She was pretty bummed when I sold the WD I was planning to restore for her. Ultimately it just needed too much to be worth the effort. So after looking around all summer a I got talking with a buddy of mine who is a local Allis guy, and he said come over I got something to show you. A few weeks later it was in my garage. Seems like a good runner, needs the carb/governor linkage addressed. Needs a brake job big time and the hand clutch either adjusted or rebuilt, and the paint is really slopped on over dirt and old paint, I don't think whoever painted it even used primer. So I suppose Ill sand blast it straighten the tin and give it a good coat of PO1. Should be a fun little project.  ------------- German Shepherd dad 1957 Allis Chalmers WD45 #WD234847 1951 Allis Chalmers WD #WD88193 |

You know, I'm not sure. It is not wired up. It starts and runs great on 6v though. I was planning on switching it to the correct generator. ------------- German Shepherd dad 1957 Allis Chalmers WD45 #WD234847 1951 Allis Chalmers WD #WD88193 |
