Gunny - You're right, IH never went bankrupt, but only by the skin of their teeth.  A long UAW strike left them with no cash.  Then the mgrs sold off chunks of the business - before the barbarians crashed through the gates.  The early 1980's was a tough time for farm equipment manufacturers.  White Farm Eqpt went bankrupt in '82, Massey Ferguson and Allis Chalmers struggled to survive, as well as IH.
