Do implements that fit a B Model also fit The C and CA Models?

Basically NO. The B/C pick-up plows will interchange between the B&C if each respective tractor has all of the correct mounting brackets. As for Cultivators each model has their own setups. Then there were the rear mounted drill planters (corn planters) that could be pulled with B&C tractors with the proper hitches or if the B had the Snap-Coupler hitch. If you have a CA many implements are still somewhat easy to find being either pin-hitch or snap-coupler. As for the B&C tractors, finding all of the proper brackets to mouth any of the implement that were made for they is getting harder all the time.

If it was fun to pull in LOW gear, I could have a John Deere.
Real pullers don't have speed limits.

Really good tractor. We use ours weekly to mow the yard at the farm, has a L306 belly mower on it. Have a 2 bottom plow, belly sickle mower, full cultivators, rear blade. Amazing the work it can do.

As 720 man says, a CA is a great little tractor and it will do just about anything that you could ask of it. A CA will use the pin-hitch/snap-coupler implements that are the narrower cross arm and shorter pull bar that the larger tractors. Also if you would want a side sickle mower, find an 80S with D12 mounts and everything will bolt right up. Stay away from an 82S as they stick out a little further and the poorly designed mount for the D10/12 is not very secure being it really is only bolted by the 2 bellhousing bolts. The extra distance sticking out to the right is really more weight than you should have out that far and kinda makes the tractor unsafe. If you plan on getting a loader, I'd suggest only doing that with a wide front tractor, The narrow front is perfectly OK for everything else. With a loader you'll lose the ability to steer before you run out of lift capacity. Often the hand clutch is slipping or bolted. They can be rebuilt to easily hold better than the stock engine clutch. Biggest little tractor ever made.

I have a 52 CA, you will not regret buying one, that tractor has no idea it's a small tractor.

For a small tractor to use with smaller sized implements, go with the CA. Lots of advantages and very powerful for the size.

My late father said the CA was the perfect fit for the Roto-baler.

I tried to follow the science, but it was not there. I then followed the money, and that’s where I found the science.
