That is an obscure looking 2000, can't say I ever saw one like it, but as you mentioned your 4000 LCG, when I was a kid, we had a '64 4000 for many years, came from the NYS Thruway authority, was an S-0-S and my father had told me it was also an LCG model, which would make sense knowing that is was used to mow along the highway. Just going from memory, it did not appear much different, like later LCG models, ex. 2110, 4110, which really look the part of an LCG. We had a ford dealership for about 10 years, but after they went to the thousand series '65 and up, so I do remember some of the later ones new on the lot and or for delivery, I have always wondered what the deal was with LCG's prior to '65, like that model shown. I have seen the ones with dual rear wheels before. Our '64 had yellow fenders, the rest was blue, but was probably incorrect at that time. Incidentally, we used to cut rake and bale with that tractor, + many other tasks, it performed well for many years, pulled a 532 ford baler with kicker and wagon, surprisingly it did fine, I spent a lot of time mowing with a 5'-0" rotary mower, that independent pto and power steering sure was nice to have on that tractor.
