[AT] Unknown Allis

[charlie hill]

early B's had hand brakes and curved front axle.  curved axle was option on 
later models too.   IH and JD both made a model B.  That is probably why you 
found those on your search.

If it was about the size of a Cub and orange with wide front end it was most 
likely an early B.
