Back from Hutch after a 4 year absence.  Good to meet up with many of you again, it was a very good show and I got some great Allis stuff that I have been looking for for a long time.

Stopped at A&W Tractor in Cecil WI on my way to the show.  Great place!  Alex has a ton of parts - Used, NOS and repros, including repro parts that no one else has.  Picked up a new Nelson muffler for my WD45 diesel (still under construction), and a new repro swathboard assembly for my 82T mower, among other things.



Ever since I bought my 620 back in 2010, I have been looking for a stock seat in good condition.  Good ones are very hard to find.  Taking to a gentleman named Mike Brown at the show, he happened to have a NOS seat.   Unbelievable!  Expensive, but I just couldn't pass it up ...



And finally, the original toolbox on my 58 D14 has been rusting away for years, but I did not want to put a new repro toolbox on an original paint tractor.  It would stick out like a sore thumb.  Sure enough, Matt Scott had a couple of soild originals to choose from.  Washed and waxed it and it came out very close to the original paint surrounding it.



Great trip overall!  Going to pick up some WD45 rear wheel weights tomorrow too!  Going orange is going great!

I don't see what's wrong with your old toolbox Myron, you can get a lot in that and it'll never fill up!  Big smile
