I do remember when they came out as i got to drive the vary first one around here wright off the truck . Then i told my boss about it and he had to see it . He drove it and bought it before it was showen at the Canfield fair in Sept or 63 . He let the dealer show it during the fair but at 11:00 P m. Labor day evening it was on the truck and off to his farm . By Wednesday the new five bottom plow was hooked to it and it was doing the fall plowing . Friday afternoon My uncle came up to Howard's farm to see this new BIG tractor and old Kenny the farm manager let my uncle plow with it . Saturday morning i was with my uncle when he and i went to the other I H dealer and they were just unloading one off the truck and my uncle bought it and it was at the farm Saturday after noon and hooked to the tater harvester . It was the first tractor that could pull the harvester on the hilly farms with out a second tractor hooked to it . They were awesome tractors . Going from a 560 Diesel to and 806 was unreal. Pulling five bottoms at five to six Mph and pulling a 16 foot disc. When spring came a 706 Diesel was added With a set of four bottoms . Coming from where i first started plowing when i was around eight or nine running and Oliver OC 3 pulling two bottom drag plow following and Oliver OC 6 with three bottom three point plows with it following a D4 cat pulling five bottom drag plows then up to the 460 and 560 to the 806 and the 706 Almost light speed from the turtle pace with crawlers .
