International Harvester Co. (now Case IH) implemented its own large-scale demonstration program in 1970. The tractors used in the program had magnificent gold paint schemes and were aptly dubbed the “Gold Demonstrators.” The Gold Demonstrators were available for only one model year and today, they are a hard-to-find treasure.
Case IH went on the road in 2007 to promote the new 2008 gold signature edition tractors and to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the popular Steiger tractor
Case IH selected one of the rare Gold Demonstrators to be a part of the display and promotions – an 826.
The 826 Gold Demo that was displayed at the Case IH corporate headquarters and at farm shows across the Midwest that summer sold at the fourth annual Mecum Gone Farmin’ Auction for 50k
