Just wanted to say Hi,
I've been lurking for a while but I just got my first Allis yesterday so I thought I had better join. By the way she's a 1951 WD nothing rare but it's orange, well mostly orange.
Thanks to all that contribute on here I've learned alot.
Pete

| Welcome to the site Pete. You'll be hooked before you realise what's going on. This site will help insure that. For example, without the site, you might run into problems with your tractor that you can't solve by yourself. With no advice, or poor advice, you could end up frustrated and end up giving up on the project. But here, you can post what troubles you have, and within hours you have solutions. it keeps it interesting and gives a support network. Kinda like AA for tractor nuts. LOL! |

Thats pretty country down that way, we usually go camping once or twice a year down there, camp at Parker Dam and run the roads around Benezette, Renovo and through the state forest roads. I really like it down there.
