A friend called me and said his neighbor has a 70s Farmall 710 tractor he wants to get rid of. I know the line pretty well and argued with him for 10 minutes that there is no such tractor. Any help would be appreciated on this model.

I believe you to be right. I have never heard of or read anything about a 710 Farmall tractor. If it is a 710, you can bet your hiney it is rare.

Rule #1 of tractor collecting: If it's free, you take it.

Same things I said, but the guy said it is a Farmall, saw the logos, it's red, narrow front, the whole works. Guess I will just go see. He did say the neighbor guy said it was some rare kind and there were only about 100 produced. He wants to give it away to get it out of his barn, so I will make the hour drive, but I can't see how this could be the case.

I worked for IHC Advertising during the 706-806 Era and I guarantee that any tractor Preproduction for tests Etc. was cut up and never was allowed to enter the Domestic Market. There was not a series such as mentioned. Testing was done at IHC FEREC Center at County Line Rd. and Rt. 66 Hinsdale ILL. Some in Arizona and MISS. and other States. All Preproduction Tractors were returned to Farmall Works,Rock Island ILL. for Scrapping after testing was complete. The only Tractor to my knowledge to make it beyond the test period and to survive to this day and there were two of them were the Turbine Tractors based upon the International 340 Chassis and one of them is in the Smithsonian Museum now. I have some experience with that Tractor but I will not go there now. The most memorable Tractor from that period for me was the IHC 1206,which I thought would be the Life Saver for IHC after the miserable years of the 460-560-660 but it was not to be. I still think the 1206 is a pretty classy Tractor.
