I still have one on the trailer (NOT RUNNING) that I bought last week. I don't know alot about them but the books came with this one so I will give you what info I've read.

Was available in Gasoline, Gas/Distillate, and Diesel configurations.

The Torque Amplifier was and option.

There were two types of Hydraulic pumps offered, a 9 gallon per min gear type pump mounted externally at the engine front cover plate and driven buy the engine or a 12 gallon per minute gear type pump mounted internally in the clutch housing and driven by the IPTO. Hydraulic valves can be set for either single or double action cylinders. Tractors came with 1,2 or 3 valves.

Seasonal Disconnection on the IPTO was an option.

Belt Pully was also an option which was attached at the rear over the IPTO.

Power Adjusted Rear Wheels were an option.

They were offered with a battery ignition or a magneto ignition.

Were offered with 11.2x36, 12.4x36,and 13.9x36 rear tires

Wide front ends came with 5.00x15 or 6.00x16 tires
Narrow front ends came with 5.00x15.

Gasers were 6 volt and Diesels were 12 volt.

As far as I can tell no creaper gear was offered.

Looks to be the last up grade of the Model "C"

Built from 1958 to 1963. Less that 7200 built. Weight 4404 lbs.

That about all from this guy. GOOD LUCK
