Introduced in early 1942, the Case VA series was a new range of agricultural tractors designed to replace the Case V series (models V, VC, VI and VO). Although similar in appearance to the V, it shared no major components. Apart from tractors intended for military use, production of the Case VA ceased in July 1942, due to the company turning its attention to war equipment manufacturing. It resumed in 1944, and continued until early 1953. Following another short break, the company reintroduced the tractor at the end of that year, with production being on a limited basis until 1956. Almost 150,000 Case VA series tractors were built during the 14 years of production. (Based on information from ‘Yesterday’s Tractors’ (www.yesterdaystractors.com))
