 Can anyone tell me if they made a sickle bar mower for the 720 and if so are there any around south-central Illinois?------------- 1937 WC, 1948 G,1954 CA,1956 WD45, 1967 D17, 1937 M crawler, 1963 D-19, 1966 190XT, 1967 D-15, 1948 HG42 Cletrac, 1955 G456 Terra Trac, CAT 10 1928 and CAT 22 1938 |

Yes, there is a sickle bar mower made for the 720. Here is a picture of my 720 with the sickle bar plus a finish mower on the back. Have no idea if there are any around. I found one in Minnesota and one in Michigan about 7 years ago but they were just too far away. Then one day there was one about 8 miles from home. That's the one I got for $500.00 which was the same price the other two wanted for theirs. You just never know.

Thanks a lot for everyone's reply. Den, it looks great and I may never find one but will keep looking. Saw a nice 720 at the Pontiac Ill show featuring Allis, not restored but pretty good shape. He wanted $3500 for it. Is that a reasonable price? Deck needed some work. ------------- 1937 WC, 1948 G,1954 CA,1956 WD45, 1967 D17, 1937 M crawler, 1963 D-19, 1966 190XT, 1967 D-15, 1948 HG42 Cletrac, 1955 G456 Terra Trac, CAT 10 1928 and CAT 22 1938 |

Lots of things to consider for $3500.00. Does it have the rear PTO and is it working....that's a $500.00 item. Otherwise it's in the range of what most are asking for...maybe just a little high. As for as I'm concerned (since I have 6 of them)...it's too cheap. LOL. Den ------------- Own 4 wheel 20, 2-5015, 5020 and associated equipment and 2 electric forklifts. |

| I have a 720 with a sickle mower,belly mower, front snow blower, rear rake, rotary tiller and loader. Its a good runner until today as for some reason it has no spark. I have been kicking around selling it. Any interest in the whole package? |

Looks like I need to live closer to Colorado I did look at Mr. Millers sale bill. Sure looks like a great sale. May have to try and make it there or put a phone bid in on some things. Can't swing the whole package but that would nice to have.
