Dad bought a WD similar to this many years ago. The rolls on his were over the regular tires (narrow front end).

The tall seat side rails and narrow front steering identify this as a model C.

If it was fun to pull in LOW gear, I could have a John Deere.
Real pullers don't have speed limits.
If you can't make it GO... make it SHINY

I cannot imagine how hard that steers and kicks back.

I wouldn't think you would get much compaction with it. A B (or C) would weigh about 2500 lbs. (+/-) When you take the amount of surface area of those rolls, there wouldn't be very many psi.

Lots of early sod farms had home made sod packers. Used what was at hand, cheap...
