"Regular" has 3-speed transmission, a separate starting tank (can't start kerosene with a cold engine), and open steering gear. The automatic brakes were meant to make short turns in corn fields so as not to knock down corn (old IHC brochure I have shows how it was done--I learned to do that from the brochure). All Farmalls had this until the letter series came out. There were a few changes made to the tractor during production years (larger venturi, different seat mounts, addition of oil filter, enclosed governor levers). A "revolutionary" tractor because it really was a farm-all--it did everything that previously had been done with horses. Of course, it didn't nuzzle the farmer who fed it, like a horse might. A fun machine in a parade, but a bit of a beast in the field, especially on 36" rubber (much faster than the original 40" steel wheels).

It didn't have a pressure release or electric start to facilitate easy starting but according to the instructions, simply pulling on the trigger while cranking was sufficient.
