In order to expand the National Farm Toy museum and add an exhibit showing the history of International Harvester the Toy Tractor Times is both selling and auctioning off 200 1/16th models of its current 1066 IH anniversary tractor. These models are special because they have a decal showing the logo of Kohlman farms on the door, and a certificate of authenticity. Kohlman Farms owns the original 1066 that the TTT anniversary tractor was based on. The certificate of authenticity is autographed by TTT owner Jason Hasert.
#200 of the 200 1066s that are being produced is currently being auctioned off on eBay. The last time I checked the price was up to $337.

If that is too rich for your blood, you can buy one of the other 199 at http://www.toytractortimes.com/ for $75 + $12 S&H.
Also being auctioned off by the Toy Tractor Times is a chrome 1066 that is one of 36 in the world. The proceeds from this auction also go to support the National Farm Toy museum. The chrome auction can be viewed at:

This auction is currently at 1,880.55 and has 24 hours left at the time of this post. It’s a hefty price but if you consider that its one of 36 in the world, it could turn out to be a VERY valuable collectors item worth twice that much.
The Picture I included in this post is of the regular 1066 produced for Toy Tractor Times this year. The Kohlman farms 1066 will be similar except for the decal.
