I have a Case 200 and a Case 630. The 200, 210, 211 are all 200s. The last 2 numbers refer to the model (narrow front, row crop,etc.) The 200 had a 126.5 cu in gas engine, could have several transmission options. Mine is 4F 1R. Others could be triple range 12F 3R, shuttle, and perhaps Case o Matic. My 200 and 630 both have the case version of 3 pt hitch called Eagle Hitch. This is easy to hook up implements to because you just back under the pins and lift the arms, however some cat 1 equipment will not fit. The eagle hitch arms are also shorter than standard 3 pt hitch so pto shafts often have to be shortened. The eagle hitch armes also are fixed i.e. do not swing. Cat2 implements will not hook up at all. I think none of the 200s had live PTO. It is listed as having 31 hp. Have had it since new in 1960. Very reliable.
The 430 was an update and perhaps a little bigger chassis than the 200. It had a 148 cu in gas or 188 cu in diesel engine making about 33-34 HP. The diesel could be turned up to make more HP since the same engine was used in the 50 hp 630 diesel. The later models 430 could have live PTO. Some of the 30 series had Eagle hitch and some had standard 3 pt. There were several transmission options also, same as for the 200s. I really like my 630 and wouldn't mind having a 430 or 530 also (as well as a 730,830,930,1030). Hope this information is useful.
Phil
ps. I think the Eagle Hitch could be converted to standard 3 pt rather easily.
