Does anyone have any dealership or delivery photos of new W series and D series tractors when they were brand new?

Thought maybe this could start an interesting thread.

AC WD45

What an excellent request, which would be very interesting viewing for Members.  I remember our 1957 D17 arriving shinny and new and our WD 45 departing as a trade in on the deal. Later it was a D15 II in 1967 and a 185 in 1975.  All tractors were delivered to our farm by the Dealer.  I don't know the delivery mode to the Dealer.

Here is an artist rendering of some beautiful Allis Chalmers tractors at a siding in Town on a Flatcar ready for Dealer/Customer pickup. I have it hanging in my garage!  The picture was Allis Chalmers ad in a farm publication, probably in the mid/late sixties.  I purchased the picture from an eBay supplier, who probably clipped it out of the magazine

The picture is on page 91/92 of "AC Tractor Ads 1957-1985", by Tim Putt ( an excellent publication)

This is the best I can do, but it would sure be great to see some real photo's
