What model JD, GP or A?

I Owen all the different versions of the unstyled B's. That is a John Deere cast iron short frame model built from mid 1935 to mid 1937. Early 1935 had 4 bolt pedestal with light angle iron frame later 37 had longer angle iron frame. The two bolt steer cap, cast frame, small flywheel and off set stacks that is very visible from a distance tells me what it is. Looks like original rear tires on back!! DW
 
Definitely early B the short frame gives it away. Rusty round spokes in an older picture mean it likely had factory rubber rear tires. No sign of metal louvers in radiator so not late 1937. Its also not early 1935 with more than 4 bolts. It is the spitting image of Dads 1936 B. If you are looking for a 1/16 scale thats what Id try searching
 

Just for comparison, this is a '36 B (now sold):

This is another '36 B with cut-offs:

The other (clutch hub) side is visible in the video below. I think it is similar to the original poster's photo.
