sent CaseIH an email while back.

heres what I said:
Hello CaseIH, not sure why my message didn't go through. I just had a question about J I Case. It seems like you see a lot of IH merchandise, toys, etc. I was just curious why you don't see the J I CASE (OLD Abe or the block CASE logo). Sometimes I see the company reflect more towards the IH side then the Case. I think the Case Heritage means just as much as the IH. I know there's a lot of Case guys out there who eventually turned red after the release of the Magnums in 88. One thing I love that CASE construction did was the Eagle and globe on the skidloaders. My family has a long history of running Case equipment.

I attached a pic of my 970

Hello Kenny,

Thank you for sharing the great picture of you on the 970. It is obvious you are a proud owner.

We do consider the JI Case tractors an important part of our company's history.

We have shared your feedback with the Case IH Sales and Marketing department as they decide on future merchandise options to offer.

Again, thank you for sharing your love of JI Case products and your 970 tractor.

Best regards,

Sharon

THANKS casepower970 ! i would say it time for us on the CASE forum to get busy and do what we can. call CASEih, e-mail, or write them. jay

As i read at past posts I see others feel the same, like what one guy was saying about going to Farm and Fleet and seeing a sea of red. Only most recent case release I know of is the Case hat with Old Abe on a angle, still pretty cool though. I could see in my head some pretty sweet stuff.


On a toy website, called toytractortimes. The IH guys were b'in and moaning because they the precision release was CASE, considering theres only been two Cases thats been a precision. An IH guy was saying CaseIH is red, so why should they be making Case toys?? I cant even look back at the thread, the admins deleted because everyone kept fighting! HA

Where did you send that email? Tell us and we all will send off one
like that,,
Thanks so much

Hi CaseDC3, I went to the contact section of the J I CaseIH Website.


I provided a link for you and for others: http://www.caseih.com/en_us/Pages/ContactUs.aspx

As a mostly "red guy"...I think its GREAT that ERTL is doing a precision CASE tractor this year. The 1570 is not my most fave model, (I prefer Black Knight/Golden Demos) but I'm hoping to get a Spirit of 76 model.

A tip for those who are really wanting more CASE items. Get a license from CNH (they are always open to applications) and make it!!!

There are thousands of great "trinkets" that could be made. Look at all the cr@p labeled for deeeeeeree and Hogly Davison......

And you really thing that's going to help? Are you interested in a bridge???

Just ain't enough Case toy collectors to warrent a special run.

You know a good way to look at this, jd out sells IHcase and has for a long time and I am a RED man but on the other other side of that coin if case sold a 1/3 as many tractors in its days as IH did somebody would be making those toys and shirts but it will never happen so we all have to live withit.
