Model History[]
- For Company history see
- Main article: International Harvester Co article
When it was introduced in 1908 the IHC Type A was similar to the original Friction Drive models, using the same Famous engines. However, the Type A used a single-speed gear-drive forward instead of friction drive. It retained the friction reverse. Beginning in 1909 some Type A 12-HP models were built with 2 forward speeds. In 1909 International purchased the factory of the Ohio Mfg. Co. and used it for continued production of Type A. Some Type A 15-HP tractors were built with 2-speed transmissions in 1910. Regular production ended in 1913 but a few Type A tractors were assembled as late as 1916.
