Whew. Is it normal to be sweating while looking at such a beautiful tractor??? Your Great Grandpa would be proud. The AC oil filter makes a huge difference. Looks alot better than the Fram ones form TSC or the AGCO ones. ------------- 1937 WC, 1950 CA, 1959 D14, 1967 190XT, 2006 Ram 3500 |

| That filter is most likely from agco. At least the ones I get all have the allis logo on them. |

Absolutely beautiful! To me, the UC has got to be a classic iconic piece of AC heritage. And, your families restoration our this tractor is nothing short of first class. I see the allis-chalmers on the radiator, diamond decals on the side of the radiator, plus the diamond decal on the rear of the gas tank. Not that its needs anymore, but I am curious; did AC apply any other decals on this tractor or earlier models like it? Is there a decal or indication of the model ID anywhere besides in the serial number?

As far as I know, I don't know if they were actually factory or not, but I have seen Diamond Plates with UC cast on them that bolt to the side of the radiator. Would like to find a set if they should be on there.

As far as fenders go, story I got gramps had those done that way because of gettting them caught and crinkled in the barn and fench posts when loading manure with it, His theory was the tire would take the abuse better than the metal. I think they should had done that to all the UC's they look pretty cool. I wish I could have seen this beast with a loader on it. The crank is not fastened to front because of having a loader on it at one time too. This tractor also was caught on fire while my dad's father was fueling it, they figured it was a static charge that caused it. In 1957 is was traded for a D17, to be found an hour away is a guys tractor collection in 1984. Been back in the family ever since. this is the second time its been restored since we have had it back. Major thing this go around was all new skins. ------------- Pine Stock Farm "Home of the ALLIS" 35-WC-36-U-37-UC-47-C-49-G-57-D17-58-D17puller-63-D21-71-210puller-79-7045-83-8070-AA9675-BigTen-B10-310-1300fieldcult-snapcoupler imp.-longhopper blower,signs,etc. |
