Excellent tractors and one of the favorite of case folks, especially the newer comfort king model. Most times they are the last tractor to go when a farmer gets older. The com is a torque converter drive system much like in a car or truck, only with manual lock up and shifting. Very reliable as about the only way to harm them is to run them low on oil. There are starting to be some issues with seals now, but they are 60 years old.
To drive you out it in gear, then let out the clutch, and just give it gas to go just like a car with auto trany. Some who are not used to them have trouble getting used to that because they want to let out the clutch at half throttle which gets the same result as dropping a car into drive at half throttle. On the latter comfort king model they changed the valve so you can feather the clutch and take off at higher throttle. Once you get moving you can either drive that way or pull a lever and lock the trany, then it will pull just like a dry clutch. In com mode the torque converter will slip and under load will keep the engine in the power band. So if your pulling a plow and hit a tough spot you shift to com and the torque converter will allow however much slip is necessary to get through the tough spot, when your on the other side just lock it again and the tractor pulls and performs like any dry clutch tractor.
Nothing more handy for things like loader work or backing wagons than a com.
If you need the 3pt you should be aware that it has an eagle hitch, not standard 3pt. Most standard 3pt equipment works fine, but for thing that need PTO and 3pt they require some minor modification to either the tractor or impliment because the standard 3rd arm hookup goes over the PTO. It is easy to fix that, but it is an issue.

Today's Featured Article - Harvestin Hay: The Early Years (Part 2) - by Pat Browning. The summer of 1950 was the start of a new era in farming for our family. I was thirteen, and Kathy (my oldest sister) was seven. At this age, I believed tractor farming was the only way, hot stuff -- and given a chance I probably would have used the tractor, Dad's first, a 1936 Model "A" John Deere, to go bring in the cows! And I think Dad was ready for some automation too. And so it was that we acquired a good, used J. I. Case, wire tie hay baler. In addition to a person to drive th
