our 641 is 4cyl gas 4spd with trans pto (disengages with clutch) vs live pto available in other models
it was repainted back in the 80's, friend of my dad was a painter and he painted the IH 706 and the Ford 641 at the same time - both International red
one of these days after I retire I would like to restore it to original red color and replace the decals.. it's already converted to 12 volt
there's a small tractor shop in Bates City that always has several out front for sale - might pick one up some day, handy little critters!
we pass it every time we go to Bates City BBQ - one of our family's favorites since I was a kid
