Its robust construction and ample power made it a workhorse for tillage, planting, and harvesting operations.
The Case IH 1468 tractor was introduced in 1969 as part of the International Harvester line, continuing until 1971 when Case acquired International Harvester. It quickly gained a reputation for its robust design and powerful engine. The 1468 is powered by an International Harvester DT-402 diesel engine, a 451 cubic inch (7.4 liter) turbocharged 6-cylinder engine producing approximately 141 horsepower. The transmission is typically a gear-driven unit with either a 8-speed with Torque Amplifier, or optional 16-speed Torque Amplifier transmission. The PTO delivers around 120 horsepower, available in 540 and 1000 RPM configurations, making it versatile for various implements.

The 1468 found applications in row crop farming, hay production, livestock operations, and tillage, distinguishing itself with its heavier build and increased power compared to smaller models in the IH lineup. It was designed to handle demanding tasks like plowing, disking, and pulling large planters.
