Don't know but there was a guy at least 10 years ago that spoke at Racine MN tractor show that worked on Allis prototypes in the field back in late 60's on through the end I think. Anyone know who I'm talking about? I don't remember his name. He talked about the 210 and 220 being the most bullet proof tractors that AC built during his years there.

His name would be Larry. Met him this year. Ran the grounds for many years and is pictured in Norms soft cover book on his 220.

That would be Larry (Lawrence) Gruenberger.  I don't have current contact info but you can do an internet search.  Haven't seen him in years but we used to both work together and our families spent some time together on weekends.

He actually visited our school last week, (university of River Falls WI) and he gave a little presentation with a slide show and it was really neat.  I have heard him talk before and knew he was prior to it, but it was still interesting non the less.  His slides were awesome, and i seen some prototypes that i had never seen before, and i have seen many pics of prototypes.
