My Dad just got his "new to him" All Crop 40 home tonight.  Neat little combine.
 
Only need a new set of canvas for it, otherwise in very good shape.
 
Thanks

I like it. Wish I had room to store one, then I'd have to find the cash.

Everytime I see a photo like this one it makes me glad that someone is saving our farming history and not junking it. Great job!! Ryan

It would be interesting to know why AC went away from the straight through design to the right angle design??

   I don't understand what your saying ? The 60 came out before the 40.

If I recall we were told - could have been a salesman's pitch - that the 90 degree turn caused a better separation then the straight through design.  Note how well the 60 could harvest the "hard to harvest" grains like clover seed and the like. 
Are they right I can't definitely state but I do remember hearing it.
Good Luck!

Nice looking 40!!!  They are neat little combines to operate.  Looks like you also got a windrow pickup attachment with it, very nice find.  The decals on the tank are in good condition and hopefully everything else is in just as good of condition as it looks.

Allis built a prototype straight through combine to try and replace the All Crop 60. It failed do the job as good as the 60 so it was scrubbed.

When I was a kid, 1948, the neighbors were all Farmall but they got an AC combine because they said the angle design did a better harvesting job. Bob

Hi,
 
Yes, we have the auger, but removed it for travel.  Also, it has a bad rust spot near the bottom.
 
Yes, we have a couple B's for it :)
 
Thanks for looking,
Thanks
