The 10-18 was the first model. There are some 6-12's out there which was the second model built. Dusty ------------- 917 H, '48 G, '65 D-10 series III "Allis Express" |

| Glad to see he is not scared to drive it around like some are. I can't stand those trailer queens. Although they look nice, people tend to forget that they were meant to work to show off their beauty (both inside and out!). |

So, If I am correct Dave Pfouts would be # 1273 ? I see four of the 10-18's known of have no number, are these newer ? ------------- Randy Freshour,Member Indiana AC Partners, http://www.rumelyallis.com" rel="nofollow - http://www.rumelyallis.com |

There was a 10-18 that used to come to Amana several years ago. Don't know who owned it or where they were from though. ------------- "Any man who thinks he can be happy and prosperous by letting the government take care of him better take a closer look at the American Indian." Henry Ford |

I believe there is supposed to be a serial number on the cast metal plate below the radiator on the 10-18 and seems like I was told somewhere on the front of the frame but I may be mistaken.

REPDLP, The first 10-18, which I believe was the final prototype, was built in 1914. Production continued until 1923. No records are known to exist of serial numbers therefore specific dating of each tractor is unkown. According to Norm Swinford there was only one built in 1914. ------------- Randy Freshour,Member Indiana AC Partners, http://www.rumelyallis.com" rel="nofollow - http://www.rumelyallis.com |

I was just thinking, two of the surviving 6-12's are known to be model year 1919 and one of the 18-30's is a 1919. It is very possible the oldest surviving Allis Chalmers tractor might be a 6-12 or 18-30. ------------- Randy Freshour,Member Indiana AC Partners, http://www.rumelyallis.com" rel="nofollow - http://www.rumelyallis.com |
