In our area in Southwestern Ontario we have lots of 856 is but I never ever saw a 826 didn't know the existed and I thought I knew everything when I was younger LOL my dad bought a new 756 in 1968 that was a great tractor, however I never had pedal tractor when I was a kid and I was born in 1959 however in 2005 my parents actually gave me 826 gold demonstrator wide front end International pedal tractor, they said I never had one when I was a kid that was time LOL they got one that wasn't assembled because they weren't sure if I wanted a white front end or a narrow front end 806, my father passed away in January of 2006 so on Christmas Eve of 2006 my mother and I assembled it in the living room, both my parents are gone now and I'm 65 and I'm looking at that beautiful tractor in my Recreation room reliving memories , just watching your video brought back so many memories of the hours I spent looking out over the hood thank you and I love both your tractors!
I'm farming my grandpa's land next year, and I am looking for a decent 826. We have one in the weeds but she's gone to the weather and I'd like to find another or something similar
I don't know what your budget is, or your location, but there are a couple in WI that I've seen, including one on FB marketplace that was misidentified as a 756.
I had my 826 overhauled at 7000 hours. I found an M&W turbo kit had it put on left the fuel just as it was. It dyno's at 115hp. When going down the road in 8 th gear going from TA to the high side you better hang on, snappy doesn't describe it well.
I can't remember, a Red Tractor guy around the area had a manifold and turbo setting around used , I'm thinking around 600$ I sent the turbo off to have it rebuilt. The M&W kit routes the exhaust to the same hole in the hood as original muffler I just put a chrome stack coming out of the turbo the whistle is great. It changed the performance of this tractor completely.
Nice pair of tractors! Both sound nice

Always had a soft spot for the 826. Grew up a Deere guybut my grandfather Art had two as his main horses along with a massey ferguson 88
856 all day every day.
No Joke.

I love the 826 I grew up operating one with the diamond cab
Just curious, but what tires did you have on yours?

How much did that turbo kit set you back? Sounds like a great add-on!

The birds appear to prefer the 826
Ha! They've just had more time to work on the 826. Unfortunately the 856 is catching up fast.
The 856 is more powerful
I'm sorry with y'all who think the 856is better but I like the 826 I have and it put puts sounds good and it's my favorite tractor on our farm soooooo
