A NEW WORLD OF POWER • The Farmall 460 was the smallest of the 6-cyl. tractors and the diesel version had a direct-start system built by International Harvester. • From 1958 to 1963 the Farmall 560 tractors were one of the most popular models sold in the US. Farmers liked the smooth economical 6 cyl. engine, independent power take off and the Torque Amplifier.

In 2020, Farmall utility 95A, 105A and 115A tractors entered the marketplace.
