Calling all Gibson Gurus - need some Help

We just found a Gibson Tractor near the house and bought it. I don't know much about these but I own around 35 Farmall Cubs. I would like to get it operating to assess it and then possibly restore it if not too much needed. I think it might be a Model "D" but not sure. I haven't found much info on the internet about Them. The motor is loose and it came with nothing else than what is on the tractor.
 

Sorry, phone problems. Here.....

I have a 1948 Model D Gibson. The serial number is American Ind. Wi-173-1. This because Gibson sold out to company called Amer. Ind. Mine has a Wisconsin engine AEH Serial number 2397766. The engine is a 6 hp. engine. These are a handy, fun to use little tractor. Don't be fooled about power because of the small engine. It is geared very well. Have fun with it. There is all kinds of info on the internet including a manual that you can download.

I put a new condenser in the magneto And she now has spark!! I pulled the rope about 30 times using starting fluid and fresh gas, and it popped twice. Maybe i can get it to start up and run!! Until I get it running good and tuned up I wish I had an electric starter!!
