International Harvester 706

The International Harvester 706 was a widely-used utility tractor during its production years, demonstrating versatility in agricultural tasks. Available in both two-wheel and four-wheel drive models, it catered to various farmer needs and was compatible with a range of implements. The tractor could be fitted with a couple of different diesel engines, the D282 and D310, or gasoline/LP-gas engines, the C263 and C291, all of which were inline six-cylinder engines boasting robust performance for the period. It featured a hydrostatic power steering system, which eased the burden of maneuvering in the field. The available hydraulic disc brakes provided reliable stopping power for the tractor's substantial weight. The 706 model offered the choice between an open operator station or an optional cab, preparing it for a variety of weather conditions. International Harvester’s reputation for durability and performance was well embodied by the 706, solidifying its place in the history of farming equipment.
