I posted a few weeks back asking what kind of price range this thing would be in , and everybody wanted pictures and to know more about it. I am not well versed in anything international, and that's why I'm coming here to you guys that are.
I've got what I found out to be a 1975 international 966 with a Coleman manual front wheel assist 4 wheel drive axle. I've seen in one of the Tractor Sales places when you try to post them four wheel drive they ask four wheel drive or manual front wheel assist , and I don't know what the difference is . That would be one thing that would be helpful. This tractor was originally purchased by international dealer in Glenwood Arkansas , and that is who sold it to my dad. It was sold with a fresh rebuild on the motor, and my dad died in 2006 , so he used it for 6 years, 3 weeks every 10 months. That's because he only used it to pull the litter wagon to unload his laying houses. He had stuck a spreader truck and couldn't get it out for a few months the year before and got this monster to pull the wagon through anything. After my father died some family used it and put a stick or something through the radiator and ruined the radiator. Thankfully they killed it and never overheat the thing. I had to get it out of the pasture where they killed it. It has been sitting for years now in the weather and looks like it. The tires will need replaced . The front ones don't hold air long, and the back ones are full of tread but dry rotted. I have all the metal that's not in the pictures , as well as the top. The top had square tubing welded inside it so you can slide it right back down in there. Hell they may come from the factory that way, I don't know. I cranked the thing to make sure it would run, and that's when I remember that I haven't checked the fuel tank for trash moisture or anything , and the damn thing tried to run away and I bled the injectors to kill it immediately. I've since been told I should have thrown something over the air intake to kill it that way, but i've not had one run away previously. I'm just glad I had a wrench in my hand, because I was figuring I was going to have to bleed the injectors anyway. You guys tell me what you think and tell me what other information is needed . I don't have the hours, and I'm not sure the hour meter worked, as I have not run this tractor myself. I'll get the hours off of it tomorrow.
