Im just thinking here...

In 2008, i got this unstyled WC off a local farmer, if i would get rid of it, and see that it got a good home.

Its now 2010, and i still have it. It was badly stuck when i got it, but i took it apart and bought a used set of sleeves and pistons for it.

The thing is, its just been sitting here... Im really not that motivated to work on it, and im not sure how interested i really am in putting hundreds of dollars and houndreds of hours into a flattop... Im just not very interested in them...

Id really rather find someone who really has a thing for a nice unstyled tractor like this one, and is in a better financial position then i am, to get it, and give it the real restoration it deserves...

What id really like, is to trade this for a slightly newer tractor, and not orange tractor... I love the Allises, but so far, every tractor ive had has been orange... And something different might be nice...

Heres the good:

-Spokes and hubs are in good shape
-Engine complete (minus mag)
-Comes with all sheet metal, in good shape (backs of fenders need some tlc, toolbox shot, but free of major pits, rust holes, etc)
-I even have the starter tank, and massive carb

Heres the bad:

-needs new tires all the way around. All rims need TLC, lots of welding patches, or welding new rims to spokes
-Not running, engine in peices. I believe i have everything buy the mag.

But, for someone that wants a nice unstyled allis, this would be great...

But my question is, what could i trade this thing for?? Id love a tractor thats somewhat newer (1940s), and isnt another allis... lol...

What do you think i could get for it?? Like i said, id really like to trade it for something... Even an allis something, but no more Cs or Bs for me... lol... Anyone interested??

What do you mean by "flattop" ?

Is it a Wakashaw engine?  not sure of spelling.

Dusty flat top was just what some guys called the unstyled wc tractors because they are more square looking. And no this tractor does not have the waukeshaw engine in it.

Those rods would not fit Lanse's crank. He came up here and got a good WD crank and the other parts he needed. Every thing is there that is needed except a mag. I even gave him a rear round spoke wheel and tire to use . The front wheels are cut off round spokes that need REcutoff.  It is a 1935.
