    Posted: 29 Dec 2014 at 6:31pm
I just acuired a 720 and am trying to restore it. The deck on it is white in color and I have seen a few before that were painted orange. Can someone tell what color it should be or did they do both?

Thanks Charlie, I thought mine is a 1973 but not for sure. These are the numbers on the side but have not found out for sure what year it is.
Allis Chalmers 720 Serial and ID numbers.   1690073----001982
Is there a place I can go to find out?

There is no way to track the year through the serial number on these tractors.  620s had white decks, but most 720 decks I've seen are orange.

Thanks for all who responded. I sure am learning a lot about these old 720's. You would think there would be a way to find out the year they were made. I found a Simplicity that looks like my 720 except it has a different style hood (white in color) and the deck on it is orange. Are they worth about the same as the Allis model?
