778]

New mirrors are a nice touch

[@deerejohn1681]

Wow! Fantastic work!

[@microsoilenhancersinspirey5750]

I’m curious if it’s for sale?...my daddy bought 2 of them brand new in either 78 or 79... I remember when they pulled up on the truck...2 of them on a drop deck! Coolest thing I had seen before!!! I had a sheltered life pretty far off the road..😂

[@vern146]

seeing inters new delivered is timeless no one can ever take that away.

[@hallsweldingservice]

So good. Nice work.

[@williame.portman4026]

Beautiful job, would you do 1486 😊???

[@matthewwilliamson320]

You Guys rock that is beautiful

[@mattdanger-ny]

Great job on this, the paintwork and detail looks great. Do you have a gallery of the pictures anywhere?

[@oldtimefarmer3405]

Excellent 👍😁

[@markvittorini5497]

You're very meticulous, fun to watch the whole resto at once!

[@KenworthK100]

Awesome, good job

[@66limelight]

For it's time the 86 series tractors were awesome. A HUGE upgrade from the previous 66 series. However they lacked a syncho transmission and the doors should have opened the other way. My dad bought a new 1086 in 1979 and we kept it on the farm until about the mid 90s. It had over 9000 hours on it and we never touched the engine and had no other serious repairs on it. Is that a tilt steering wheel in that cab taken from a 50 series tractor?

[@guyhulscher6857]

Beautiful

[@taylorclontz3875]

Right on brother. Unbelievable job

[@nonickname6985]

Great job!! What would u charge to do another!?!

[@thomasstanton5170]

Its hard to put a number on a job this extensive. We put over 400 hrs of labor into the build alone. I would have to charge around $20k roughly.

[@alasfar62]

Good work

[@redpower1086]

This is awesome. It looks better than new!! Our 1979 Red Power 1086 needs restoration. Thanks for video

[@MartinP1214]

Just amazing!

[@D0MINAT0I0N]

Amazing job

[@Thuongnguyen-od1ru]

Very good 👍

[@martingardener90]

Not fussed on the mirrors although obviously very practical but the rest of the restoration is fantastic. Restoring my MF165 at the moment - hope it turns out as well as this!

[@brunocharles3179]

Today in France these mirrors are essential. Very good looking and efficient

[@ghorner11]

Looks great. Only thing wrong is the front rims should be red.

[@thomasstanton5170]

From factory they were red but in our opinion those tractors look better with silver rims to match the back rims. We also painted the front pillar posts black rather than white for similar reasons

[@CheeseMiser]

@@thomasstanton5170 agreed.

[@mneng9771]

I like the mirrors. Did you have to weld the ROPS to make the mirrors work? Or was it welded to another part? Can you please clarify the part numbers used for the mirrors and brackets. Great rebuild.

[@thomasstanton5170]

The mirrors are from K and M manufacturing, we made custom brackets that are welded to the top of the front posts

[@jordanbeardy8798]

Looks nice that’s the kind of tractor i want to buy 👍

[@MrJohndeere3720]

looks great :) i hope to do the same to my 1586 :)

[@timberhills1778]

Awesome

[@jefflarson2717]

Wow. Well done. This was a good series. Well... I got some ideas from watching this. Who did you buy your cab replacement kit from ?

[@couchrider6228]

I’ve got one like it. That ol girl will pay you back 10 times over. Exactly what she needed.

[@millardhayes1884]

It's super nice. How many months did this take to do it.

[@thomasstanton5170]

3

[@CheeseMiser]

Fun fact about the IH 1486. The rear wheels diameter is larger than the hood length

[@mountainfarmersa887]

Wow, just wow. So cool

[@Joey966]

Nice!

[@TheSlim93gt]

Excellent work! What brand/ type of paint did you use?

[@thomasstanton5170]

CRE primer and delfleet essentials single stage polyurethane base coat

[@brunocharles3179]

Remarkable Job How many hours spent on this tractor???

[@kellystanton2854]

Over 400 hrs on the restoration.

[@jshbryan]

Did you make the mirror brackets or did they come with the mirrors?

[@thomasstanton5170]

We made them, and welded them directly to the frame of the cab, similar to the boxcar magnums.

[@thomashanke6750]

I have a ‘77 886 with just the ROPS Kit. Been trying to find a white top sheet metal roof piece. It’s all one piece instead of having the cutout for the heat/ac cover. Any ideas?

[@thomasstanton5170]

Mike links from triple r tractor might be able to help you out with new sheet metal. Justin Red Nalle might be able to source a clean used roof skin for you also. He helped us out sourceing most of our replacement used parts for the build

[@mauriziocastellari6121]

Molto bravi !,

[@twowildoutdoors9443]

Are you doing restoration work, I have a 1086 looking at getting done?

[@thomasstanton5170]

I am getting set up to take on more restorations. I have 1 or 2 boxcar magnums scheduled for restorations this coming spring and will post videos on them.

[@LtColDaddy71]

I’d love to know how much that cost, and be able to compare it to the price of a new 100-125 horse tractor.

[@olek3799]

Is the restortion for use or sail😊its a beuti better then new💪

[@thomasstanton5170]

For use, not for sale

[@johnhyde111]

Sweet

[@jimwhite1061]

Your 1086 looks great. You put alot of effort and hours into it but, I didn't see you touch the motor, Trans or clutch. Did you tear it down that far and didn't freshen those things up? She looked to have quite a few hours on her before resto.. paint will only get you so far. Sorry for being a wet blanket.

[@PapaSanDoc]

For future reference…How much to bring back an IH 1066?

[@nowyouknowjack7956]

The tractor looks great. Do you perform restoration work for customers ? I have a IH 1486 in need of restoration.

[@thomasstanton5170]

Not yet, but hopefully in the future.

[@CheeseMiser]

We have a beautiful original 1486. And another original thats been sitting outside where it died.

[@Buzzbox3rd]

Love it !!!!!!!!!!!!

[@chasehofmann5229]

Man i would love to do this

[@georgejoyner7369]

I have a 686. Would you restore mine??????

[@thomasstanton5170]

I’d love to, but at the moment I don’t have the time or setup to do more restorations. Hopefully in the ear future I will be able to

[@nelsonmatamala8760]

Espestacular👏👍

[@craigroberts8961]

Is this for sale?

[@thomasstanton5170]

No, it is not for sale

[@egraham9049]

What year

[@thomasstanton5170]

77'

[@merlepatterson]

Mint

[@sheepfarmerman]

Others then they got the paint wrong on parts of the can it looks great

[@thomasstanton5170]

The black pillar posts and black interior was intentional. We think these tractors look better without the white posts and an all black interior is much cleaner looking. The black post will hopefully hide scratch more than the white also

[@BlakesTrainsandMore4014]

How long did this take you to restore?

[@mattlf9120]

About 10 minutes.

[@thomasstanton5170]

Hard to say, approximately 400+ hours went into the project

[@tractorhellas5297]

👌👍✊👏👏

[@austinfuller1739]

Good job

[@ihus9950]

👍🏻

[@cagrowin1962]

I have the matching 6 row planter for this Era of ih tractor

[@snowman5609]

Not a total restoration because they didn’t come with silver wheels on the front there supposed to be red.

[@thomasstanton5170]

Silver rims on the front look better, same with the black pillar posts, IH made both of these changes when they went to the 88 series. It’s all about individual preference.
