This is the
International Harvester 1086 in 1/16 scale. The tractor was
issued by the
Toy Tractor Times magazine in 2004 as their 21st anniversary tractor,
and the second tractor in their "Big 70's Power"
series. The
tractor features sturdy, die-cast construction, rubber tires, and
diecast rear rims. Details unique to this model include precision front weights that are
individually removable, precision diecast rear rims with Goodyear tires
and 30 inch row-crop spacing, authentic 1086 decals and paint scheme,
painted bolt heads, and cast-in inscription denoting model as the Toy
Tractor Times 21st anniversary tractor.
This particular model was one of only 18 chrome units
produced for Toy Tractor Times authors and supporters. This was
the first Toy Tractor Times chrome tractor given to the authors, and
the most limited of the author tractors. It has all the detailed
features of the production tractor, but the diecast body is finished in
chrome instead of red paint.
The
model has never been displayed, and was only removed from the
packaging for these pictures. It was carefully repackaged after the
photos were
taken. The box is in
mint condition. Item will be shipped in it’s original shipping
carton, which in turn will be put inside an oversized box with packing
material around it.

model. Serious inquiries only please.
