wow that's a nice A ! Reminds me of the one I bought just for the tires,actually used it twice (still have some oats I gleaned...) then gave to Ron Buttrum on his 79th or 78th. A great Allis guy so I know it went to a 'good farm' ! Wife'd definitely kill me if it showed up here..... ------------- 3 D-14s,A-C forklift, B-112 Kubota BX23S lil' TOOT( The Other Orange Tractor) Never burn your bridges, unless you can walk on water |

| It is a nice combine, it does not need to go to China on a scrap boat. |

| I can't make out the serial number, but it looks like 20,000 something. I think it's newer than 1957 because of the engine, a G-230. In my mind that generation of engine didn't come until the D-19 tractor (G-262) in late 1960 or 61. Regardless, it would make someone a nice machine whatever the age. |

| It would have to be one of the last A because of long back, late spreader, oval fuel tank, wide rear axel, and late type (D19) manifold. MACK |

Serial looks like 20259 or 28259. Didn't A2s have the gauges on the right instead of steering wheel? ------------- 8070FWA,7080 BlackBelly, 7045,2 200s,D19,D17,G, WD,45,UC,7 AC mowers and lots more! "IT TAKES 3 JD's TO OUT DO AN ALLIS, 2 TO MATCH IT IN THE FIELD AND 1 FOR PARTS!" |

My 67 A2 had gages on rt console. It was a great little combine for it's size. 13ft platform with the hart carter floater added run off a M&W robot. Had a 3-30 corn head as well.It was tiny against the F2 I replaced it with.....which is small against the R62.

| looks like a late model A, the A2 have a flared grain tank, or that's what I look for |

Defiantly a late A. Steering wheel and rear says it's late. Not a AII which has the wider bin flare out. I've bought whole combines just to get the original drive tires for D-14/15's that I want to keep real original. ------------- Nothing is impossible if it is properly financed |

It for sure didn't go for scrap! I paid $500 for an A with a cab and three row 30" head and 12' pickup head, sold it for $900 to a guy that only wanted the machine with the corn head. Finally made money on a deal! |

Thanks for the link with the pictures  !! The tall/skinny header lift/V/S lever brings back great memories  !! Our A machine had a MEADE cab on it and wasn't white though  . It had a Hercules gas engine and an oval fuel tank on it though .
