Does anyone have any dealership or delivery photos of new W series and D series tractors when they were brand new? Thought maybe this could start an interesting thread. ------------- German Shepherd dad 1957 Allis Chalmers WD45 #WD234847 1951 Allis Chalmers WD #WD88193 |

AC WD45 What an excellent request, which would be very interesting viewing for Members. I remember our 1957 D17 arriving shinny and new and our WD 45 departing as a trade in on the deal. Later it was a D15 II in 1967 and a 185 in 1975. All tractors were delivered to our farm by the Dealer. I don't know the delivery mode to the Dealer. Here is an artist rendering of some beautiful Allis Chalmers tractors at a siding in Town on a Flatcar ready for Dealer/Customer pickup. I have it hanging in my garage! The picture was Allis Chalmers ad in a farm publication, probably in the mid/late sixties. I purchased the picture from an eBay supplier, who probably clipped it out of the magazine The picture is on page 91/92 of "AC Tractor Ads 1957-1985", by Tim Putt ( an excellent publication) This is the best I can do, but it would sure be great to see some real photo's  ------------- 1963 D17D Series III. 1965 D15 Series II. 1965 D17 Series IV. 1975 185. 1978 716H. 1979 716H. 1965 780 Harvester/1R&DC. 1957 Model 73 SC 4 Furrow Plow |
