They were all row crop. Somewhere narrow front which means they have two tires right up front for a tight turning radius. There original price in 1967 was 6,800 dollars. This could have changes depending on the features you got. You could get a cab. These cabs were built by another company and were called “Ice Cream Box” cabs. They were white and square. Some had heaters and had one back window and a side window. Most came with 38 inch tires, but some came with 34 inch tires. International harvester marketing technique was that the tractor was large enough to do tillage but cheaper to buy and run than the next size up the 1206. The diesel was good on fuel with max pulling it would use 6.4 gallons and hour while the gas less efferent using 7.4 gallons per …show more content…

The 806 had the hydronic levers on the side and the three point behind the seat. The 4020 was easier to operate with all your controls near you. As one can see the 806 and the 4020 are very similar. They were both produced around the same time and were about the same time. They are both highly respected tractors and are used widely on small and larger operations today. I like the 806 better because I have grown up with them and know them. Also I believe international motors are better. Many people put turbo kits on there and cranked them up close to 110-120 hp without damaging the motor. The argument between international guys and Deere guys will never stop about the 806 and the
