The only ITC I'm aware of was based in Covington, IN, and they sold Millenium/Tong Yang tractors, too. They had a 24HD and a 25HD that was listed, but no other info...

There was a 711 skid-steer, as well as various others. Massey sold the industrial equipment business, at least in part, to Fermec in England, so they may have been built by Fermec. In South America, it became Maxion.

All of AGCO brands of tractors mentioned are built Italy.

The AGCO GT-series is built by Same-Deutz Fahr, and has a Same engine.

The Challenger MT300B series and MF 3600 series are built by Agritalia. (Agritalia builds tractors for John Deere, Claas/Renault, Case IH, Valtra as well as their own Carraro brand). The MT300B does not have a Cat engine, either. They don't advertise a brand name, and I couldn't find one last week when I was looking at one. The 3600-series has SisuDiesel engines.

FYI, Caterpillar does not build ANY of the Challenger products for AGCO as AGCO bought the designs and manufacturing processes. Cat does supply the engines, licenses the Challenger name and Cat logo, and supplies some parts.

There hasn't needed to be copyright/patent protection because everything was government owned! The government still owns the majority of the factories, at least in part.

I thought the Foton only came from one company, though... Foton Heavy Industries (Lovol).

Hercules sold tractors built by Benye. So anyone selling Benye or Benye-built tractors should be able to help.

Dragon tractors were built by Feng Shou, I believe, which became Jiangling, and is now Mahindra Jiangling. Lenar currently imports Feng Shou/Jiangling tractors, so you may try them. Also, the Dragon Tractor Corp, of Trion, GA, became the Branson Tractor Company. So, Branson may be able to help as well.

Jinma used to build the smaller tractors that Rural King sold, but they now say Foton. Foton is the largest tractor builder in China, according to their website. They do NOT build anything for John Deere. They do advertise a Perkins engine in them, which is actually NOT a licensed Perkins, (although it used to be!!). It is actually a Tianjin Perkins engine.

ALL McCormicks are made overseas. McCormick originally came out of the old IH plant in England, which they are now closing down. The others are built in Italy in the Landini/ARGO factories.

There were two different Kodiak tractors sold in recent years in the USA. One was based in Bergman, Arkansas or Arizona (??) and were imported from China. The other was based in Apple Valley, CA and claimed to be made in the USA, (although I suspect they were only "assembled"). Not sure of the actual factory in China that built them.

You might try [url]http://www.kodiakdiesel.com/[/url] as they "used" to sell the tractors.

Montana has some quality tractors. Many are built by LS, (formerly LG), in South Korea, and known as the 40 series. LG previously had tie-ups with Mitsubishi, Fiat and still do with New Holland. (In S.Korea, there are LS-New Holland tractors available). LS also builds tractors for Tafe and Farmtrac (previously Long).

The 60 series are built in Romania by UTB (Universal Tractors, previously sold as Long tractors and Longtrac, and basically Fiat designs).

The 70 series are built in South Korea by TYM, (Tong Yang Moolsen), which has tie-ups with Same and Case IH. The model sold by Montana actually has a John Deere engine. TYM tractors are sold in North America as TYM, Mahindra, Scorpion and previously as Millenium.

The 15-series comes from a new agreement with Mitsubishi. These are from Japan, I believe.

FYI,

TYM, Scorpion and the former Millennium tractors are all one and the same. They are built in South Korea by Tong Yang Moolsan.

Mahindra is an Indian company (from India). They sell their own tractors, as well as the 10-series which is built by Tong Yang, and the new 15-series built by Mitsubishi. The original Mahindra's were an International Harvester design.
