Just a rebadged, uprated 666 IH!!
Those IH '06 series tractors were much older than the 66 series. The 56 series , 656, 856... so on were in between. Back to the '06 series, the first "Big" tractor I ever got to run was a 1206 Turbo. Those were built in '67-68, they were the first IH Turbo tractors. Factory stock with a straight exhaust. Been watching one locally that might be retired soon for another project I don't need. :D

I stand corrected on the IH Corn Queen Farmall series, So many numbers floating in the old head anymore they do get crossed at times!!

Still recall the first '66 series TAs I had to deal with when they went tits up, the first TA units were the epitome of crap. Had later 'Updated' units that were as bulletproof as they come dragging 8/16 trip release plows on cousins farm, still makes my teeth hurt thinking of the resets when the plow heads tripped out.
