Dad bought a 4100 in the early 70's and kept it about a decade. He farmed with it, and also had a snow blade for it. In the winters of '77 and '78 it got a workout. He traded it toward a 1256, which he still has, and, from what I gather, wouldn't trade the 1256 for any 4100.
Before trading it off, a farmer in the neighborhood wanted to buy the 4100 from dad, screwed him around, and tried to talk him down on the price. In the end, he paid $3000 more at a jockey auction for that tractor than dad wanted for it, and had the expense of having it hauled it 100 miles back home. That 4100 sat in a pasture about 5 miles from here for years when I was a kid. Supposedly something gave up the ghost in the rear end and they parked it. They cleaned up the pasture about 15 years ago.
The 4100 is not a common tractor. Most probably had the snot worked out of them, and few are probably functionally intact today. I think IH changed the model designation, and maybe a few small things and it became the 4156. From what I gather, the 4156 is far rarer than the 4100.

A copse of wildbreaking silver birch and oak trees surround the top si
