A ligit black stripe will have the serial number plate on the right side of the tractor. There have been a lot of "clones" done of black stripes.

Subject: [Farmall] Help with info on 1066 Black Stripe


I may be venturing into a new area of IH tractors.  I found a 1066 Black Stripe 
in excellent original condition with 3500 original hours.  I can’t find a dent 
in it, paint is original and has some gloss left; I think a little wax will 
bring it back to almost “like new”.  I can find information on the 1066 but not 
a whole lot on the Black Stripes other than they were made in 1976 during the 
last year of production and have some features of the 86 series.  We had a 966 
on the farm when I was leaving to go to college but never had any experience 
with it since I wasn’t around much anymore.  I always wanted to add a 
larger/newer IH cab tractor to the fleet and I am giving this one serious 
thought, my youngest IH is a 460 Hi-Utility Diesel.  Can anyone tell me what 
makes the 1066 Black Stripe different from the standard 1066 and any other 
information they think I should know about the 1066.
