Longest runnung Production tractor design.

I'd just like to get some comments on this. The Model D John Deere gets credit for being the longest production run of any model and I don't argue that since it was sold under the same model designation for 30 years. However, we all know that the Model 'D' changed substantially from 1924 to 1953 and the later tractors were hardly comparable to the earlier ones. I'll allow that the basic design in terms of engine and drive train carried throughout.
Now I present to you the IHC Farmall 'A' of 1939. While this design carried various desinations as to model, it was produced from 1939 until the late 70's or early 80's- a substantially longer production run than the model 'D'. Further, in fact, there was far more similarity between the Farmall A of 1939 and the last production of this design by IHC in the late 70's or early 80's. I must apologize in that I do not know the exact last year of production or the model designation this design carried at the end. I'm sure someone here can contribute that information. In my mind this is the longest running production tractor. Just wondering what others comments will be
