landman Posted February 15, 2016 Posted February 15, 2016 This 1959 International R230 has a 743 cu.in. Rolls Royce engine in it. Apparently IH made a deal with RR to snub Cummins in the 50's. According to the article the Rolls engines weren't any good and most were replaced. The photos show before, during and after restoration.
plastic trucker Posted February 16, 2016 Posted February 16, 2016 Never knew that IH used RR's engines at one time. Thanks for posting it.

lapazleo Posted February 16, 2016 Posted February 16, 2016 Generally Rolls powered binders were sold in Canada.
