White 70 range – five tractors from White 1270 to 2270: 30.9 to 110.3 kW, three- to six-cylinder engines, some with Fiat engines, two types with diesel/LPG operation
White Farm Equipment's 70 range, which grew out of White Motor Corporation's takeover of several US tractor makers such as Oliver and Minneapolis-Moline, spans with the types 1270, 1365, 1470, 1870 and 2270 a wide range from compact to large field tractor. The four-digit type designation orders the range roughly by power class. According to the register, the engines on two of the five types come from Fiat, pointing to individual units sourced from Fiat's European programme.

The register lists here 5 versions with 30.9 to 110.3 kW (41 to 150 hp) from three- to six-cylinder engines of 2,592 to 9,586 cm³, torque of 147 to 279 Nm and rated speeds of 1,800 to 2,400 rpm. Unladen weights range from 1,870 to 7,754 kg, length from 2,921 to 4,648 mm, width from 1,597 to 2,426 mm and height from 1,489 to 2,515 mm; two types run optionally on diesel/LPG, three on diesel alone.
With its wide span from compact to large tractor, White covered several market segments at once with a single range in the 1970s and 1980s, from the small mixed farm to large-scale arable operations. The diesel/LPG variants targeted operations relying on the liquid-petroleum-gas fuelling common in North America.
Buying used White 70-range models, the LPG variants call for checking the gas system and ignition equipment, the diesel engines the cooling system and injection pump, and the larger types the transmission and rear axle. As White Farm Equipment no longer exists, parts run through specialist dealers for Oliver and White tractors and, for the Fiat engines, through the Fiat parts network.

What to check before buying
- Check the hour meter against the service records — a replaced instrument is the most common gap.
- Compare the data plate and chassis number with the papers.
- Check the weights in the papers against the figures here — attachments change them.
- Check front and rear tyre sizes: mismatched pairs strain the drivetrain.
- Shift the gearbox cold and warm — jumps only show up at temperature.
- Load the hydraulics and watch for sag.
- Ask about parts availability for this build year — the running costs hang on it.
