I think the L4 has the 5.9 Cummins. There is no price listed. When I talked to the owner last July, he said that it was a very good and reliable machine. It replaced his L3. I'm not sure if he is retiring or upgrading. Has some other A-C things listed as well. ------------- Nothing is impossible if it is properly financed |

I knew there were some built in Mexico after they were droped from the Gleaner line but never saw one.
I knew a man who went to work for the co. that was building them after he lost his job with Allis. MACK

I called the guy last week. He really doesnt want too sell I think just advertised it too see if anyone is interested. He told me $50,000 with the pick-up head.
Calvin did you look at the cultivator he is selling? 30 ft that folds up but he doesnt know what model and has never seen another one like it?

I thought Gleaners did not get a green stripe until deutz ? And am I right that A-C M is for Allis Chalmers Mexico ? ------------- Randy Freshour,Member Indiana AC Partners, http://www.rumelyallis.com" rel="nofollow - http://www.rumelyallis.com |

The L4 was built by Allis-Chalmers Mexico after Deutz bought Allis Chalmers in the US. The AC Mexico I think was a separate small company. I don't know why they kept a green stripe. Maybe someone here can give the clear details on the company and why the green stripe. Weren't they built about 1990? ------------- -- --- .... .- -- -- .- -.. / .-- .- ... / .- / -- ..- .-. -.. . .-. .. -. --. / -.-. .... .. .-.. -.. / .-. .- .--. .. ... - Wink I am a Russian Bot |

Brad, I've never seen a cultivator like it either. It looks like something A-C bought and put their name on. It's very light like a drag harrow with wheels. I think it folds either back or forward. Can't remember. ------------- Nothing is impossible if it is properly financed |

Yes, the brochure I have is dated 1990, and I believe Russ-neia has posted a letter from Mr. Swenson dated Dec. 1990. I found my original Farm Show magazine article on the L4, but I didn't date it.

| Swenson from nortrhern ND spearheaded the project and the sales. I don't know who the financing was through. |
