They moved production to a new plant shortly before the end of the B series. The last several months of the B was a C with some different sheet metal. A New Holland dealer can run the s/n and tell you which shift on what day the machine was built, and if you have a true B or a hybrid B/C.
I think the 555 got a 4 cylinder in the D series, if not it did in the E series, which is when they did a significant redesign.
The older 555s will lift a lot more than they have any business lifting, more than a 580 sm Case. But they are slower.

They'd be the first I'd look at if I were looking for a backhoe.

The year was about 1967 and my father found a good used Ford 601 tractor to use on the farm instead of "Bob", our old mule. Now my grandfather had had this mule since the mid 40's and he was getting some age on him. S
