Looks like they re-rotated the finals and put a lift kit in the front to even it out. Should be easy enough to fix if they didn't cut up the mounts for the frame.

It also looks like they shortened a C drawbar loop to fit the narrower B finals.

Its different, but why do that ? He could have traded it for two model B tractors.

That conversion wasn't done recently... I'd be willing to bet that if you look close enough, you'll find evidence suggesting that there was some sort of special implement mounted under the belly... like a scarifier, or a power-brush... something heavy, and used on a hard-surface.

Looks like a HIB (high IB) to me.
