Those plow bottoms look like Oliver to me. And that's conceivable since the wheels are Oliver, as everyone points out. I bet you'll find a part number with a 219 or 419 stamped on the back of the moldboards.
If it was me and that was my grandparents' plow, I would leave it the way it is. Fix it so it's usable, but leave the incorrect wheels and bottoms on it. That way the plow is like your grandparents used. It got modified for a reason and when you restore it back to original it kind of loses it's soul, in my opinion. Modifications are what give old farm machinery character. Plus, it would be interesting to see at a show: John Deere green plow with red Oliver bottoms and Oliver green (I guess) wheels.
It had a tail wheel when new, but it probably didn't fit with the different plow bottoms, plus it still worked by riding on the heel casting of the landside.
