They were made in the early 60's. I remember going to one of the schools on the D-10 & D-12 Industrial Introduction. Allis-Chalmers was desperately trying to get into the lucrative light Industrial market that Ford had successfully invented. Problem was these units were viewed as Farm Tractors even though they had been "beefed up as industrial units" and sales were very slow. Closed out the line in 1964 and moved onto the I-40 If you can get your hands on the book "Allis-Chalmers Construction Machinery and Industrial Equipment" by MR SWINFORD there is a chapter describing this. Good Luck! Bill Long

Did they keep any different serial number records from the ag tractors and the industrials before the i40? ------------- Absolutely love Allis Chalmers tractors D17 s4, D10 s3, D15 s2, 720, D17 forklift, 6080 2wd with cab, I40 backhoe, d12 industrial with backhoe and loader |
