Overview

1958 - 1979

Production

Original price was $8,200 in 1979

The International 140 began as the industrial version of the Farmall 140. Industrial tractors had heavier front axles and foot-operated throttles, among other options. As the Farmall and International brands were merged the differences simply became options that the buyer could order.
