Some time ago there was an article in Farm Show magazine that mentioned that IH might reproduce the H and maybe a couple other tractors from the Farmall line. I called a couple dealers this morning and asked about it and they acted like I was from Mars - they didn't know a thing about it.
Anyone heard of this before or have any info?
Thanks,
Steve

Doesn't Mahindra still make a tractor based on an old IH design?

I saw one at a farm show about 2 years ago and it was pretty neat.

Stuck out like a sore thumb from the new style stuff but it was cool none the less.

It was a 25-35 hp tractor if I remember correctly...

Mahindra possible making B250 and B414 IHC copies. Article notes they were licensed by IHC to make tractors in IHC factory sold them in midd 80's when IHC sold various farm equipment factories when facing bankruptcy. Mahindra previously some sort of partner to IHC- Government regulations required Indian presence in company. Spare parts from Mahindra sold in U.S. as manufactured under old IHC license and patents-have IHC parts crossreference numbers. Archives note good metal quality, direct replacement fit, sometimes minor finish or paint lesser quality.

Steve,

The article you referenced was an April Fool's joke on the site. It was very well done and I, like most, had a great chuckle out of it. I wish I may have saved the article but I bet it will surface again in a few months regardless. It is a grand idea to reproduce them though but then you cannot best an original in this case. If I can dig it up, I will copy it on the site.

There was a post around April 1 on this board purporting this, and was weel received by all.

Of course to produce a tractor of the weight and horsepower of an H or M in this day and age would be prohibitively expensive. Equipment is built by the pound. How much horsepower do you get these days in a 5,500# tractor?

There would also be emissions and safety issues.

And they wuld have to have a three point hitch, lights, flashers, etc.

If you could fish that article out for me or at least send me the date of the magazine, I would love to read that. I haven't heard anything like that. :( ??? It sure would be something else. Thanks for the interesting post.

That's a myth.
