Now, THIS one we KNOW is a Pullford! Clearly a sales demonstrator. Note that the wheels on this one are smooth around the driving surface. Usual Pullfords and others, had some amount of cleats on the wheels to get traction in the fields. The demonstrator has the cleats removed to be driven more comfortably on graded roads out to demonstration sites.
A couple interesting details on that car. Notice the brass radiator underneath the later type black radiator shell. It looks like a standard black era T radiator shell, I wonder if they had a block-off panel over the front of the brass tank? It also appears to be a standard Ford black era hood. Several companies (Ames, Apco, Lawco, and several others) made and sold shells and hoods to fit over the brass era ones to update cars. However, these look like Ford issue items. The front fenders are also '15/'16 style, as is the windshield. It would appear the Pullford dealer wanted to update his demonstrator so as to not look out of date.
