Most owners luck enough to find them selves steward of an Allis Chalmers A have been contacted or at least in the know of the gentleman in question. My father bought parts from him at some point in the 80s... I was wondering what the reaction would be to this... |

I'm more in your court Fred than anything else. There was many a derogatory comment made about drilling, for lack of a better word, us MN guys on parts in the early 90s. I'll be going to buy cheap if anything...

Never bought anything from the man, but he seemed like a nice enough fellow. I thoroughly enjoyed the tour of his collection when I was there. That would have been mid to late 90's. If that collection goes away that means there will no longer be a "Washington AC"!!!

Is this going to be a total liquidation selling absolute or just an "inventory reduction"?\

I only met Ernie once, at the Orange Spectacular. He seemed like a sociable fellow, his parts were pretty much priced to market as far as I could tell. He wasn't gonna give anything away though. .....So in that respect he's not unlike a lot of others who post here.... Can't fault them for that.
It would be an interesting auction to attend to say the least.

I notice in the article that he claims to own the only propane D 17 wheatland. In the posts about that tractor a few days ago, didn't someone say there were a few dozen made?
May have to go to that sale! |

Sometime when we are being sociable let me tell you the story about the day I spent with Ernie, Paul Pelton, Jack Gustafson and Norm Meinert driving across Minnesota! A few minutes spent with Ernie are not enough! LOL you have to have him captive with someone like Paul Pelton to ........stir up the conversation as it were! LOL I have never laughed so hard, even Norm Meinert was smiling. At the time I think Ernie was show a list of 300 tractors or more that he had available for sale.

My A came out of Ernie's collection, via 2 other people in Michigan before me, but that's as far back as I can trace it.

Seems like there was a Gathering Of the Orange in Washington Ks back in the 90's. I always wanted to go check out his museum.

The model that is listed as a 18-30 serial # 7810 IS NOT A 18-30,IT IS a 1926 year 20-35 Longfender. I seen this tractor in person 2 years ago when I picked up my L model 15-25 tractor that I bought from Alan Jones.

Wow, I didn't realize he had a Wauk WC. I wonder if this is a Waukesha XAH engine transplanted into a '34 WC, or if it has an authentic '33 serial number? The SN was not listed.

OK, Time to broaden my knowledge. Why are their two 30-60 tractors listed but I cant find a reference to this Model in Norm's bible or Terry Dean's Data book ?
Oh, and I noticed several of the serial numbers/years are not correct as listed. |
