1976 Case 446 Spirit Of 76

One of only two authentic 446 Spirit of '76 tractors known to exist. Case built these for exhibition use in the 1976 Racine Wisconsin bicentennial parade. The actual number built remains unknown, but is thought to be less than ten. They were also taken to other promotional events during 1976 and then sent to the dealers to be sold. This tractor was sent to Iowa and sold to a Church group; they added the loader, which was originally white. I purchased the tractor from its second owner who restored it. It is proper except for the seat which was originally a standard black seat. I know of several other knock offs, but this is real. Approximately 300 1570 Spirits were built, along with six 1370 Spirits. I hope to one day acquire a full size Spirit of �76 tractor to accompany this tractor. Anyone looking to sell one is welcome to contact me at [email protected] Submitted by Jason Kozlowski, from PA
