As far as buyouts go, there was only one big one in IH's history, and that was the Case-IH deal in 1985. Over the years, IH put many different names on it's tractors like McCormick, Farmall, or International, but they were all built by the same company. The different name usally had something to do with the type of tractor, Farmalls were row-crop tractors, early standard tractors were McCormicks, later standard tractors were Internationals, and by the late 1970's, they were all Internationals. You are exactly right about the standard tractors being just "pullers", especially the Wheatlands. They were meant for the wheat farms out west where the tractor's main jobs were to do tillage and pull the grain drill. These tractors are quite uncommon here in corn country, where a row-crop tractor is 100% nessacary. The gas-start diesel engine was somthing that only the older IH tractors had.
