Hey guys,

Im in the middle of restoring my late '40s B and would like some high resolution pics of the left and right side of the engine to use as a reference. My B is an electric start model and we are trying to be as close to factory as we can and keeping it a 6 volt system with a generator and magneto. If any of you guys have the same factory setup on your B or C would you mind posting some good hi-res close-up shots of the left and right side of the engine with the hood off, it would help me out alot and I would appreciate it very much.

Thanks,

Marc

Marc,

You can get a lot of nice pictures from Google images. While in Google images, just type Allis B in the search box.

Good luck,

Mike

Could you call out the item detail your after.

If you got to my link you can sort thru a bunch of pictures that might help. For the most part I have not sorted them real well so I would have to set and hunt.

Gotta agree with DickL. No problem, but just tell us what your looking for. Most often one who does not have pics available right away can still give you a good verbal answer.

Thanks for the replies, I am just looking for general close-up pics of the sides of the engine. This was my grandfathers B and being the depression era/old school US Marine/Machinist that he is he would fix and modify stuff his way so that the tractor would get the job done...also the tractor sat partially dismantled and exposed to the weather for the past 10 years. So the raveges of time, weather and my grandfather things have been removed/replaced/modified or missing. I am also incredibly OCD about the small details and thats why I was looking for the pics.
