Family Has A Fleet Of International Harvester Golden Demonstrators! - International 1026 Hi Clear

[@jeffcanyafixiy]

I don't own tractors, don't farm but I love machines and live in a farming community. These collections are just GREAT!! Part of American history. 🇺🇸🇺🇸

I ran an 856 hydro gold in 1972 an a few years later for a farmer in Idaho. He bought it to run a JD sugar beet thinner. we did all of his acers and did custom work as well. We would mount a loader on front and it was a sweet loader tractor with the hydro transmission. Really liked that tractor!

[@bobhirdes6725]

My Grandfather bought a 1026 Gold Demonstrator in 1970 and was one of only 2 in the state of Michigan at that time. The 1026 International Hydro was absolutely my favorite tractor. My Dad took it to many tractor pulls and beat many bigger horsepower tractors. In it's day the 1026 Hydro was a amazing tractor. Very smooth and great to drive!

[@donplautz9788]

What a truly great IH collection, thank you so much for sharing, may God bless y'all 🚜

[@travk8545]

Never knew these were so rare. Got one on our farm, assuming my grandpa bought it new. Has a IH cab on it, thinking must have been installed later since it partially covers the demonstrator sticker. They definitely used it on our farm has 8843 hrs. Hydro was awesome just a little noisy with the tin box on it.

[@couchrider6228]

I’ve got a 484 almost as clean as y’all’s tractors. IH truly built their equipment to last . It’s a shame they lost their way. I’ve had this 484 37 years now and I’m keeping it , I know y’all are too. Enjoyed seeing your collection.

[@turbo5488]

I'm proud of those international tractor's

[@Military-Museum-LP]

I've never seen a 1026 high clear and didn't know they existed! I was at our local dealership when the gold demonstration tractors were presented. Had a neighbour who got the 826 with what they called the German diesel. Lots of problems. Thanks

[@SchnelleKat]

Everone I talk to say the German Diesels are wonderful. Besides a different way than normal for starting the engines.

[@mrmillepattes626]

Very beautiful tractors collection! Sincerly congratulations from Switzerland for share this vidéo! ;-)

[@randallrougeau530]

I’ve got an uncle with a 1456 demo with the wide fenders and tires and the headlights are round 6 inch singles mounted in front of the shift controls on each side of the hood. I haven’t seen another one like it anywhere in all the literature and videos if seem. Still gold under the hood top faded pretty much. I still remember the day he brought it to the farm.

[@hankelrod7315]

I have a 1026 that still gets used about every day green chopping & running augers, wish they still built them that way.

[@toddjacobs5660]

Those are some very nice tractors 👍

[@timothymcmurtrie5277]

Nice collection......some coin sitting on that farm......love em all!!

[@deanbarr5740]

Beautiful Tractor

[@danharold3087]

Dad had a 706 demonstrator. IH Built it with a larger engine than used on production units. But they must have kept the regular radiator Because it would overheat if worked hard.

[@bigcharliesmodelgarage296]

Awesome collection guys thanks for sharing

[@johnnyh1965]

Those New York boys knew their stuff, but they forgot to mention the fact that every 826 and 1026 technically had a German international diesel on it!

[@troymartin2008]

I've got an 826 hydro diesel gold..used it on a trencher...great tractor

[@rupertmcnaughtdavis3649]

"they both have a case of Gold Fever " Case being the operative word! Geddit?

[@ihus9950]

Very nice collection 👍

[@tedwpx123]

Nice video

[@MustangsTrainsMowers]

My family’s farm had an 826 Hydro Demonstrator among other Farmall and IH tractors. The farm was sold in 1981. Besides the Super C which has been kept in the family, I wonder if any of them are still running?

[@MustangsTrainsMowers]

I remember some time in the 70’s we had the hood and fenders painted red.

[@MustangsTrainsMowers]

I keep remembering more things. The odd thing of that tractor being a Hydrostatic is that it also had a clutch.

[@charleshogan]

I like the collection I farmed in south Alabama on peanut farm in my younger days but we was John deere all the way I was a work hand not a farm owner meaning I turned wrenches on a lot green machines we would take on all the old farmers land when thy retired from farming around us one of the old farmers got me to help him replace a starter and a set of batteries on a red 666 international tractor i know them number s scared a lot of people but I got to use it from then on here and there it was one of the nicest handling tractor's I've ever been on it got away from me after my friend passed away he promised it to one of his family I've always wanted one of them I've only seen one more 666 and I think it was a gas burner my friends was a diesel I want to say it was none turbo if I remember right I just wonder if you have ever came across one of them around your area

[@gocubsgo7609]

I'm from Dothan, Alabama. We used Massey Ferguson and we had a Ford. We sold the Massey for Case IH.

[@scotcoon1186]

The 666 is the same tractor as the 656 and 686 with few changes.

[@P61guy61]

Are southern tractors really rougher than others?

[@SchnelleKat]

Super neat

[@CoalChrome]

I counted atleast 5

[@fritzbushwacker7098]

I wonder where they got all them nos ih filters I'd like to get a set or two maybe there's a outfit that prints the labels anyone out there that can give info I'd appreciate it

[@melchristian3638]

Good morning

[@CoalChrome]

I need one

[@jeffkreuziger1984]

nice

[@CoalChrome]

If y'all ever do one about a Mahindra 5500 (not exactly a classic, but a neat tractor) call us XD. FYI, the Mahindra 5500 is (in a way) an IH descendant, in the 60s IH gave Mahindra some patents so they could make an IH tractor without all of the IH stuff (powershift, cab, syncronised transmission), with the exchange of a piece of the Mahindra red (suspiciously close to IH red) pie.

[@krishanbasotiya3867]

What is price,and menufectur country

[@dontbeled]

1206 ... nothing more to say.

[@daddio7249]

My dad had a 706 and a 504, very clunky. Then he got John Deere 3020s, like driving a sports car. I still have a 1971 3020.

[@scotcoon1186]

Update the 706 to the 56 series shifting, and you'll sing a new song. Grandpa had a 4020 on order when he drove the 756. Took it home and cancelled the order on the 4020. While the 4020 is a superior chore/auger tractor to anything build in the sound guard era, I'd take a 56 or 66 series International any day.

[@jeanmarcrose8288]

C'est fantastique ces tracteur bravo

[@timothymcmurtrie5277]

Thats awsome.....never thought of that....lol.....totally a Tony stark tractor.....awsome comment!!

[@codyadgent8428]

These guys don’t bother to thank the equipment dealer in Tennessee that drug that 1026 gold demo out of the southern Louisiana briar patch during an ice storm then spent a year chasing down the original parts before it was offered to them. If it wasn’t for me, this tractor would have become scrap, they would not have had a chance to buy it & they would not had gotten in contact with the original owner. It’s ungrateful people that burn your ass.

[@piercismpropagandanetwork9846]

Wish I knew a dealer as dedicated as you certainly does not a sound like a easy task locating one of these tractors. What’s the name of your dealership I’d like to see what you’ve got. Thank you for saving this piece of history from the scrapyard and I’m sorry you didn’t get the recognition you deserve.
