   Here it is...an Allis Chalmers model 200 GardenHandler.  Extremely "Rare", Series I, non-turbo, western flat-back...lol   This started out as a 712 shuttle. It has a 12 hp Kohler that's been slightly upgraded, and I customized the hood and grille. It's refinished with DuPont enamel in Persian #2. The cultivator is operated by a 2-way toggle switch mounted on the dash. The last photo is what it started as...

Looks very nice, I am hoping to built a mini 180 out of a 716 to go with my real 180 someday.  How did you find/make the decals?

That is sharp.  If I ever had the money, I think making a D21 out of a B112 would be neat too.

   Thanks for the compliments. I had the decals made at the local sign shop. I took them the dimensions I needed and an original 200 brochure, and I had them back in a couple of days. I got the remaining decals I needed, from Norm.  The cult. is an ATV attachment that is sold through TSC.  Thanks again, Eddie

    Thanks again, for all the compliments everyone. This 700 series doesn't make it easy to make a replica out of, just because of the big "eyebrow" at the front of the hood. You almost have to have a 720 to accomplish that, and they're not real easy to come by, or afford! Also with the hood being so short, there wasn't room to fit the "Allis Chalmers One-Ninety" in the spacing correctly, so 200 seemed the best bet. I cut the vertical panels out of a spare hood and welded them together to give me a straight edge across the front, and I found some ornamental metal sheeeting at Lowe's to form the 200 style grille with. I painted the chassis and engine solid orange to more replicate the 200. I modified the cultivator by putting the original front wheels off the 712 on it to give it a little more ground clearance.  Thanks again for the kind words, and good luck with your projects, Eddie    Here's some pics of the transformation...

Aaron, I had the same idea for my B-112. I was going to have decals made for it, and call it a D-2 1/2. LOL!
I didn't do it! It was a short, fat, tall, skinny guy that looked like me!

This may be a dumb question but here it goes anyways, will the garden tractor pull the cultivator?  I was wondering if you would have the traction, if it were made to be pulled by an ATV most likely it would have a live axles and 4WD.

Looks very nice.

    Jay...the rears are Dick Cepek giant puller 26x12x12, and the fronts are 4.00x8's. The fronts were a tire and wheel pkg. from Miller Tire in OH., that I got off Ebay...they incl. the hubs and center caps.
 
    Claus...we pulled the cultivator with a 16 hp tractor with turf tires ok...but I haven't had this rig in the dirt yet. If it ever stops raining here, maybe I'll get the chance to find out. 
 
    I've had a B110 in the works for a while now, that I'm trying to do the D21 look with. Hopefully, maybe I can have them both at Dale's this year.  Thanks again, Eddie
