I picked up this CA with a single front wheel yesterday. According to the "ALLIS-CHALMERS FARM TRACTORS AND CRAWLERS DATA BOOK", there were 460 CA's built with a single front wheel. According to the serial number, (22551), it is an early 1953. It is in pretty good shape and it runs good. The only drawback was it was a 15 hour round trip to get it!     |

| Not sure how well they work in the field, but I think the single front wheel is a really cool look and feature. |

It will probably never do any field work again. Maybe a few parades and a few antique tractor pulls. jaybmiller, the trailer is so nice to load on, I hate to take anything else. Besides, it's the smallest trailer I have. |

460 left factory with sfw. Does not include dealer swaps. No record of those but they still rare. ------------- Can't fix stupid |
