Got a new friend for Allis a while back. A 1967 Ford 3000 diesel made in Basildon England.
I'm always so busy haven't had much time to start refreshing the CA, but I finally started working on her yesterday.
Got the rotten old rear rims off it so I can put the new ones on.

I just pulled the whole assembly off, now I have to see if all the locks for power adjust rims will come lose.

Thanks. Hopefully some day the Allis will look that good.
It runs awesome, just doesn't look as nice. If it was all original wear and fade I wouldn't mind it, but it has had many years of rattle can touch ups.

Ah, rattle can touch-ups! My Dad like to do those, I just cringe when I see them. Not much I can do about them now though.

That is one nice 3000! Doesn't look as if it's had to do much hard work at all. The British made some good tractors during that time. Loved the little Fordson Dexta.

Thanks. Here is a crappy quality screen shot the previous owner sent me of it pulling  a set of discs in it's past lift prior to being repainted and freshened up.

I think he said they were 8 foot.
