Bringing a 1959 international 340 back to life

Going to pick up an abandoned international harvester 340 utility tractor. Not sure how long it’s been sitting, the grandchildren of the estate say not in their lifetime has it moved. I got it running an driving and hope to put it back to work oneday

Redoing my grandpa's 61 344 right now complete rebuild block was full of water for 16 years

Mine looked better and ran before my dad and i restored it. 3000 hours of use later after restoration i can say the 340 utility is one of the nicest tractors ever made. Mine is a '62. With purchase price, rebuild kit, paint and miscellaneous odds and ends have about $6000. Worth every penny and busted knuckle!

You should add a turbocharged for it

I've been working on a 460 utility with the 61hp diesel 6 cylinder that a saved that was in a building fire

Thanks for the video. I just recently got a International 240 utility tractor I'm working on, it's definitely not the prettiest thing around but has a lot of potential. Please let me know if you have any updates or future videos on your 340.
