Sounds like you got a WC. Styled WC's were made from 38 to 48 and had hand brakes. the sheet metal is very similar to the WD. Post a picture and maybe show us where you found the wd R-996.WC's also had a shifter that came straight up and then a bend with the longest part of the shifter bent toward the rear of the tractor. WD shifters were short straight up. The WD also had a lever opposite the throttle quadrant that ran the hydraulic valve. WC's had no hydraulics.

Beaker, are you sure that ser# doesn't say WC xxx? If you have hand brakes you most likely have a WC. They are very good tractors, but don't have a lot of the advancements that the WD had. Does the rear diff housing look kinda like what came from a heavy truck? Smooth and curvy? WD was more squared looking. WC was curvy.

Tractor number location for WC. http://people.clemson.edu/~wsmth/SNLocat/ACSN3.htm
Tractor number location for WD. http://people.clemson.edu/~wsmth/SNLocat/ACSN4.htm
You can see some of the differences between tractors by looking at these 2 links.
