There's a classified ad in our local paper of a group of IHC tractors for sale. Included with the SMTAD, SMTA Gas, White C demo, etc there is a "IHC W6 Crawler, gas, with full hydraulic factory dozer, very rare, 5500.00". I haven't been able to connect with the seller by phone yet. But, my question would be...Was there a true W6 Crawler, and if so, do they bring this kind of money? Thank you.

There was also a TD-6 made (diesel engine) and it is probably greater in number than a T-6. Of course "very rare" is undefineable in numbers and only the numbers mean anything.

I agree with Joe. It's probably a T6 crawler - essentially a W6 / M wheel tractor engine in a crawler.

From what I can find, I believe there was no true W-6 crawler. IHC was pretty good at sticking to their model naming convention in those days by tagging the equivalent crawler models of the W series with a 'T' prefix which would be a T-6 in this case. There was no W-6 crawler tested at Nebraska. Maybe someone stuck a W-6 decaled hood on the crawler you are interested in.

W6 HUH! IN THE 1940 ERA THERE WAS A W-6 TRACTOR ON STEEL WHEELS (RUBBER GOING TO WIN WWII). LIKE OTHERS HAVE SAID THIS MAY HAVE BEEN AN EARLY MODEL T6 DOZER. MIGHT BE WORTH 5000 IF IT WAS IN DECENT SHAPE AND IT MET YOUR NEEDS. THE TD6 APPEARING IN AND AROUND 1953 WITH A DIESEL ENGINE WAS A VERY DESIRABLE TRACTION EARTH MOVING BEAST.
IHC HAS A FULL RANGE (DARN NEAR AN ENCYCLOPEDIA)
OF ALL TRACTORS, DOZERS, IMPLEMENTS AND EQUIPMENT
IN BOOK FORM ACROSS THE LARGEST SPAN OF YEARS THAT THEY MANUFACTURED ALL THESE WONDERFUL GIZMOS.
YOU COULD ASK THE BARNES AND NOBLES STAFF TO DO A BOOK SEARCH UNDER INTERNATIONAL HARVESTOR COMPANY. I AM SURE THIS VOLUME IS OUT OF PRINT AND I ONLY KNOW OF ONE PRIVATE COPY IN ROCHESTER, NH. IF SOMEONE DOESN'T SOLVE YOUR PUZZLE LET ME KNOW AND I WILL BUG THE ELDERLY GENTLEMAN TO SCOPE OUT THIS W-6/T6 MYSTERY.
