Information on Farmall Super C

The "letter series" of distinctive red Farmall tractors had its beginning in 1939, when the Farmall A was manufactured. A few years later, the Farmall Super C was designed for the farmer who needed a small tractor for light farming duties. Many of these tractors are still in use or being shown in antique tractor shows.

  1. History

    • International Harvester manufactured 112,006 of its McCormick Farmall Super C tractors from 1951 to 1954, when the Farmall 200 was made to replace the Super C.

    Engine

    • The Farmall Super C had a 123 cubic inch four-cylinder engine at 22 HP, which used gasoline as fuel.

    Transmission

    • The Super C had a four-speed transmission with four forward gears and one reverse gear.

    Attaching Implements

    • A hydraulic lever called the "touch control" system allowed the operator to lower or raise implements attached to the two-point fast hitch easily.

    Fun Fact

    • The McCormick Farmall Super C was tested for 40½ hours during the first week of June 1951 at the University of Nebraska College of Agriculture Experimental Station in Lincoln. One test done in second gear with a rated load took 10 hours.
