Is this a forum member's tractor? Either way whoever done this did an excellent job. I found it on another one of my episodes of typing Allis-Chalmers into the Google box and seeing what comes up. LOL I also really like the magneto cover.  ------------- 1937 WC, 1950 CA, 1959 D14, 1967 190XT, 2006 Ram 3500 |

That's kinda interesting. The image is tagged "GDSF 08" anybody know where that might be? I'm thinking Europe somewhere. I guess I can answer my own question. http://www.gdsf.co.uk/visitors_information/location.aspx - http://www.gdsf.co.uk/visitors_information/location.aspx

Interesting battery location. Looks like there is no switch on the starter so maybe a switch at the battery to power the starter? I'd like to see more photos of the front axle. Bob@allisdowneast ------------- I used to think I was indecisive, but now I'm not sure. |

It doesn't look like it would turn very well. The door to the toolbox is on the opposite side. ------------- David Gibson http://www.darkecountysteam.com" rel="nofollow - http://www.darkecountysteam.com 1956 WD45 |

| Dorset Steam fair in England, It has a lucas starter with the english push button solenoid on the steering column, the front axle is series landrover and the drive is taken from a dropbox on the pto, seen it in person myself a few times. |

While we are looking at FWA Bs here is another I found. It is not FWA but it is articulated and appers to be at an Allis-Chalmers show. So this has a higher probability of being a forum members. Again this is an AWESOME job. This is the description for the pictrue. Not a true 4X4 but more of an articulated B. It was certainly a talking point at Marshalltown.  ------------- 1937 WC, 1950 CA, 1959 D14, 1967 190XT, 2006 Ram 3500 |

It also has the starter tank for a duel fuel, non pressurized rad, the toolbox for an early hand crank(no cut out for battery), a temp gauge(maybe added on) and foot brakes. Dave, do you know what the little cap on the right front of the hood is?
