CNKS You don't seem to mention the 74 series, did IH not sell them in the US? We had two 74 series tractors in our buyers guide, being the 574 and 674, don't know if that was the complete line up in Europe. They became an extreemly popular tractor in my area with livestock farmers growing hay only, for basically 7 months stored feeding. Because the wheelbase was shorter than Farmalls they became a bit hit on 9'haybines and balers with throwers

The 574 and 674 are basically same specs as 584 and 684, sheet metal styleing being the only difference. I think I would have bought one of these tractors had I been in the market for that kind of horse power. These tractors had exceptional ground clearence, great around large windrows of hay. For the guy used to 5 speed with TA that free wheeled, these tractors offered 8 and 4 plus TA that did not free wheel, giving 16 foreward and 8 reverse, same as the larger 06, 56, 66 and 86 series tractors. The one that turned me off on these was being used to 6 cylinders in that hp class.
