Folks, Several shots of two of our WD's before and after. Lots of folks on here and sponsors helped! Just wanted to do a little side by side comparison.
Dad's WD as found in shed.

Pulled out in the sun for the first time in many years.

Had no idea of the work it needed:) But it did run.

The wide front end WD set about 10 steps away from the first one but came home 2 years later (Spring 2014).



Very well used!

Some pictures of the WD's in the front yard yesterday evening.





Getting involved in the Allis Forum helped me a lot with these projects!
Regards, Chris

Thanks guys, Yes the wheel centers should be PO#1 also. Cream was just my choice of color combos. Think I will gas up and go for a little ride.:) Regards, Chris
