The Toy Tractor Times Celebrates Anniversary 2004
With the International 1086

"Your Old Friend Has a New Look"

On September 26, 1976 the International 1086 was introduced as part of the new Pro-Ag line, to IH ag dealers at the International Harvester World Headquarters in Chicago, Illinois. The heritage of over 5 Million Farmall tractors continued in the new 86 series Pro-Ag line. This was a totally new look in farming: A new tractor series built with the operator’s comfort in mind and built for the professional agri-businessman.

The IH 1086 was the mid-range model in the 86 series and rated 131 pto horse power at the Nebraska Tractor Test. Its picture graced silver Bulova watches given to IH dealers at the September 1976 dealer introduction meeting. Over the 1086's seven year production run, it became the Farmall M of 1970s with 47,420 tractors sold. IH sold 26,000 more 1086's than the next best selling 86 series tractor. The 1086 sold well because it could be the king pin on a dairy farm, a planter tractor on big grain farm and handle every chore in between.

Unique features never offered before on this model include:
** IH Control Center Cab with the correct black and white paint scheme found on the real IH 86 series.
** Authentic IH Precision Front Weights that are individually removable
** Rear die-cast IH Precision dual wheels with Good Year tires with 30-inch row crop tire spacing
** Steerable wide front end with large flotation tires
** New flood light decals under cab doors
** Special die-inscription designating the 1086 as the 21st Anniversary Tractor for TTT
** Collectors Edition Packaging with historical bullet points and TTT Big 70s Power Logo

The International 1086 is the second in a five piece series of 1970's tractors from The Toy Tractor Times. TTT’s Big 70s Power Series started in 2003 with the 1973 Allis-Chalmers 7030. The entire Anniversary line includes 19 tractors, dating back to 1986. Over the years TTT has been proud to work with CaseIH offering red classics in the anniversary series including the 1991 Farmall A, 1995 Farmall 706, 1996 International 1456, 1999 Farmall 230, 2001 Farmall 400 and now in 2004 the International 1086. The Total number of International Harvester 1086 models will be determined by the number of orders received by November 15, 2004.
