In my area the Tenneco merger killed Case. They got rid of the Case personal( Territory managers and such) and kept the IH people. I personally know of several LARGE Case dealerships that walked the IH territory men out the door at the first meetings. The IH personal in this area acted like "They/IH" was saving Case rather than the other way around. Those dealers dropped CIH and became Duetz-Allis an then on to AGCO dealerships.
As for market share and such. The two salesman at the JD dealership I worked at both said that single move made them lots of sales. The value of the Case equipment dropped like a rock and the IH did drop too but not as bad as the Case equipment did. 1370/1570 tractors where traded in with little trade-in value. The ones we got where loaded up and sent to Sikeston, Mo. Either to auction or salvage yards. The salvage yards where paying as much as the auction prices where bringing.
It took 3-4 years before there was much CIH stuff sold around here. It took CIH another 15 years to get back to anywhere near where they where in this area.

This story is about the day my Grandfather Brown (true name) decided along with my parents to purchase a new Ford tractor. It wasn't really new except to us. The year was about 1967 and my father found a good used Ford 601 tractor to use on the farm instead of "Bob", our old mule. Now my grandfather had had this mule since the mid 40's and he was getting some age on him. S
