nw NC | JD No. 64 had a flat belt driven flywheel . Flat pulleys and belt were in front of the flywheel cutter housing . JD No. 6 & 12 had drive sheaves behind the flywheel cutter housing .
My father bought ( used ) a JD No. 64 chopper in the mid to late 50's. He pulled it with a Co-op E3 ( Cockshutt 30 ) until 1967 when he bought a 1967 International 504. Used it another year or two then he got a used JD No. 6 . JD No. 6 ( usually a one row) and No. 12 ( usually a two row) (both built same years) had a near two inch wide V- belt on large sheaves.
Both machines still here in the woods.
There was also a no. 8 but I do not know when it came along in the JD production line.
