Red Tractors 1958 - 2018

The latest edition of the award-winning history of International Harvester and Case IH tractors features an all-new cover and updated content, including data and photos of every model built from 1958 all the way up to 2018, as well as in-depth information on how these tractors were designed and constructed. Red Tractors 1958–2018 is a complete reprint of Red Tractors 1958–2013 and then some! 

With interviews of engineers and executives, the book covers how the 40 and 60 series were created, and thoroughly covers the red tractors from the 1960s through the 1980s. The book also traces the innovations and struggles of the final days of International Harvester. The authors unearthed a treasure trove of concept drawings and photos of prototype machines to shed new light on how these tractors were created. The book includes the exciting story of the creation of the Case-IH Magnum, an innovative machine that blends some of the great engineering done by IH with the Cummins engine built by Case. The modern era of Case IH is also included, with the story of the creation of the Quadtrac as well as the entire line of tractors. With a mix of new photography of some of the most exceptional collectible models in existence along with hundreds of previously unpublished photographs, this thorough book is the most authoritative guide on red tractors ever published.

• Design and development history of the tractors, with first-hand accounts from the engineers and other product-development specialists at IH and Case IH
• More than 725 images of IH and Case IH tractors including previously unpublished concept drawings as well as images of prototypes, test mules and more

Der Leser erhält in der Ausgabe 2014 dieses Buches Einblick in Geschichte und Gegenwart des weltweit agierenden Konzerns, der sich seit über 100 Jahren den Belangen der Landwirtschaft verpflichtet fühlt: von der Historie der ersten 25 Jahre des Neusser IH-Werkes über einen türkischen Schlepper mit IH-Logo und der Entschlüsselung der zahlreichen Neusser Getreidebinder-Typen bis zur Vorstellung des neuesten Case IH „Steiger Quadtrac“ Schleppers mit 670 PS.

Eine Weltkarte verdeutlicht die einstige weltweite Liefertätigkeit des Werkes aus Neuss am Rhein. Anekdoten aus dem Werk geben Anlass zum Schmunzeln.

International Harvester - Datenbuch der Schlepper aus Neuss am Rhein

IHC starte tractor production in Neuss in 1937. It started with American tractors because tractor development in the German Neuss factory did not start before the 1950's. The book gives a review of all models that were built in Neuss, including technical details and the main changes that were made during production. The book is extensively illustrated by photo's.  Also major technical details such as the Agriomatic transmission get fair attention. The first pages give a summary of the Neuss history, illustrated with original photographs. Photo's are primarily color, partly original factory photo's but also some photo's of restored tractors. Also export models like tractors intended for tropical destinations and vinyard tractors are covered.

The story of the four-wheel-drive tractors built by Steiger, International Harvester, Case, and Case IH is told in dramatic fashion in this authoritative guide. Starting with the development of early four-wheel-drive systems at International Harvester, the book traces the evolution and design some of the most powerful and capable tractors of the twentieth century. With fresh detail on the 4300, 4100, Steiger-built IH tractors, and the 2+2 tractors including the Super 70 series, the book offers prototype drawings of several models--including the complete story of the never-before-published Magnum 2+2-- as well as inside stories and backroom drama that is a must for any enthusiast for farm history or tractors. 

Learn the complete story of Steiger tractors, which were originally designed and built in the barn of John, Douglass, and Maurice Steiger located near Red Lake Falls, Minnesota. Containing interviews with more than 50 of the people who built Steiger from its humble origin to a world leader, the book traces the evolution of the lime green Steigers in engrossing detail. The book also covers the J.I. Case 4WD line in great detail. In addition, the book tells the story of how each of these significant players in the industry combined under one banner and—together—created one of the current industry-leading technologies, the Quadtrac. The modern evolution of the Steigers and the introduction of the STX Series (and more) also receive in-depth coverage.

The same team that created the award-winning books Red Tractors 1958–2013 and Red Combines 1915–2015 created this book, and notable new contributors include Sherry Schaefer (editor of Heritage Iron magazine) and noted historian Jim Allen. Contributors include Sherry Schaefer, Oscar H. Will III, Jim Allen, Kenneth Updike, Todd Markle, Gregg Montgomery, Guy Fay, Martin Rickatson, Sarah Tomac, Matthias Buschmann, Jean Cointe, Michael Osweiler, and Johann Dittmer.
