| Hi I wanted to say Hi from Ohio. I've been reading this forum for a little while but never have posted. We bought a small 20 acre farm a few years ago so of course I had to buy a couple AC tractors to go with it. If I can figure out how to upload I will post some pics of my 175 and C. My dad also has jumped on the AC bandwagon and just bought a fixer upper C we went down and picked up on Wednesday. Thanks for all the knowledge shared. |

| I bought an old new idea pull behind sickle mower for the c but I think I would rather find an undermount bar for it. I've also thought about trying to find a loader for the 175 for the odd jobs to do around here. |

| Welcome to this AC forum, lots of good information on here. I started with a 175 and CA (much like your C) as well, can do a lot with those two! Kevin |

Steve "side weights and front weights on the C." I can see the Engine side weights you mention, but I can't seem to spot the 'front weights' you mention. Give a hint as to where they are located. G |

Welcome to the Unofficial Allis Chalmers Forum As you have found there is lots of information to be found here Really like the C you have. We did not see many wide fronts here in Maryland. Love the picture of your son. You know about 80 years ago I can see myself there. Take good care. Good Luck! Bill Long
