Very nice acquisition. The 3PTH appears to be an aftermarket hitch, and a good one at that. Appears to be very restorable, much better tin and more complete than my 2 D12 rehabs. You will really like it and soon find out it has too much power for it's weight. ------------- What this country needs is more unemployed politicians-and lawyers. Currently have: 1 D14 and a D15S2.

The picture is one from one that was on eBay (not mine). Mine is below and has a 3 PTH a little less than original. Had to redo the head, new brakes, cobble up a 3 point, new rubber, redo the fenders (they were really sorry), new hydraulic control (mine has the pump off the engine), and rebuild the pistons plus a lot of tinker type stuff (the decals are not what the correct police would want to see, but I like them). Its not yet "done" (think I need to redo the lower engine as it smokes some and the fuel gage leaked and bubbled up the paint around it). Other than that, I am impressed with the power in the little beast. It has the snappiest govenor of any Allis I have been around. Quite a nice bark when it kicks in.
