| Does anybody know the specs about the Crop-ALL? How much could it hold and what horse power tractor could run it?? ( A Farmall Super C or Allis WC ).. I want to grow buckwheat, barley, and millet will this combine do the job? Any info would be welcomed? |

There were several All Crop combines built. The 40 could match up good with a B or C, CA or even a Super C Farmall. The 60, 66, 72 and 90 would each probably need a little more power as you go up in size. A WC would do fine on the 60 but the hand clutch on a WD or 45 would probably really help if you run into tuff patches or weeds. The 60's and 66's I think were available with a BE or CE engine on them so you had live power to the combine, whatever tractor you pulled it with. ------------- http://www.ae-ta.com" rel="nofollow - http://www.ae-ta.com Lena 1935 WC12xxx, Willie 1951 CA6xx Dad bought new, 1954WD45 PS, 1960 D17 NF |

IMHO min horspower of 20 at the PTO for the 60/66. 72/90 might better off with a few more PTO horsepower.
The grains you speak of are childs play for this machine....

| Your choice of combine for those tractors should be based on the lay of the land that you intend to harvest. As Tom notes, a 20 HP tractor will probably handle a 60 just fine on hard flat ground. If there are hills or you have a wet year and some mud, you may need to use both tractors (one to run the combine, and the other to pull the combo through the mud or up the hill). You might say that this is the "original" live PTO setup. The 60 and 66 are generally the most common of the All-Crops, and many thousands of them were run with tractors like what you have. Charlie mentioned the 40, and while it is a good machine for small tractors (I have one and use it regularly), they are now difficult to find in true field ready condition. Add in the fact that new parts are difficult to find, and the 60 and 66 become the better option for anyone whose focus is on the crop rather than the machinery. You asked how much the all crops hold, and I assume you mean the bin size. Tom's website will give you all the particulars for the different models. |

An Allis "B" = #40 All-Crop, Allis "C" = #60 All-Crop, Allis "CA" = #66 All-Crop (I pulled my #90 with my "CA" with no problems). Once you get up to a "WD" and beyond it really doesn't matter what combine you use. The All-Crop will easliy your crops as well as 99 others.
This is a picture of my "CA" running a #90 All-Crop. If it comes up, if not I will start a new post.
  ------------- Thanks & God Bless Dennis |

Do you own an All Crop now, or are you in the market? I'd like to hear more about what you are hoping to do. Those All Crops are awesome machines!!!! How many acres are you going to harvest?
