Please identify JD garden tractor

This John Deere garden tractor lit itself on fire and burned off the hood and the ID tag. It has a hydrostatic transmission, a V2 liquid cooled engine with the radiator just ahead of the instrument panel, power steering, a heavy cast front axle, was probably built in 1998 (based on the date on the seat), and the hood is opened by pulling it slightly up and then forward and then pivoting it up from the back. The battery is low and in the front. The body is plastic. It has temperature and fuel level gauges, and a tilt steering wheel. It also has dual remote hydraulics. I can try to give more information if you tell me what to look for. Thanks for any information. Paul
 
345 or 445 come to mind, 345 = vertical crankshaft engine, 445 = horizontal crankshaft engine.
 
The replies are helping. It is a horizontal crankshaft and has a carburetor. The model might end with a 0, based on a little bit of hood that is still there.
 
I looked at the remains of the hood again. That is not a 0 at the end of the number. I don't know what it was. I also looked at the tire sizes. The rear are 10.50-12 and the fronts are 16x7.50-8. At this time I am guessing it is a 425.
