Allis Chalmers C

Here is a current picture of the C getting ready for restoration this spring.

This is what the C looked like back in 1961.
Hope you enjoy Blake

Ya I have them I just haven't put them on yet. I do need to split it some time this winter because the rear oil seal leaks and the flywheel is having some issue cause the teeth on it are banged up. I want the flywheel to last me a long time so I am trying to figure out where to purchase one of good quality. Thanks Blake

You can replace the ring gear on the flywheel for about $35 from vendors on this site. JimD has one for $35 plus shipping. If the flywheel is burned from slipping clutch, let a machine shop resurface it and replace the clutch,pressure plate and throw out bearing while you have it apart. At minimum on the pressure plate have springs replaced.

Guessing you have the tool box around too. Looks pretty good. Lot better than mine.

I notice you have the Monroe-matic seat instead of the bench. Also, no roskshaft for cultivators, etc. Does seem to still have the lift lever. Do you have a hydraulic pump and PTO? If so, what were they using the hydraulics for? Sickle mower maybe? I noticed you don't have a drawbar. Is that a weight hanging under the footrest?

Seems you have a little CA grafted in here and there. Noticed it has been converted to distributor. Has the pull rod for starter instead of the push type from the older Cs. Think I would like the pull rod better myself. Like those wheel weights. I have a set that go on the opposite side of the wheel.

Could you maybe post a couple more pics of it? Maybe one from the back. I like looking at these little rascals. They have been customised and modified in so many ways, and like the B, they always still seem to look cool with just about any kind of mod(within reason.LOL). Good luck, and thanks for sharing.

I didn't do it! It was a short, fat, tall, skinny guy that looked like me!

Awesome looking tractor!!!!! Thanks for sharing!!!!

	Do you still have the fenders for it? If so it will be a very easy restoration. It looks like all she needs is a good coat of paint. I don't even see any body work that needs to be done. Good Luck.

	Thanks guys! Our local Agco dealership priced a ring gear for $50 with no tax or shipping and so our thinking is maybe it is a little better quality since Agco put their name on it. What do you guys think? I will post pictures later of some of the internal work we have done including getting the motor unstuck and also the sheet metal work on it did have some small dents in it and surface rust. We had a friend of ours straighten and prime the sheet metal.

	Here are some pictures of the motor work being done. We took a jack to the piston and after a little sweat we got the piston freed up. I will post pictures of the steering and some behind shots of the tractor tomorrow.
