I want a fender mounted radio for my B212. Where can I get one and how do they mount. Did Allis offer them as an option? ------------- B212, WD45, B, 912 Hydro |

As they were same ones sold & used on the farm tractors. ------------- 5 different TT-10's,5 TT-18's Terra Tigers,B-10,2 B-207's,B-110,2 B-112's,HB-112,B-210,B-212,HB212,2 Scamp's & Homilite T-10.

I can't imagine being able to hear the radio with the engine at full throttle.

With these new fangled phones with all the mumbo jumbo techno out there, if you wanted to listen to music, stick one of them there earphone jack thingies in yer' phone and listen to music that way wit' the phone in yer' shirt pocket if ya could. Like Myron said, I don't know how you would hear music anyway with a Kohler or a B/S crankin' along with a mower deck buzzen under ya. Imagine tryin' to hear music with a noisy Onan crankin' at 3600 rpm! Sheesh! Now there's a task! LOL!

yeah it would be loud!! my dad rebuilt the engine and now its cranking out 16 horses.. anyway, i would have earphones in. we have a local radio station that i cant get on my phone and not much of a tech guy, and it would look cool on the fender. what about the ford pickup? and would it connect to the battery box on the tractor or run on actual batteries ------------- B212, WD45, B, 912 Hydro |
