I'm fairly new to these Case/Ingersoll tractors myself, but here goes:

If you want to view/download a parts catalog that shows a basic construction of the tractor, with lots of exploded views to visualize "what makes it tick," you can go here:
http://www.rottmansales.com/ingersoll/index_files/Page688.htm

A quick cruise through the two available catalogs (one for "serial no. XXXX and after" and one for "prior to XXXX) I picked up:

-"Smaller-wheeled" version of the product line, with the Model 195 being it's big-wheeled brother (sharing many of the same parts, BTW).

-Hydraulic drive system arranged similarly to other C/I tractors with a Hy Drive, including the later models (200/400, 3000/4000 series).

-Manual Implement Lift standard, w/an available Optional Hydraulic Lift Kit.

-Optional front PTO Kit (E-6)

You can pick up information on other features and engine data, etc. in the above-listed catalogs also.

One thing that I did find interesting about this model is that some of them apparently came with "disc-type brakes."

Whether or not any of this makes the tractor "any good" would be totally up to you I suppose.

Just my .02 Ameros.
