If it was running last summer, I'd guess it isn't stuck too tight. We got my '44 SC free w/marvel-it hadn't run for a couple of years & had exhaust covered & still stuck. Mag might be a problem-parts for Case Mags in our part of the world are REALLY hard to come by. You can use a Delco distributor for a Farmsmall on them, the kind where the cap sits @ right angle-we've had to do a couple like that. IMHO, I'd be more concerned about lack of air cleaner than it being stuck. Looks like a Char-Lynn pump. Don't remember how they were tied down. I'll ask my BIL, he had one. Wheels look right, even the front ones, from what I can see. They came w/steel & cast, we've got one of each, but pressed steel was more common, I think. The cast ones (probably only came w/eagle hitches) are 16" & came on my '54. They are not the same as a DC's. We got an extra set of weights - paid $37.50 for the pair at an auction, let ya have 'em for that, but ya gotta come & get 'em. It could also have about a 100# weight under the radiator. Ya gotta take 'em out w/bale hook & rad has to be off, or you REALLY got to be careful not to hurt the radiator. That one probably don't have it anymore, w/loader hanging on the front. (My $0.02 worth. jal-SD)
