There are several differences in a 1969 PK and a 1970 model. This one, only having one photo, I see that the seat hinges match those that were used starting in 1970.

This is a 1970 444, one year after the PK models. And yes that is a hydraulic lift control that you see.
Correct, only the '69 models are PK tractors, although the 1970 models look very similar.

I read somewhere that the Performance King models had a different Case decal on the hood, like the one in the pic that Dave posted. The Case decal on the pic I posted is different.
I was watching you tube video's this morning on Case GT's and seen a 195 with elephant ear fenders.

Look at seat hinges how large they are. This is one of the ways to determine a PK (1969) from 1970. It is not always correct but large barn style hinges are (one) good indicator of 1970 model. Serial Number is still the best way to tell.

Seller txt me today saying he has sold the 444. I didn't really want it any way, that's why I hesitated.
