Good morning. My neighbor purchased this International tractor in the Buffalo, NY area. However, he does not know the model to then purchase the manual/parts/etc. I personally do not know anything about mechanics/tractors/etc, but I said I’d help him find out via the web. After some searching on the web, we think it’s a late 1950’s model. We are hoping that you may be able to give us some insight. Unfortunately, the identification numbers have rusted away. Since I can not post pictures via this forum, please do send me a response and I'll then send you the pictures. Thanks!

Morning. Went over to the neighbor's with the information you gave me. Above the distributor cab, casted is C-123. Between the Oil filter and distributor is 9-29-D. So based on the information everybody contributed it's a 240 and it's made in '58, correct? Thanks!

I think it's a 240 also. So many things that are similar to my 404 like dash shape, the hex real axle housings, etc.

Man, I'd love to have that loader...

Pretty sure it is a 240. We will know for sure when you get that engine number. BTW guys, he sent me pics and I didn't get a virus

The whole rear end has 240 written all over it. Most certainly isn't a 460. I had a 240 for a while and it looked just like this one.

The serial number plate is suppose to be on the right side of the clutch housing. If missing look at the engine serial number. It should be above the distributor and start out c-123, c-135, or c-153 or something like that. Let us know.

Hard to tell between the two, IMO. It's either a 340 Utility or 460 Utility. Likely the former.

Engine is too short to be a 6 cylinder as found in a 460. Grille is wrong for a 504 or 404. 340 or 240 IMHO.

Could it be a 240? Doesn't quite look like a 340 to me.

judging just from the photos I found I'd go with a 340U the exhaust routing out the bottom is inconsistant with the 460 and 240 pics I found in the gallery. However I never score too well in the help identify category.

This is a tractor discusson board and this particular one is Tractor Talk. I don't see anything about it being a farmers discussion board or farm talk. I like to read the board about farming items but by no means am I a farmer or want to be. BTDT as a kid. There is a lot that can be learned on this board. I agree it hard to imagine anyone buying a tractor and now knowing what it is but as Forrest Gump said ??it happens.

It is a valid question. My neighbor bought an IH tractor and had the same problem. Neither one of us could find a model or serial number on it.

Given the 'quality' of most of the other questions asked on here, I would say the poster is legitimate, and should fit right in with the other yuppies, wanna-be farmers, and small time gardeners that frequent this site.

I'm siding with you on this one. It gets real annoying. I qualify as a small gardener, because I do not know what a yuppie is, and want to be a mechanic not a farmer. As someone said, someone elce's problem is their problem until you make it yours (something elce I learned from you guys) and I not gonna say "just leave then", but just please be more considerate to those of us who for various reasons do not have vast acerages.

Left side of this page, under Galleries, click on Tractor Photos. Check out those under Farmall. Might find one that looks like your neighbor's.

Thanks! We did review a bunch of the pictures, non were exact matches... we think it's a 1959. It's gas (not diesel)... If he was sitting next to me, we would know the details... I think he said it was a straight 4. I sent the pics to 3 responders. Please see when they post them for me.... Thanks!

RobMD,

It's called Email Hack, it was once the domain of jokers, long story short if you get an email from yourself with phone company attachments you might want to do a credit check and credit lock.

Thanks for the kind words, your pal;
