John Deere Model B, commonly referred to as "Poppin Johnie". This model is powered by a two-cylinder engine, with an operated hand clutch. Spent many hours on those hard seats. Usually started by hand spinning the side mounted belt drive drum.
For those that do not know, the term 'Red Neck' was coined to describe people who had a sun burn on the back of their exposed neck from working in the sun. Many were drivers of these kinds of tractors.

That is most definitely a John Deere--one of the old two-cylinder put-puts.

I thought a Model "B" J/D but I was WRONG a bit of searching I found a Model "50" that's very close to this one
The Model "B" had two front wheels and did not have the sliding adjustable rear axles.
