Hey Dutchman

Your calendar says the term "Comfort King" was introduced on April 17, 1965, but Stonehouse and Brumbaugh say it was 1962 which is what I remember as my dad and uncle were exploring the possibility of opening a Case dealership and I recall them talking about the "Comfort King.(Unfortunately, they did not do so.) I also remember an ad for the tractors used by the Bloodworth Brothers in Arkansas
and the term was used there at that time.
 
The Comfort King designation came with the relocation of the fuel tank to the rear of the tractor and the raised flat operators platform. Not sure, but the April 65 date could have been the production start date of the 930 CK / DOM tractors.
 
Tom, you are right in that the CK term was used in 62 for the 930 and later used in 64 for the 730 and 830. We can't give "Dutch" too much grief though as he does a whale of a job with the calendar and hope that everyone sends him their photos.
 
I'm always open for information ... I took the information from a older case calendar { got permission }
If it's WRONG ... we want to get it right for furture use...

So would you have any idea when in 62 ??

THANKS ... Mark
 
Sorry, all I have is what the book told me. I wasn't trying to put you down as I know how confusing research can be from my days as a graduate student in history.
 
No problem on this end ... just like to get the facts right ....

Maybe like it was said ... April was the production line started ...

THANKS for bringing to my attention ..

Mark
