mhb, The early model "A" did indeed come without a starter. In fact the early models did not even have a place in the torque tube to mount a starter as an option. Later the torque tube was configured to accept a starter as factory equipped or as a dealer option. If no starter was present, a plate was placed over the hole where the starter would be mounted. The conversion option included the starter and the ring gear. Many times the starter option would also require adding the generator and a battery, with one exception, that being if the tractor was already equipped with the Delco light system which ran the lights through the battery rather than directly from the generator as the Bosch system had, then the generator was already there. Lights, as well as starters were both optional equipment and could be purchased together, as separate systems, or not at all.
