The merger of McCormick Harvesting Machine Company and the Deering Harvester Company in 1902 resulted in the formation of the International Harvester Corporation (IHC) of Chicago, Illinois, which over the next three quarters of a century evolved to become a diversified manufacturer of farming equipment,
construction equipment, gas turbines, trucks, buses, and related components. In the 1980's, the company sold off most of its divisions but the one that remained was the Truck Division and the company changed its name in 1986 to Navistar International Corporation with the right to keep its IH logo. The International Truck continues to do a vibrant business.
