        hey guys im am new to this site and want to say thanks in advance for the help. i had a family member pass away my great grandma was a month away from being 103 the family is having to clean up the old farm and its been pretty overwhelming we have an old allis chalmers i believe its a grain drill but im not positive and don't know what year it is. it is old and in really good condition its clean inside the hoppers nothing is froze up and has been out of the weather over the years im not sure if everything is their it does look like its complete. i am trying to find it a new home but have no idea where to start not sure what to ask for a price or who to contact to try and sell i would hate to see it end up at the recycling yard but nobody in the family has room and or the use for it any more. i hope im not high jacking this post but i thought/hoping someone here can at least point me in the right direction i live out side portland oregon some of the pic didn't turn out too well but i hope it will be enough if you want to call or email ide be more than happy to talk thanks again TJ

Cal just downsized your picture so everyone could see it better. That is an old single disk grain drill and many times the amish people will buy that kind of stuff and use them with their horses... ... and others will put them out in a 'rock garden' and have flowers around them or in them. Sorry about your gram-mom not making 103... my gramps only made it to 97 an was working for a hundred.

Looks like a LaCrosse unit, book says steel boxes started 1938, ended 1940, not many sold perhaps due to the war...

Wow, I'd like to have that, but I'm sure it's worth more than what I have to spend. Plus the distance...
Definitely don't let that thing go as "yard art"...
