Does anyone know anything about an IH tractor, I think a 1066, built in 1976 with a special paint scheme? I think it was called The Spirit of 76 or maybe it was called a Bicentennial tractor. An employee of the local IH dealer (about 30 years ago) told me that this tractor had a very impressive paint scheme and that only a very limited number were built--dealers were only allotted 1 each. If these tractors were actually built; are there any of them left-was the paint scheme the only identifying characteristic-does anyone have any other information about them?

Mike has it right. It was a CASE, not an IH. I have not seen one for quite a long time.

I think Massey had one too, only not as elaborate as the Case.

Hey everyone.......there was a 1066 that celebrated IH's 5,000,000 th tractor......the cab and hoods were white and the wheels were chromed. There is a small picture on page 205 of Baumheckel and Borghoff's International Harvester farm equipment product history 1831-1985
Sorry I can't get the picture up.
It is out there,
