I got this a couple days ago, and I'm trying to figure out exactly what I have. I made up a little web site with pics.(link below)
From the sn (738) this appears to be a 1963, and the 237th 806 made (they started with 501).
Can anybody tell me if this is at all rare? Obviously 806's are everywhere, but you don't see a lot of International 806's that are not wheatlands, do you?
Are those the right fenders? They look like they go on a Farmall 806- I think this had the round fenders.
I'm in the market for: -grill, -large "international" hood emblems, -ether injector, -seat, -steering knuckles, king pins (they have been welded, various steering components-the steering is very sloppy -parking brake not working -Tach not working- maybe send out for rebuild? -TA not working- to expensive to fix
ALSO- There is no charging system installed at the moment. The former owner installed 2 12 v batteries on the assumption that it was a 24v system. I don't think this is right.
The original generator is gone, and a delco alternator is there, not wired up. He did however give me a John Deere 24v generator and voltage regulator. So- since those batteries are nearly new and expensive (John Deere strongbox), I think I might wire up the 24v generator.
None of the instruments work, or are disconnected. Clearly, I'll have to wire them to one of the batteries to get 12v.
A real fixer-upper! I don't plan to make it a show tractor, but I'd like to fix much of this and use it on the farm. The engine is fine (a little blow-by out the bottom- not bad). Gears all seem fine. Clutch decent.

Today's Featured Article - The Cletrac General GG and the BF Avery A - A Bit of History - by Mike Ballash. This article is a summary of what I have gathered up from various sources on the Gletrac General GG and the B. F. Avery model A tractors. I am quite sure that most of it is accurate. The General GG was made by the Cleveland Tractor Company (Cletrac) of Cleveland, Ohio. Originally the company was called the Cleveland Motor Plow Company which began in 1912, then the Cleveland Tractor Company (1917) and finally Cletrac.
