You just described a spreader I just bought. I can find no identifying marks anyplace on it, other than the unique hitch. The hitch has two rollers and sorta slides up the drawbar frame for 1 handed hitching. Mine is all metal with a wood floor. There is a rubber flap at the front where the chain comes in. The front piece of sheetmetal that supports the operating handles and makes up the forward section of the spreader box has an angle that points toward the tractor. The operating levers can be "adjusted" for different angles when used with different tractor models. The beater bars have single "spikes", rather than a single piece of metal bent to make two tines. Mine has 5 - 7 (not sure of the exact number) "blades" on the back, each seperately mounted bolted onto a common shaft. The apron chain is the standard 67H, not the international's long link. I know that mine is not a New Idea, Furgeson, IH, JD, or Allis Chalmers based on the beater design, sheetmetal at front, or the apron chain used. I was guessing it to be a David Bradley, but I haven't been able to find any information to prove this yet. The unique hitch would I.D. it pretty well. I didn't consider Case...
