Model History[]

For Company history see
Main article: International Harvester

For row-crop version see: Farmall 140

The 140 High Clearance replaced the high-clearance version of the previous Farmall 130. The High Clearance received the same restyling as the regular Farmall 140. In 1968 the McCormick Farmall 140 High Clearance was rebranded International Farmall 140 High Clearance.

Tractor Comparison[]

During its many years of production, the only competition for the Farmall 140 High Clearance came in the late-1950s from the heavier and more powerful Allis-Chalmers D-10 High Clearance, Case 312B, and John Deere 430 Hi-Crop.
