All Farmall tractors were painted a deep blue-grey until mid-1936 (around July through September). The color has often been mistaken for battleship grey, but it was actually bluer. The wheels were most often red. In mid-1936, a decision was made to change the entire tractor (frame, sheet metal, engine, and wheels) to a new color, 'Farmall Red'.
On February 1, 1974, at 9:00 am, the five-millionth tractor came off the assembly line at the Farmall Plant in Illinois; IH was the first tractor manufacturer to reach that number. [20] Also in 1973, IH officially dropped the "Farmall" name from its tractors, ending a name that had begun with the first Farmall "Regular" in 1924.
The Farmall Cub or International Cub (or simply "Cub" as it is widely known) was the smallest tractor manufactured by International Harvester (IH) under either the McCormick-Deering, Farmall, or International names from 1947 through 1979 in Louisville, Kentucky.

The immediate predecessor to the W-6 was the International W-30 , a version of the Farmall F-30 , which had a wide front axle in comparison to the F-30's narrowly-space front wheels.

The M was created to address the increasing demand for small tractors, and compete with the increasingly popular Ford, and the smaller Farmall tractor models. The M was the second John Deere tractor to use a vertical two-cylinder engine, after the LA, but the first to with a square bore to stroke ratio of 4.0 in × 4.0 in (102 mm × 102 mm) 100 ...
Farmall tractors were sold alongside wide-front McCormick International-badged tractors of the same series. Initial production was mainly from imported parts. The first fully-Australian-made tractors were not built at the Geelong works until 1948.
In 2007, MTD began building the low-end lawn and garden tractors for its otherwise competitor, Toro. In 2008, MTD began having a third-party company (located in China) manufacture a new line of engines for the Craftsman 2008 line of snowthrowers. They are no longer building them with Tecumseh engines.
