Been enjoying tinkering with the Farmall 756 gas and reading volumes of info on these tractors, along with 706, 806 and 856 tractors.
Also have asked questions and read much about JD 4020 and JD 3020 gas tractors.
But what about the other gas tractors offered in the same time period?
The IH tractors listed above are known for drinking gas, lower rebuild costs and if cared for, i.e. low ash oil and appropriate octane gas, are/were IMHO pretty good tractors.
Where do J.I. Case, Oliver, Allis Chalmers and other make 65-100 hp gas tractors fall out? Were there offerings, assume 6 cylinder engines. Did Ford and MF make large hp gas tractors?

While this may have been the bread and butter of the belt work in the past (since this is what made the money on many farms), the smaller tasks may have been and still can be its real claim to fame. The thresher would bring in the harvest (and income) once a y
