its hard to tell because it is unstyled, from a distance it would appear as either A or B but i can tell you one thing getting a good pulling head for a B is hard more than likely if its a puller with work done to it its probably an A.

Thanks for the kind commants guys. Its a 1935 A unstyled that I built just for antique tractor pulling. It was pulling in the 5000lbs class in the video and I won both the 4000lbs and the 5000lbs that day. That was the first time day I tryed to pull in 4th gear and it worked well on that track. I think it was July 2007 and the pull was in Culpepper, Va.
